O'Shea was the traveling emergency; Garlett was present in a tracksuit with Strachan warming up later that every one else.
Good to see Macreadie playing.
Kerridge dominated the 1st qtr but Graham dominated the match as Kerridge faded.
Not one of our 3 tall forwards (Kerr, Casboult or De Koning) was worth a cracker in the 1st half - all were too one dimensional but joined in the fun after 1/2 time.
Palmer led very well and kicked very straight but he is not Kane Lambert yet.
Mullett and Shaw are just depth players - Schumacher has excellent disposal but didn't play as well as I have seen him so no rush for an AFL game as yet - then again, Polson keeps getting a game.
Looked like the grade 5-6 kids beating up on the 3/4's from those highlights......pressure from Frankston was zero...
