VFL 2019 Rd 4: Northern Blues vs. Werribee

[Baggers]

Went full of expectation, left at half time because there is nothing worse than watching a team that is playing crap to start off with and then just becomes undisciplined and frustrated due to some exceptionally ordinary umpiring.

Williamson set the afternoon off by giving away a double goal due to undisciplined actions and it went downhill from there. Hard to assess Stocker as he had no support or structure around him. However he just does things that make you think that, in better company, he could do the job....a bit like Williamson when he was given his first chance. Young Finbar and Ben Silvagni are both victims of no development teams and are there purely for experience. Fasolo and Lang are not going to make it but Kennedy, with less attention in the main team, will be ok.

(All based on a full viewing at Vic Park and half a game today)

I feel for you, TC. Mrs Baggers and I intended to go (5 hour round trip for us) and decided this morning not to as she wasn't feeling so well.

The umpiring in the first half, first qtr in particular, was worthy of an official complaint by the club... though we didn't help our cause with such undisciplined behaviour.
