I've watched the replay twice now and although it aint the same as actually being there, it is painfully obvious that our midfield lacks depth and our forwards the same. When Sumner, Wright, Buckley, Graham, Everitt, Kerridge can't get a game in the seniors then we'll be on the right track. Just the inclusion of Murphy and a fit Daisy into yesterday's side and we come very close to winning... would have beaten Swans and Eagles with those two up and firing. (mind you I do think that Sumner will make it ...just obvious he's struggling now fitness wise - will benefit greatly from a full pre-season and proper fitness and Kerridge is developing into a strong run with/lockdown type... but his disposal!!!).
Agree that Boekhorst really showed glimpses yesterday, you had the feeling that when the ball is in his hands something good will happen.
Great that the NBs are on the teev live this morning. Be really interesting to see how Lamb, Cuningham, McKay, McCasker and Gorringe perform (looks like the club has consigned Jones, Jaksch, Gower, Dick, Wood, Tutt, Foster, Rainbow and probably Whiley to another place next year).
Agree with another poster that Weitering looks timid. Seems to be relying on talent and judgement at the minute with less than required intent. Of recent times the only time I've seen him really seen him seem to enjoy his footy was when he was given the forward line gig.
Kudos has to be given to Gibbs, Simpson, Rowe, Cripps, Curnow E , Docherty and White who are leading well and holding the place together at present.
Boekhorst would be on my delist list......was running towards a contested ball and Kaidan Brand from Hawthorn was the player coming the other way and Boekhorst put the anchors out
and pulled up......not good enough and not for the 1st time he has done that either.....players like this wont take us far and he has to go IMO...
