I expect a reasonable crowd at this one. I will try to get near the bench again so I can hear what goes on.
Live Long and Prosper!

Big Harry is putting on a show.  Bad luck the winds playing havoc with some of his kicks for goal.

Tiggers win by 22 pts, pretty good considering we gave them a 6 goal start! Awful first qtr. Our blokes had a real problem kicking for goal at the southern end due to the wind.

Worried: Gus Sheehan, who was playing well, didn't reappear after half time.

Graham was probably our best. Palmer did his job.

Good news: Harry McKay, finally saw him in full flight. Actually took ahold of the game in the 3rd qtr. Covered a lot of ground taking marks on the wing as well as up forward. Looked really good.

Encouraging: Silvagni, Polson, Kerr, Fisher,

Jaksch was okay when he could run straight at the aggot. Jones took some very good grabs, more stuff for his highlights reel.

Concerned: Cuningham. He did some really impressive, creative things including the steal of the century which resulted in a goal. Great disposal. But then he lets himself down with a lack of intensity, poor defensive skills and has the questionable gift of going missing whilst on the field!

JGM, very average.

Buckley, so so.

Korcheck, the big fella laid some really impressive tackles... but dropped some easy marks...

Sumner, ordinary.

....and thats why Daisy was picked instead of him tonight.

Effort and defensive pressure gets you games. He needs to lift in this area.
