Pros:
Kruze... :thumbsup:
Midfield
Defence
Robbo
1AW.... :thumbsup:
We are right now a very difficult team to beat....Swans will need a lot of luck and help from above to get near us next week....

Cons:

We still have much room for improvement with our forward 50 entires although bit better today....

Pro

A "workman like" and "professional" 10 goal win.
Spread of contributers.
Ball movement out of defence and general pressure over the ground.
Better going into F50 though still room for improvement.
Hendo, very, very good early.
Kreuz, welcome back Special K :thumbsup:
Tuohy, very impressed with his skills and composure.
Consolidated our position with 2 big games coming up.
You can almost taste the fear!!!

Pros:

Another solid, percentage-boosting win.
Defensively really solid until Jamo went off.
Really pleased with the games of Hammer, Henderson, Robbo, Ellard, Tuohy and Walker.
Thought Curnow showed a lot more this week. Great to get Kreuzer back in the side.

Cons:

Still a little wasteful in attack.
Would have liked to get a bit more game time and performance out of Bower.
Judd really needs to work on his goalkicking.

Pros
- Hendo: looked like he belonged out there
- Hammer: great mark and providing more around the ground
- Walker: does he ever miss?
- Kreuze: solid first game back
- Robbo: who else would get clobbered twice and still be able to play?
- Touhy: can kick and hit a target and how good was his goal!
- Big vocal crowd

Cons
- We got too cute at times
- Still leak a few easy goals
- Robbo reported
- It was @#$%&! freezing in there!

Hmmm, I hadn't noticed.

Cons - The lamb shanks were a little over cooked.

Pros - No Passengers

Cons - Whoever designed a stadium that faces the wrong way into the sun with the scoreboard directly in the sunshine

I think you will find he is working on it. All summer, extra sessions during bye week and any other time he is allowed. It must me frustrating him. At the moment he looks to give off more times than not.
Hope it clicks on grandfinal day.

Pros
Hard to pick a non-contributer
Many of our F50 entries hit a lead spot on - remember the days when we just could not hit a target and would just bomb it up?
Fast movement out of defence
It seems a while since we have criticised a kick in!

Cons
Robbo's report

Pro's
Awesome pressure on the opposition.
Robbo the human bowling ball.
Hendo's first quarter marking
Hammers grab

Con's
Robbo reported (should get off though)
Still a little sloppy with some forward entries.


Very soon our forward play will really click and we will slaughter somebody (quite possibly the Kangas in two weeks time).

They were getting into Tuohy as well. Quite a bit of aggro today.

I reckon we'll slaughter them too if we start in two weeks' time. They won't be showing up until July 29, round 19.

The stream was first class
Started at a civilized hour, 1010pm

Con
Had to get up early and go on a family picnic. (The early was the con, the picnic was a pro)
