2nd preseason game v North

[Auntie.Gerald]

Didn't mind the look of rookie Roberts. Redhead with pace, kicking and tackle skills. Could be the first of this year's draft class to play seniors during the season.

Agree mate
Very composed the week before against GWS
Probably struggled a little with 10mins or so vs north to flow with the team but he is a serious one to watch because he can play and fit into a surround team due to his calm decision making and reading of the game

[QUOTE=bloodspirit;839138]Haven't heard any commentary about McAndrew's game on the weekend but I saw an impressive 2nd effort in the highlights reel that led to a goal. Can anyone offer any commentary?

McAndrew only came on late in the last quarter. Did some nice things including that highlight goal. Had a smile when the commentators said that he was too skinny to go in the ruck. Next ball up McAndrew was in the ruck. "Stretch" did OK for very limited game time. I don't know if he played in the VFL game as I have seen nothing on that match. Ronke also came on late and they said he played a half earlier in the VFL game/

I was really impressed with Rowbottom (Nico - just for you ????) yesterday. Great attack on the ball, excellent 2nd, 3rd and even 4th efforts, stuck his tackles and he really lifted when the North midfield were starting to gain some ascendency in the 2nd and 3rd quarters. I have absolutely no concerns about his trajectory this year, confident he will play most of the season in the AFL.

I have just seen the replay and he was impressive. I thought the whole team attacked the contest well.

Two-thirds of all points usually come from turnovers in AFL.

On average, if u give up the ball nine times fewer per match than their opponents you will be a champion team.

Only one of the WEB of critical stat's but the outlier !
