VFL Practice Match - Carlton vs Richmond

[Baggers]

Glad the highlights package had more than just goals.

Terrific effort from the Magoos, especially to come from so far behind. Bravo Luke P, players and all involved.

Lemmey didn't appear to be a lot worth mentioning,

FMD [member=58]crashlander[/member], he's only just turned 19 and played one VFL practice game and you've written him off! ;D

Agree about Pitto, he looked to be moving quite good, but didn't have much functional opposition to speak of.

It was interesting to see that now he is Capitano Mr Crocker spent much more time up the ground, but that is also perhaps a tell about the opposition.

Pittonet should have played last game to help out TDK vs Nank who played a good one.
Entirely different opposition this week with Blicavs and Stanley who cover a lot of ground and play like the old followers and get a decent amount of ball as well as doing the ruck work. You cant have Blicavs in particular just roaming around on his own without an opponent and while Id like to play Pittonet to help TDK I feel TDK will have to do a lot of the work given his athletic abilities are more suited to the opposition ruck setup..

No mate, he had a quiet game from the looks of things. I'm not writing him off. While he didn't have huge stats, he did what he needed to well enough. I am hoping to see him more and more involved as the weeks go on. I don't expect him to dominate overnight.
On the other hand, if he does dominate overnight, I'm not going to complain.

I have only seen the highlights but Mirkov’s ruckwork seems to have gone up a notch.  What’s more, Matty Kreuzer’s influence seems to be having an impact with the big man getting involved after the tap.
