Just 11 goals needed, now, for the draw. How long to go, Bat?

Much appreciated Bat.

After the siren, can you give us a quick rating of Sinclair, Seedsman, Kennedy and Greenwood's game. Thanks

Well, this was a waste of a perfectly good inside day, wasn't it?

Thanks Jezza. I was raised well. :)

Can't really recommend any senior player out there today with any enthusiasm. But we do have to make a couple of forced changes, so it'll really be the best of an ordinary bunch...

Sinclair - 4 or 5 out of 10. Had his moments. Suspect he'll get a re-call though...

Seedsman - 5 to 6 out of 10. Gave us some run and intercept marking at times and did some damage with his raking right boot, but the game was lost in the contested stakes, so there's only so much an outside can do in a game like that...

Kennedy - 6 out of 10. Fought all day and I suspect he'll end up our leading ball getter on the stat sheet, but he was overwhelmed in the end. I'd have him in, but I suspect you already knew that...

Greenwood - 4 out of 10. Failed to really fire, on a day that should have been his bread and butter. Was pretty dumb with his ball use at times, but he wasn't alone on that score. Can't recommend him on that outing, but suspect he'll be back in with Adams on holiday (idiot that he is)...

Slim pickings, I'm afraid...

Thanks Bat now back to your cave in Morwell.

To be honest cold damp days like this in winter often don't produce individual games of note.

Who knows perhaps we give Patty K one more chance and play him under the roof of docklands.
He's mad. He's bad. He's MaynHARD!

Like Blair, he can certainly kick a set-shot. But also just like Blair, he can't hit the broad side of a barn in play. Two different skills, you see... :wink:

But, the sun shines out of his backside, so I won't bother wasting my breath. Suspect he'll be straight back in next week, though...

Nah, I'm off to the pub. Then I'm off back home. :)
