Reserves playing Ainslie today . I had to leave at half time so I am unaware what happened in 2nd half. Ainslie were leading by 17 points at half time. My observations.
The Ainslie team were far more physically developed than the Swans. I understand Ainslie bought 8-10 new playrs for this season.
Seymour and Buchanan were playing .
Meiklejohn was very effective in the ruck and around the ground and kicked well
McVeigh was very lively and had a lot of possessions.
Ryan O'Keefe was playing in the centre and was playing well
Mullet Powell took some nice marks.
LRT spent a lot of time at CHB and did some good things.
Seymour was at CHF but the team struggled up forward.
Paul Bevan ran well and did some good things.
Thewlis was OK
The Reserves have a lot of top up players and some struggled against strong opposition.
The standard of the game was quite high but there is a big jump to AFL level.
