        Just trying to help others that aren't as fortunate as you or I. But will drop updates then. Since when did we become mates?

            Not a bad first outing for the year. Far from dominant but added a bit of class, played a team game (not always his forte) and looked to be moving far better than the last time I got to watch him (many many moons ago).

                Nice first game back. Tried hard and fitted in well.

                  Yeah. He did ok, more team awareness and whatever- seems to have at last sunk in. I hope he holds his spot, but am glad we have backup at last for the senior players.

                    pushed up the ground, didnt play much as a forward like previously. Good first hit out. Must be hard to adjust to afl pace after a lengthy stint in our reserves.

                    Deserves to hold his spot.
                    Theres not much left to say

                      My mistake, I forgot that this was the gameday thread?

                        Again, there was a thread dedicated to the match tonight. Why not post updates there?

                          I thought he looked great - let's hope they find an excuse for him to string a few games together. Even with Ben back, thought Vespa played the crumbing forward role beautifully.

                            He is looking very lean. Played well and I really hope we get to see him again.

                              It was his first game in so he cannot be judged too critically, and he did reasonably well.

                              He also seemed to find the ball ok and certainly played within the 'team' ethos, but he didn't seem to have that spark of excitement that was typical of his first few games in the seniors. That might be a reflection of my expectation rather than his actual performance (either then, or now), but I recall an x-factor that was not evident in his game last night.

                                They must have gotten to him and Jetta with the "bloods" ethos that appears to take any individuals flair out of their performance. Then we, as fans, wonder why they struggle.
