Underway here at Vic Park.

Pies to the Sherrin Stand end.

Pies looking splendid in the white clash top with black shorts. Very 1990.

Armstrong inside 50, finds Corr.

Comes in from 30m, DIF... misses.

1-0.

Boundary throw in, Bob Rose pocket.

Lynch, palms it straight down to Thomas, breaks a tackle, burts through congestion, slots the GOAL!

7-0.

6 gone...

Touched behind off the deck to the Gold.

Yagmoor gets caught. And a 50m penalty sees the Gold with a shot on goal.

Which misses.

7-2.

Pies go again inside 50, CORR!

Good use of the body.

Deserves a goal...

... and he gets it!

19-2.

Early thoughts...

- Lynch our #1 ruck. Beating his opponents and covering the ground well. Some very clever tap downs.

- Ramsay looks completely out of his depth.

- Armstrong has had 3 good kicks, all within the first 10 minutes or so, then nothing.

- Thomas is looking good at the stoppages and at the fall of the ball inside 50. Well and truly putting his hand up for Sydney.

- Dwyer's tackling has been very good.

- Kennedy has been lively, particularly at ground level, but has butchered a bit of it.

- Yagmoor has been useless.

- Really like Corr's game at full forward. Good bodywork and ability to find some space.

- Keeffe has been solid. Doing double duty at CHB and as the 2nd ruck to Lynch.

Yep. Hasn't seen all that much of it so far, by my count. Most notable moment is when he sold candy once, tried again, got caught unawares.

Nice pass by Fasolo, puts it up into space for Dwyer to run under it and mark!

From 45, 45 degrees... GOAL!

26-2.

Thanks MB for your fine work once again.

Keeps those of us who can't get to the game well informed.

Cheers.
