Was buckleys kick some sort of sick joke?

Jones and Watto going good

Pretty good first half from such a patched together and inexperienced team.

February, I know, but it would be nice to see us do a better job of spreading from the contest both offensively and defensively.
Individually Jaksch has done nice things. I like that Graham is smart with the footy and Bell's work rate is great. On the flip side, Wood hasn't impressed me in the ruck, White needs to be smarter with ball in hand and most of the new guys have been quiet.

I took the 'check a YT link' challenge. Nothing of consequence happened except 1) I was told I wasn't authorised to view that forum and 2) you've likely installed malicious code that's probably totally downloaded my whole phone to the internet. I know your type.

We should never have staged that rally for him.

The Eagles outfit does have weaknesses but most have been in the system for a long time and it shows.

We have a few freshly minted running around which kills.

Pretty obvious from the ground that a lot of the guys haven't got their roles down and they certainly don't know each other.
The Eagles know their drills.

Was that Byrne who chased down the eagle at the siren. Great effort.

Other than that we look a bit meh.

Don't take much from this game. Just enjoy watching some of the younger guys run around.

Let it go..

Bell and Buckley are both hard at it. Both had patches there that won't show up on the stats sheet but will feature in the post-game highlights in the rooms.
I haven't seen much from any of the recruits that makes me want to jump about. We have a few with no possessions.
Yarran is all class.
The result doesn't matter. It's about getting the fitness base up a notch, getting the awareness levels and timing back and not getting inured.

The international stream has dropped out here.
It's a learning curve for everybody, including the broadcasters.

Pretty sure it was Bell.

Couldn't be.

I hear he's shit.

Yarran's awareness levels are crap!
Worse than Bell's

Out of respect for his former club Lucas lays a very soft tackle.

Non-existant forward line pressure.

Given Eagles played the Indigenous game, assuming the foot gets taken off the pedal later on/
