I thought that Fox was good that quarter. If he, Robinson and Brown can take advantage of Cameron's tap work in the last, then we are in with a chance. I notice that Wicks is on 92 fantasy points. I wonder if a toppy has ever got over 100?

Plenty of times.Comment

Darcy Cameron doing as he likes in the ruck, and then also getting around the ground taking intercept marks. Another super performance,.Comment

Cameron is again, very impressive. A certainty to be on the list next year and maybe for a few more. Stoddart very good - excellent pace and balance. If we'd kicked straight in the 2nd quarter that would have been a comfortable win.Comment

I only tuned in for what turned out to be the good bit, but Bell looks like he gets it and would cope with stepping up a grade.Comment

I watched the second half at the ground with my lad. Rose dominated our forward half in the last, Robbo propelled us forward from the middle, and Cameron basically marked it every time they went forward. Stoddart looked good in open play a few times and kicked two goals in the last.
Bell had some nice touches but has a fair way to go.
Rohan had a limp. Amartey was in a moon boot.Comment

Yes, Bell had a touch of class and at times, his movements remind me a bit of Mickey O. Though probably needs to get it more often, before he earns a promotion.Comment

Hopefully we'll see him again this year.Comment

A handful of very good performances today.
Apart from the obvious (Cameron, Robinson), Fox was good most of the game, and COR was by far the best early in the game when the team was struggling. Really liked a lot of what Stoddart did. He just needs to get a bit more meat on his bones. And Bell looks good with ball in hand, but probably needs to lift his intensity when the Swans don't have the ball.
Speaking of meat on the bones, Bruce looks like he's been in a good paddock. He was super fit when with the Swans but I guess it's a bit harder to stay in shape when you're not chasing your dream of top flight AFL, and probably working a full time job too.
The top-ups again were pretty good across the board. Early on they tended to fumble and hand over possession but the whole team's composure and ball control improved as the game went on.Comment

I just noticed in the NEAFL app that the Round 21 game which had been a TBC (because of the floating nature of the corresponding AFL game v hawks) is now set for a time of Friday 2pm at Blacktown!Comment
