VFL Round 17

[Pies2016]

Another to the Pies ( Husthwaite )
Pies lead by 21 points

[Pies2016]

20 min mark in the last. Horrible conditions.
Henry kicks a tough goal in the conditions from a free kick and that’s his fourth. Pies by 20 points 95 - 75
Callum Brown with a strong second half at the bottom of the packs.

[Pies2016]

Another to Pies ( Glover ) at 25 min mark. Pies by 26 points and the wind is to strong for Port to get it forward.

Jetta kicks his first goal in a Pies jumper for a 33 point win

[Pies2016]

Final scores : Pies 108 - Port 75

Lot to like today, albeit Port remain anchored in the bottom third of the ladder.
Murley did some nice things and from what I have seen, easily Drapers best game. The Browns accumulated as always, although Tyler was much more positive with his ball use. Kelly was good down back.
Henry kicked well with 4 . 2 in tricky conditions but maybe should have capitalised further considering the opposition. Poulter and MacRae were both useful but neither were stand outs.
Convincing win except for a lapse in the third when the wind really picked up and it favoured Port

Thanks for the report, in the few VFL games I've seen, some of the things Murley does has impressed me, also pleasing to hear draper had a good game

Murley & Draper are developing very nicely and will add depth to the team in 2023. Harvey Harrison was named as an emergency earlier this year but is out with a hamstring injury at the moment.
Poulter plays to a consistent standard but doesn't look to have improved since he first arrived at the club last year which is a bit disappointing. Perhaps he just needs another pre-season to get under his belt to lift his standard to be in line to break into the senior team again.
Fin Macrae also looks to have stagnated at last year's level, albeit he did show some class to kick a lovely goal while streaming out of the center clearance in the first quarter today.
All five of the above youngster's will hopefully have strong finish to this season and big pre-seasons to push for senior games early in 2023.

I'm curious about Henry. We know he can kick goals, especially at this level, but he really needs to add another string to his bow, whether it's forward pressure, working up the ground as a link up player or one on one body work. Right now, he's just too one dimensional.

I only caught the last quarter, liked what I saw. shitfull weather in patches, good win in the circumstances.
