Thanks LiIBE.
And it will be beers (plural), with possibly a scotch on the rocks as well. Suspect I'll need it... _________________ I am vengeance. I am the night. I am MagpieBat. |

Looking forward to your review on the match and from others who attended today! |
Thanks Jezza. I was raised well.
Can't really recommend any senior player out there today with any enthusiasm. But we do have to make a couple of forced changes, so it'll really be the best of an ordinary bunch... |
I reckon that you deserve the Micky Gayfer award for sticking to task! _________________ I think therefore I think - I think |

Thanks Magpie Bat. I had to go to a family function & just completed reading the game from the opening bounce - cheers.
You really do deserve a medal from Nicks because your contribution is marvellous & exceeds expectations. Thank you again. _________________ “I even went as far as becoming a Southern Baptist until I realised they didn’t keep ‘em under long enough” Kinky Friedman |

8.07 wiped off our percentage (now 96.76), likely to crash to 8th spot after results tomorrow (al beit still inside the 8 by a game over the loser of Casey/Port).
F-ck, this one is going to sting... _________________ I am vengeance. I am the night. I am MagpieBat.

I don't think we can take anything much out of today's game. We were woefully undermanned. God Bless Ash Close (#71 Ivanhoe Amatuers/Morwell) but we can't reasonably expect to win a game with Ash as our key forward. This is not to say that the boy didn't try hard an do a few good things, but FFS.
The combination of lack of cattle and a tough 3 weeks really showed in the last quarter when we were overrun. On another note, it was a very healthy crowd today despite the miserable weather.
A few positives:
S Dwyer - Played his heart out
BenKen - Tried all day but was overwhelmed
Schaz - Had a few Barry Crocker moments but also showed a bit of class at times.
Cox - As I often say, he is getting better and better every time I see him. He couldn't stand against the tide today but he is a beauty.
PK - Hat tip for kicking 4 and making the most of his opportunities on a dead set rubbish day at the office for the club. This is what we want PK to show us. We are desperate for finishing class in the seniors.
Captain Jack - We are lucky to have him. Tried all day but was just overwhelmed.
Greenhough - As the Bat said, looked dead after a mark in the forward line but after a visit to the Lazarus Pit (Hat Tip to the Bat), came back on and kicked a goal. Huge heart. He would fit right into the League of Assassins.
A few knocks:
Seeds - has to do better at this level. We need his class and X factor in the firsts. He certainly didn't do much today.
Greenwood - Needs to have a good hard look at himself. No senior player wants to be running around in the scoobs on a miserable July afternoon & I but he should be smashing it at this level. I know he probably isn't completely fit but at one stage he gave away a 50 by punching a Dogs player in the guts. FFS Levi. You are better than that.
Lets hope we get a better side on the park next week. Hot Pies. |

There's 13 times he was second to the ball, right there. |

Trumped by the 20 times he was first to the ball, which demonstrates a clear lack of defensive intent... _________________ I am vengeance. I am the night. I am MagpieBat. |
