A win is a win.
Our pressure for first 3 quarters was relentless
Moving the ball 45 degrees forward or across at worse instead of going back works
The connection by hand and foot was very good
Scored over 100 points with new game plan.
Not sure if we ran out of gas or Philips going out of the ruck had a huge impact.
Umpires had a little to do with Druggies momentum i the last.
We were able to control the last 5 minutes and take back the ascendancy.
Walsh > Shiel. Can bank we won that deal. Walsh not only amazing for a 1st year player, he was just amazing massing numbers and linking. Strong.
Philips is a good tap ruck man. Hope he stays fit. His mobility and marking around the ground were a bonus.
Cripps Fisher look like AA players. Do what they like
SPS has arrived. Time stands still when he has the ball.
Dow has goo speed, and looks to have recovered from minor surgery. His touch will improve.
Setterfield is the real deal and will only get better. He's the one I was hoping would stand up and he did.
Setters and Crippa in the middle with Fisher, Dow by their side are the future.
Setters will release Crippa forward and that means goals.
Weiters has stepped up.
3 talls in the backline stood up.
Newman is a great aquisition.
Really like Garletts run out of the back half.
Simmo, Newman and Garlett running ball get us going from defence.
3 Talls forward didn't do the damage we expected because they didn't play a full game together.
Talls were dangerous and Harry should have received more frees.
Small forwards Gibbons, Cuningham, Murphy are dangerous: 6 goals from crumbers.
Jack Silvagni belongs. Would have been great for him to start off with a goal because its usually a weapon.
He's strong, applies great pressure, footy IQ, tackles and is versatile.
Loved seeing what Cuningham and Jack do in the midfield.
We have plenty of mids to rotate through the guts and creat head aches for opposition when they go forward.
I guess we will see Kreuzer, Fasolo and OBrien added next game to put more pressure on positions.
Glad Stocker and TDK looked good in the VFL too. SOS has recruited really well.
Go Bluebaggers. I love youse all...
...and Bluegirl and AGRO, loved reading your commentary.
Great review as always BB.
Reminds me of Gibbs too as has been mentioned but more his body and face than his playing...which dunno..maybe a bit Selwood/Mitchell?
I think we witnessed the 1st full game of a future legend.
I thought agro was far too grouchy...we had to tie him to the bar a couple of times on account of the umps and..
Well EFC** in general.
I'm glad someone appreciated my reference to McGrath as that solo man from the 80's ads meets McGuyver/Barrassi.
What is up with this influx of moustaches eh? Even simmo. I blame Newcombe for starting it.
