Between chasing my two little ones around on the grass i got to watch most of the game. Agree with the comments above on Jacksh. He did plenty of nice things in the second half, also suggesting league level fitness helps. But it wasn't a full four quarter effort. Jones took some mighty leaps, resulting in a few teriffic contested marks. He was the preferred target for much of the day. Not sure he will ever be a consistent league level player but he can keep at it. Silvagni just needs to keep developing, no need to rush him into senior footy, as he would be out of puff pretty quick.
Was really pleasing to see our ball movement in the second half out of the backline. Lots of overlap run and kicking to advantage. Our tall targets helped, and the lack of BH talls made life a bit easier. Hawks in general were lacking some of their better players that are now in the seniors. Couple of howler mistakes led to easy blues goals, but the pressure we applied forced them to kick poorly.
Very good score too on a heavy track that was pretty muddy through the middle.
