From 35 out, DIF, kicks the GOAL!

Credit where credit is due, that was actually a nice kick...

Great to hear Kennedy's going well. Could get a spot as a small forward. Can't think of any other possible inclusions for this role ;).
Well done boys!

Those of us who witnessed that can die happy - we've finally seen him kick forward of the contest. Also, he's been much better than Martin up forward in the second quarter. You knockers will probably say that's just because Kyle was playing on the wing....

Martin, Karnecis and Marsh

Post by Kosh »

Martin has been splendid today. Marsh has done few things which are just amazing. I cant wait for him to tear a game apart. Karnezis will play seniors as soon as he is fit. He is a terrific finisher.

Kennedy's been playing midfield.

Your routine needs a bit of work, but points for trying... :wink:

You might think that, I couldn't possibly comment... :wink:

Hey MB, how is the defensive side of (1) Martin and (2) Patty K's game? This will be a key consideration and they may be competing for a spot soon, right?

Midfield in the VFL. In the seniors he'll rotate between the forward line and the centre.

Seriously, he's the one we need to step up. Just the type we are looking for at the moment, quick and creative. And creativity is something our forward line needs more of. Kennedy and Fasolo are the two most likely to provide it, though I hear Armstrong's playing forward now? Interesting :D.

1) Marto's defensive game, particularly in the 1st qtr, has been very good. Not ultra-ultra-ultra-defensive, but good enough for mine, even when you discount my love of the bloke.

2) I've really liked Patty's game. Very slippery when tackled. Has presented really well and set shot kicking has been excellent. Hasn't really stood out defensively for mine, which is a concern, so he needs to put a good bit of work into that.

Karnezis can't mark the JT kick, tracks it back to the line, keeps it in, shrugs the tackle, can't beat another, over the top to Adams, kick smothered in the qsquare, gets it back, bang, GOAL!

97-22.

That was what I saw in Brisbane. Great finisher, but questionable tank and defensive effort almost non existent. If we can improve his fitness and get a bit of Goldies manic forward pressure into him we have a star on our hands.

Sigh, your continued provocation is getting a little tedious.

Martin has played equal parts middle and forward, with a little bit of wing/half back in there as well. But he'll get no credit from you, so I give up trying to persuade you to give it.

Armstrong's only playing forward because his teammates (including Martin) have stopped the ball from getting down there. Have to pad his stats somehow...
