Shame for the kid, needs to be on the park to stake a claim beyond 2014.

Hopefully it's not broken.

He just doesn't do enough defensively. He's good when he has the ball in hands, but a liability without it. He might be as good as Blair, but not Goldsack.

Martin will probably want to leave for more opportunity if someone offers him a lifeline.

You and me both probably believe he's better than Blair but don't tell anyone else.
It's like shooting Bambi...

Mmmmmmm, venison.....

Great mark by Adams. Horrible kick / decision by Kennedy. Hits the post from a tight angle.

Dwyer is a class above this level, understandably easing back from hip surgery... not too bad for a return game.

Dywer short to Kennedy.

BFK long into the pocket, GOOD mark!

It's Adams!

From tight on the line, 25m out... it bends back, HTP!

53-16.

Going okay. Bit about his development, bit about a lack of KPP options among senior listed players. Riddle and Hagney-Steart usually fill the void but neither playing.

With Gault injured we are going to be a bit light on for KP players.

Another terrible kick by Kennedy. Come on Ben.

Behind to them.

53-17.

Turnover in the middle, Martin long inside 50, 2 on 1 for the Pies, fall of the ball is Ferguson, look away handpass to Karnezis in the square, GOAL!

59-17.

More great hands by Adams and clever kick by Martin leads to a Joe the Goose for Karnezis.

If Armstrong gets a senior game, our season has gone to hell. Adams carving them up this quarter.

Armstron with a cockup turnover, Colyer snaps, Armstrong makes up for it by touching it on the line.

59-18.

Having watched him closely over the practice matches and early in the season, I've noticed a distinctive lift in his defensive game.

Not Blair-esque, but getting better...

Jetta misses a regulation set-shot.

59-19.
