Thanks for the stats, PI2C, you can tell quite a bit from at times.
[1] I remain disappointed with Viojo - Rainbow, Gowers, Johnson, Foster and Smith. They seem to be really struggling at the moment.
Foster's best game was against North Ballarat a few weeks back when they played as a curtain raiser. He played that day in defence. other than that, I don't think he has bettered 10 possessions in any game.
Smith got senior games earlier this year, but he is struggling to stay in the VFL at the moment. Confidence? Homesickness? I don't know.
Gowers does some very nice cameos and has played some reasonable games in defence, but he seems to be struggling to get the ball. Last year he was getting approximately double the possessions he is getting now.
Viojo Rainbow was highly rated last year. His kicking is very nice, but not so good when he is only getting 10 or 11 per game. He doesn't appear to want it enough at the moment.
Johsnon has gone backwards and will struggle to remain on the list unless he gets more of the ball.
So, at the moment we are going in maybe 4 - 5 players short.
[2] I'd be happy with how Aurrichio is going. He may have had only 8 possessions, but he managed 37 taps and we won the midfield contest.
[3] We do appear to seriously lack depth in the Preston side of the equation. Wilson, Wilkinson and McGuinness have been the standouts. It would be nice if we had a bit more strength on the VFL list.
