Brent Stanton 250 games and a win to boot! Two weeks in a row we have won milestone games, great stuff.
Two boys, well done Stants! Good to see he is keeping up our stocks of Father/Son picks. The boys get a taste of running through the banner with their old man.
Raz - 5 sausage rolls for Razzle Dazzle. Just how good is this young fella going to be? He has great hands and can take overhead marks or marks out in front at full pace. Soft hands just stick! His kicking is fantastic, his high leg action follow through sees the ball go straight between the goal posts and as we saw last week he can snap them from anywhere. Four goals in Rd 1, five goals in Rd 2, how many in Rd 3 against Fark Carlton?
Loves a goal celebration does our Raz and oh how we like celebrating them with him! The boys are really enjoying their footy at the moment and the team bond looks really strong.
Heppell – solid Captains game, missed a couple of goals he would normally drill, but still building into match fitness and intensity. Suprising that there aren’t more pics of him as those golden locks normally see him hogging the limelight.
Jobe - super last quarter, just keep dragging us along. 3 goal assists for the champion. 33 disposals at 75.8%DE. Like Hepp, he is building back into the game and blowing out the cobwebs.
Old man Kelly. Still playing out of his skin. So solid in everything he does. Loved the tackle and holding the ball against Hipwood and then gives him something to think about afterwards.
Darcy Parish - keeps on going like the Energizer bunny. You don’t escape his tackles, has spent plenty of time as a young bloke catching sheep in the yards.
Joe the Mo - huge mark in the first and then kicked his goals straight through the middle. 3 goalsNo mucking around tonight from the big fella. Even went into the ruck to quell Martin’s influence in the 3rd and last quarter after he got on top of Smack. Eight marks, three inside 50.
Smack - competed hard but had his colours lowered in the ruck by a very good ruckman for a about 1/2 an hour. Got some of his mojo back in the last, but still only a stop gap until we have a real ruckman available.
Harts - played a solid game down back. Some great spoils, but was out stretched/reached a few times by Hipwood. Mind you who wouldn’t be? 13 1%ers, highest on the ground by seven, shows how hard he works off the ball. Took some nice grabs (8) and we are still yet to see him unload with the super boot we know he has. Another weapon that has yet to be deployed. No need to show everything at once.
