The only players that slightly stood out for the blues was a chap called Tim Wilson (number 1) - he played like Ballantyne and Tom Fields whose kicking range is enormous, although he often kicked it over his teammates heads.
Blaine Johnson can't kick period.
Kristina jaksch can't cut the mustard in the 2s - looks like Luke Livingston mark 2.
Watson spent all day behind his man. Boy, is he slow!
Whiley, ellard, Walsh were slow and ineffective.
J foster looked ok and moved well, but needs 2 pre-seasons in the gym.
All in all a messy and uninspiring match, albeit the conditions were terrible.
Tom Wilson..goer, but very small, maybe rookie potential as a small forward but doesnt have the tricks or overhead ability you need as a real small forward these days....
Fields is a nice kick but is that inbetween height defender and needs some more body on body practice...
Foster kicks the ball well but has Liam Jones problem..doesnt get enough of the ball and relies on others to deliver the footy too him...
