Kennedy and Marsh continue to impress me.

For someone who hasn't attended the VFL for years the match day experience is fantastic. Very old school and natural when it comes to the crowd and the whole fabric of the experience.

Fas and Benken best so far... Shaz starting to show composure down back.

Marsh could be a gun in 2-3 years.

Does Cox know he's sposed to tap to Collingwood players :?

What is Fasolo doing out here instead of on the other side of Yarra Park preparing for the main game?

Also can someone there injure Tony Armstrong? Nothing too bad, just enough to miss the rest of the season

Fas is doing okay. Working harder than last week, IMO, and he's really causing the Tigers some headaches.

Also, can't go along with your call on Armstrong. Hasn't been all that good, yes, but wishing injury on a guy is poor form, man. We need all hands fit and at the ready. That being said, he won't be troubling the selectors any timd soon...

Carey, Brown and King.

You are such a shit bloke, it's embarrassing you "barrack" for Collingwood. Why don't you work in how much you love Clokey and hate Maxy just to complete your shitness.

Fasolo is providing plenty up forward but the guy is way too inconsistent for my liking and his good form now probably won't translate into good performances in the seniors.

Kennedy isn't too far away from playing in the senior side my opinion. He's not dominating but he's been very solid as well. Jonathan Marsh is the one that standouts that could prove to be a great player if he's consistent. His attitude toward the contest is outstanding and that smother in the second quarter was excellent.

Seems to be playing a bit higher up the ground, also seeing a few of our goals we seemed to be pushing up a lot more anyway.

I thought he was good last week as a small forward, but this week a lot more rounded game. I just love his skill and his smarts in setting up a few goals today has been great. He may have lost his old selfishness, when he first arrived he would never pass inside 50!

Probably a bit harsh, but we cant drop him any further! I'm amazed he is still on the list at tbh.

Ch 7 reporting that Fasolo has been sent to the G as an emergency.
