Fergie snags a goal

Post by Kosh »

Fergie made that out of nothing. Marsh took off down the middle like a rocket, kicked an absolute pie and Tim Allen competed well to let Fergie in.

Marsh can't kick well at this stage but he has a crack and keeps it simple by just hacking the ball forward or bursting away from opponents with his pace.

Progressing nicely as a player and could be anything in time.

Disposal Efficiency & Free Kick count

Post by Kosh »

Is just me MB or are we being killed by the Umpires? Secondly, we look much better when we run and carry. We can't seem to move the ball cleanly by foot with any consistency.

Still, I will take a 9 point lead. On another note, Lynch looks shot today. I hope he is just having the second game back blues.

Karnezis getting plenty of the ball which is good.

He reminds me a bit of Embley from the eagles.

Has big potential just needs to want it enough.

I think Sinclair is really putting his hand up today for senior selection.

No it's not just you. Don't have the stats, but the mupetts haven't been kind to us so far...

Throw-in, our forward pocket.

Gets out the back.

Gray sells JT into trouble, but JT gets it away with a CLEVER handball!

Grundy, picks it up, dances around, open goal, GOAL!!!

42-27.

2 Goals in minute

Playing with real intent at the moment. Goals to Grundy & Mooney.
Grundy has lovely touch and balance for a big fella.

Good to see Q get a couple of early touches.
