Wow. We look really well drilled. Our pressure is a standout. Kerr marking with class.

Jaksch has his 5th goal.

It appears that Casey are putting in a bit more: 2 goals to them this quarter.
Re: VFL 2017: Rd 5: Northern Blues vs Casey - Baggers - 05-14-2017
For those who couldn't watch the game... a few observations and thoughts:
Final. NBs 14.14.98 Casey 6.7.43
Better players for us (CFC listed):
Boekhorst, Macreadie, Jones, Buckley, Pickett, Sheehan and Polson - these were the blokes going in hard and working hard when the heat was on.
Deserve a mention as solid or better contributors:
Jaksch, Kerr, Phillips, Lamb, Sumner, Cuningham (once the heat went out of the game he did better), Korcheck, Gallucci, Kerridge (his disposal let's him down)
Rusty but hopefully better for the run:
Gorringe and Le Bois.
We relaxed a little in the final term kicking 2.2 to 4 straight.
Love to see Jones get a gig in the firsts... he's a bloody ripper down back.
Pickett looks better further up the field. Faded a little.
Gus is back. Reliable left footer. Hopefully gets a gig before the year is out.
Boekhorst should be BOG, best game I've seen from him.

I saw most of it thanks to LP's link, Baggers covered most of what I saw but Korchek impressed me.
He's still very raw but he times his jump well and knows how to use his body, he's not a real long shot in my opinion.

A mile ahead of Mason Cox.

Northern Blues are a really good team with good depth and will play finals this year.

Looks more of a natural footballer to me than Cox does.

Hope you're right pinot.
Certainly much improved from last year from the little I've seen.
Much in common with the 1's. More organized, intense, pressure acts, and dare I say it, skilled.
A lot to like.
Thought Sumner, KJ, BB, and Jones were great today. Kerr, Cunners, Sheehan, and Pickett building too.
NB's rise up the ladder was one of my criteria for success this year. Definitely heading in the right direction. Keep it coming.
Re: VFL 2017: Rd 5: Northern Blues vs Casey - Jeffy38 - 05-14-2017
Trick will be the senior listed fringe dwellers such as KJ, Jones, Buckley etc and whether or not they are as motivated later in the year.
A whole lotta right going on down at the club these days. We now have genuine choice, not all quality but plenty of guys putting their hands up
