Round 19 - Collingwood v Frankston (Merged threads)

[WKB]

Yeah it was certainly a case of Lachie Keefe looking a little bit tired (but kept attacking every contest) because he's been excellent all year, agile, athletic and a pretty good footy brain for one who doesn't have a big background in the game.

Another is Scott Reed he just keeps improving.

Whilst it wasn't the greatest game from the umps after half time they didn't have a huge influence thankfully. Though one funny moment was on the boundary line the when Rocca had his armed chopped in a marking contest, he turned around to the ump and shrugged his shoulders and said 'what about that' or something like that. The ump turns to him and says "it's in a spoil, there is going to be some chopping of the arms Anthony". Isn't that then a free kick?

And the fool playing for Frankston who was calling Rocca a has-been to put him off when having a shot for goal. Thought it was my duty to remind him it's better being a has-been than a never-was and that he was playing for Frankston and had no right to even be talking to Rocca.
This along with reminding the umpire he doesn't refer to Goldy as Goldy but instead as Tyson or Mr Goldsack. Goldy indeed.

I thought Rocca was impressive again today, not sure about him not being able to leap? He took some pretty handy grabs, didn't have to leap to many of the balls as he lead well or was too strong in the contest. He spent about 5 minutes at the start of the last qtr on the bench but played every other minute on the ground.

As someone who lives in Canberra and thus doesn't ever get to watch the VFL on the ABC, can I just give a big up to all the posters that give match reports for the VFL games. They are always concise but insightful. I really appreciate it!
Certainly makes a nice change from all the pissing and moaning that goes on on the main board

Well said Crackerjack. Sad, but true.

I really wish that Bryan was getting a game in the seniors!!! Sucks!! I like him as a player, really think he gives us some grunt!!! Always gives a second and third effort!!!
Hopefully they dont delist him at seasons end.

I think most of us like Bryan... will always give you 100%. His skill level isnt the best but he has his moments.

Unfortunatly i think he will not be at Collingwood next year. Infact he even says it himself.

thanks for the report guys. I like Big Chris as well Thought his efforts in the 07 Finals were commendable! Great to hear Goldsack and Steele had blinders!

Bryan was a sick joke in our last two finals losses.

mattys123 agree with Blight massive Future but needs more Development. Blair does have a bit of Brent Harvey about him.

Why did Rounds not Play?

[Dave The Man]

Keeffe might be getting tired after his first full-time season.

Speed and mobility definitely isn't a concern with him. I've seen him play defense before and he has done quite well.

He might just have had an off day.

Yeak Keeffe did looking to be a bit Tired but his Mobilty and Speed for a 204cm + Kid is Amazing. Needs to get Stronger and more Endurance

[Dave The Man]

the umps were that bad in the 3rd and 4th qtr its not funny

They hate us from us moving into Vic Park where the HQ are

Been Before but I thought it was the one I got off on but I did get there in the end

Its weird how people think he actually offers something.

He is a spud, who is too small for a Ruck and not good enough to be a forward in the AFL.
The VFL is where he belongs or maybe the NFL
