It's only a practice match but, yes, we're playing with a lot more intensity than we have for a while. The new blokes have made a difference and McGovern may have found his niche.

The commentators said he was building confidence, he’d need to after that early kick in ! ?
Martin’s been quiet, O’Briens been patchy, Saad looks proppy but everyone has been cracking in.

In a game where the umps are red hot on chat and abuse, we have been exceptionally disciplined. A very good sign.
Re: AAMI Community Match vs Melbourne - DJC - 03-03-2022
Given that we're going with Parks and Williamson as our key forwards, I reckon we had the best of the third quarter ... and it's our defensive efforts and good ball use (both quick and measured) that's making the difference.
And then there's one Patrick Cripps revelling in having some serious midfield depth around him.
Re: AAMI Community Match vs Melbourne - DJC - 03-03-2022
Not a bad result, particularly in the way that we fought it out.
I think that it's worth acknowledging Lochie O'Brien's performance. He wasn't our best player but I don't think he made one mistake on the night.

Hewett will be the steal of the year.. ..
Re: AAMI Community Match vs Melbourne - Gointocarlton - 03-03-2022
Liked what I saw:
- definite increase hardness and contested footy.
- George and Cezz are great additions.
- Good to see a coaching group with half a clue.
- All without Weiters, Walshy, Prince Charles Doc, H and SOS for a half. Happy with that v the reigning Premiers.
- Skipper back to his best, to be expected without a broken back!
- Bam Bam to never go out of that side again.
- LOB showed a heap also.
- Durds is a beauty
- TDK will either take Mark of the Year or snap in half trying.
On the right track, Keep up the good work fellas.
Re: AAMI Community Match vs Melbourne - northernblue - 03-03-2022
I thought O’Brien contributed a fair bit, good and bad, but he kept cracking in.
So at 1/2 time we switched out Durdin, Harry, Gov, SOS, Ed (?).
A forward line with Williamson, Parkes and Plowman was a bit different.
They fought it out for a win, well done.
Pass me the cool aide…

Durdin was taken out of the game after a possible calf injury. Maybe it was just precautionary given it was just a praccie. If not, he'll be cursing his luck as it looked like he was making a move on senior selection.
TDK's leap is to die for. He doesn't seem to need a big run up to launch and that'll make him difficult to defend.
