Listening to the coverage, can we get chat going?

Got it here on ABC-TV.

I'm watching it on ABC-TV and am impressed with Clarke's play. I know all the talk is on Buckley, but on what I've scene, Clarke's certainly not hurting his chances of a recall to the Pies next week.

Murray Boyd reported - front on contact

[Babylove]

Number 26 just got reported.

Clarke is probably the Best So Far because he is a Gun

Good half by Willy, but really a team this strong should murder a stand alone side, shame we wont have a team like this for finals

As for Bucks, a good half by him but at the same time showed the right call was made to bring him back via the VFL to ease back into it and shake off some rust

[Dale61]

Why ES? Other than Licca and Presti, all other CFC players playing today qualify for VFL finals.

Buckley qualifies?

Bucks and Clarke will be back in the AFL side, Richards will be back in the VFL side Licca doesnt qualify unless the Pies are playing

But if they are at a similar strength to normal, where has this form been?

[ad4eva]

yep what eddie said.

the side fielded today should beat just about every side in the VFL.

Bucks - just want him to get through the game, solid effort thus far.

Iles - Just about best on for mine. Tearing it up through the middle.

Brown - Not too bad.

Presti - Not too bad.

Clarke - Made 1 or 2 mistakes but hes taking the game on and is playing well.

Stanley - Much like Iles, hes playing well and running straight at the ball.

Dawes - Two goals. Hasnt been that bad, hasnt had much delivery to him.

Reid - Delivery hasnt been the best but hes proving he can win the ball on the deck and playing well.

Licca - Getting plenty of the footy.

Toovey - Been good.

Cox - Still has that 'lazy' aspect of his game but hes been good too.

Davies - Finding plenty of it along with Iles, Stanley and Licca. Providing plenty of run.

Buckley meets the criteria to qualify for VFL finals. Never mind that it's Nathan Buckley - he still qualifies. Clarke would also go close to meeting the criteria for finals qualification.

Licca has played too many AFL games (or hasn't played enough VFL games) to qualify, so his season will be over in three weeks.
