VFL - Round 1 vs Franga @ Franga, 2pm Saturday 7 April 2018 — NO FRANGA!

Guelfi is dumb. Takes an uncontested mark five metres out from goal after siren, instead of letting it bounce through.

13.10.88 leads 6.4.40 at three quarter time.

Delist

Very light breeze, no excuse for letting them try to come back in the last quarter.

Clearances +13 to us, 70% our forward end that quarter.

This is the thing. He plays as a tall. Albeit with a better ability to cover the ground.
If he is to make it in the seniors it would have to be at the expense of Stewart, Daniher or Hooker.

I think long term he can be a mid but his preparations are always being interrupted so he’s struggling to cross that hump where he has the continuity, fitness and confidence behind him to transition from a forward to a guy who can play genuine on-ball minutes at AFL level.

@Paul_Cousins still loitering in the huddle, we can’t get rid of him!

Regarding Lang’s positioning at stoppages, he was rarely the guy who would position himself at the foot of the ruckman but would be a few meters off the stoppage. He would engage his opponent push off and hope for the spill of the ball. He played a bit of wing that quarter too.

Redman gone forward, hmmm.

LAV done for the day?

Bezerk Thatcher leaves his man to knock it to the boundary. Good stuff.

Younan keeps our momentum flowing with an early goal.

94-40

FINISH THEM!

Great lead and mark by Younan. At pace clunk. Falls short but the rebound is taken by Terence Trent Darby. Slots it from outside fifty!

And now Younan gets another!
