Oh, and like our seniors, red time goals to the opposition, never to us.

Thanks for the updates so far MB! Great start by the side but we've obviously fallen away in the second quarter.

Two questions:
1). Who have been our best players so far?
2). How's Greenwood and Kennedy going?

1). Marsh excellent, Karnezis, Seedsman, Moloney, Hellier all very good, Kennedy has had his moments, Sinclair and Dwyer have been reasonably good too.

2). Greenwood has been okay, but not dominant, as he really should be at this level and in these conditions. Again, Kennedy has had his moments, but has been a bit unlucky in the free kick department.

Agree. We just don't have the cattle. Still was a huge loss.

Thanks for answering my questions MB!

It's somewhat disappointing to hear that Greenwood isn't dominant but maybe he'll be better in the second half.

I get the impression he's the type of player that can come into the senior side and already slot in nicely regardless of his form in the reserves for example. With Adams likely to be suspended bringing in Greenwood or Kennedy for that matter may be essential for next week's match against the Eagles.

Moloney roves beautifully, snap around the body... misses.
