^ Marsh rightfully BoG.

Armstrong and Wallin really have no business being in there though. But it's an encouragement thing, so whatever.

Personally, I think B1 scraped in, but wouldn't have him ahead of Pendles, who I think has been quite underrated here.

At least White and Sinclair didn't get in...

[John Wren]

wallin had an all day run with role on dunnell and performed it admirably so rightfully should be in the bests.

Looking at the draw if we can win our next four games we should climb to fourth before finals. We have a game in hand over Werribee and most of the teams around us on the ladder play each other. The danger game is the one against North Ballarat in two weeks. If our injuries improve and we can build up to 16 or 17 listed players once Goldy, Cloke, Caff and Freeman come back then we look good for a Qualifying final against Box Hill or Willy.

I was at the game.

marsh was easily best on ground. white was easily the worst on ground.

we were a chance up to the last qtr. that 1st poster in last qtr (think it was reid) cost us the game as willy scored a goal on the next set of play. (2 goal turn around)

white has lost all confidence. in 3rd qtr gave away a silly free which willy scored a goal.

marsh has to play seniors plays well around the ground, reads the ball well.

Armstrong and young are both the turnover kings. reckon both could be gone by years end.

Okay Here are my Report/Thoughts:

Marsh BOG easily. Dominated Down Back and used the Ball okay

Sinclair had a good Sold Game. 1st Qtr put in his Contender of Mark of the Year

White just looked Lost and Gave away too many Frees(4?) in the Ruck
Gault I barley Noticed him. Took a few marks

Armstong did nothing special as Usual. Gets the Ball then just has his Short Kicks

PK shows he can Kick a Goal up Forward but still has large parts he goes Missing

Jarrad Blair had a Usual Blair Game. Tried his Heart out for 4 Qtrs

Liked Ryan Pendlebury’s 1st Half but fell away in 2nd Half

Scumps where Appalling in the 2nd Half

So, it looks like Armstrong, White and Blair back in next week, with Marsh to get another few development weeks in the VFL.

So going by those stats why doesn't PK get a game when we are struggling in the seniors for forwards.
