I said to Mrs Caz on the way home..........it was a 9 goal win, that felt like 5 and should have been 15.

6 is better than 5-1.

Pros:

Built the lead early. Put the hammer down late.
Shared the goals around.
Ainsworth, Cowan, Hayward, Jagga, Walsh, Harry, Byrne.
Nice to see Harry and Byrne get mini-bags. Got to be good for their goalkicking confidence.
Nice to see Ison more involved.

Cons:

Low pressure game not great prep for coming games.
Inaccuracy.
Kemp pretty quiet.
Ison continues to have minor yips in front of goal.

I guess this is why the kids love bubble ice tea, they’re too immature to deal with the sugar hit :grin:

I agree 100%.

Very frustrating to see so much dominance not rewarded with poor efficiency at goal. By my count, conservatively, we left at least 6 goals out there.

Josh - get them on some goal kicking practice please :)

Love 6 wins in a row of course, but we need to get more ruthless and bury teams - especially poor ones, when we have the opportunity.

Love the fact that our kids brigade - Jagga, Byrne, Ison, Wilson, Cowan and Dean (I especially love his agro) all played well again

Onwards and upwards

Tigers next week, and really we should be looking to bank 7 in a row :)

i like the handball chains, but we missed a lot of targets, should have been a 15 goal win

all the kids were great

Started great. West Coast to their credit ramped it up on the second quarter but we held up and finished the half strong. We came out after half time flat as a tack. It was the first time I can remember seeing it under Fraser, but it was there again and took a spark firstly from Byrne and then a ripping effort from Harry Dean to start an end to end chain to wake us up. Little bit of a concern to see it and for a moment I felt like I'd stepped back in time a couple of months.

The pleasing thing was that we did finish the quarter well and I think still won it. More pleasing was finishing a game off for a change. I think the final margin was the biggest of the day.

We had contributors across all lines. Cripps, Walsh, Hewitt and Jagga are humming at the moment. Cerra continues to improve too, and is getting back towards his best.

Harry Dean is awesome. He is fast becoming my favourite player.

Byrne is a little bit better every week. There's something about this kid. That snap in the second quarter today was a gem. Could be a chance for the RS nom this week.

Couple of concerns. Pitto got killed today. He's a battler, but we need better. Williams ain't Max Gawn, but he comfortably had the better of our man.

Kemp. Becoming the whipping boy. Does a couple of nice things every game but also does plenty that leaves you shaking your head. More of the latter than the former.

Ison has made a solid start and a little more involved today but think he needs a spell. He's very laconic. And has the absolute yips in front of goal. Fraser pointed to selection integrity through the week. That needs to include those that are struggling in the 1sts.

Overall very happy with 6 on the trot. Hopefully that becomes 7... or 8 or 9

1:15 pm on a Saturday- it felt like an off Broadway Matinee show where you turn up expecting to see Bette Midler but instead you get the understudy.

They were good again and once again left a few out there.
With the exception of Kemp it was the best all round team performance in a very long time.

I often wonder how long it will take to get that sick feeling that comes over you when the opposition kicks a couple in a row after we have missed a set shot.

Every time we get a couple kick against us you think he we go again.

Credit where credit is due the team seems now to have the ability to change the tempo and stop the run on.

On another note Harley Read would be the best player in the comp in a better side

Hope our 1056 guests enjoyed that. Bluedog, do tell us how you managed to keep posting.

According to afl.com.au stats, the best 14 players on the park were in navy blue. According to supercoach it was ten.

Listened on radio, as I will every week until StK in R22... thanks Vossy for taking us off Broadway.

Looking forward to replay.

Felt a bit funny at the ground because for the most part the margin was in the 20s but felt like it should have been 50s. Nice to boost it with some goals at the end.

We really controlled possession once again, albeit against inferior opposition. Training drill stuff at times.

We all see the game differently & I thought kemp's efforts were good but for little reward. And I didn't mind Pitto's game either.

That number 26 for West Coast kicked an absolute ripper goal in Q2 I think it was.

No injuries again although did Hayward have a bit of a niggle at one stage?
