That snap for his fourth was a bit hungry, could have laid it off by hand. Doesn't look a natural forward, but I'll take any goal we can get

I think the scoreline creates an illusion of proximity. It was a pretty dominant performance by the lads. All the key statistical indicators were very much in our favour. We led the entire match. Well done to all concerned.
A sterner test awaits in a few days time.

I was sitting in a dentist chair in Thailand until 1/2 time, good solid win by the boys.
The backline were rock solid for most of the last.
When Charlie wants the ball he is unstoppable.
Was Owies subbed for injury or just a rest ?

Voss a bit unsure with some of the umpiring decisions... so is going to seek clarification.
Kind of suggested that while he's happy with the Pitto/TDK combination and that they are developing well, TDK's efforts "have given us a lot to think about" which may suggest...."they have a lot to think about" going forward.
I don't think anything is set in stone.

I dont know why they didn't park TDK in the goal square for his rest instead of the bench (like the resting ruckman did in the good old days). Sometimes old is new.
No, Tom didn’t get smashed in the ruck. Witts got more hitouts but few ended up as GC clearances. Most of Tom’s hitouts resulted in a clearance to us, and Tom’s second and third efforts at stoppages played a big part in that.
Tom had twice as many effective disposals than Witts and took important marks around the ground. Witts was a virtually a non-event around the ground, apart from the goal he was gifted.
From what I could see, Tom went to the bench for running repairs and because he had no gas in his tank.

Umpiring - I don't want to go there, but the numbers don't lie: we had 3 frees in three quarters of the game. That is just ridiculous.

I don’t want to say much either. But.
Watched the game without reference to stats. It seemed we totally dominated possession and won the contest convincingly. Yet, had 2 - 12 frees just short of 3q time. With about 10 mins remaining, we seemed to get a few frees. As if... by instruction. Bizarre to watch in that sense ?

Umpiring was ridiculous today - up until 3/4 time, we had received 3 frees...... Must have been at least 4 or 5 times where GCS players just lost the ball while being tackled - and it took until the last minute to get a free kick.....

Hats off to Saad, Cow, and Fogarty on return.
Our mids were all fantastic. Crippa, Walsh, Acres, George, MK. Both Hollands had a great game.
Our defence picked up where they left off, despite no continuity. I think it allowed for a bit of coaching creativity. Kemp building nicely
Loved ZW down forward. Task: do what H and Charlie say. Top performance. Harry's movement up the ground creates opportunities that will trouble opponents
Overall, our kicking cost us early despite being dominant. Once we straightened that up, we were convincing.
The most pleasing parts
- successful return from injury/omission
- tough hunter attitude across all lines
- team flexibility
Go Blues
