VFL Game Day Round 1: Essendon vs GWS, The Hangar, Sunday 26/03/23 @ 2:05 PM

[citizen-erased]

Still hasn't kicked a goal afaik :/ I'm pretty much only watching it to see him do a thing

Also Voss is going alright. Lining up for his 4th atm. Reckon he might want a spot in seniors also

Might be handy in a Lyon coached game

 

[The Devils Advocate]

We need Hobbs' tackles in the AFL.

 

[Lore]

Gonna hit triple digits before 3qt at this rate

91-26

How does Cadman look? Has he stayed forward all game, or spent time in defence or midfield

Baldwin has beaten him from what I've seen

Hind would have to be considered next week on the back of this game. Voss would have to be considered too from what I've seen so far.

 

[carloss]

Voss - 5 goals

 

[ghostdog]

Voss has 8 goals from 2 games. Is he actually doing anything wrong?

Correction: 9 goals from 2 games

And if not, the seniors know they have to perform. Good to have something to think about at match committee

If there was a game where he could have had a piece this should have been it. I'll have to be patient.

first game off basically no pre-season so

 

[fishardansin]

How was Munkara?

No where near fit enough so was struggling to keep up. I think he was very nervous as well. There was a good sized crowd with a significant amount of mob there as well. However, a couple times as he goes near the ball, his hands are so clean. Kid is going to be a superstar. Might take a year in VFL system and another preseason, but he's going to be making a mockery of AFL footy in a year or two.

 

[naraku]

It seems like Stringer got through fine?

Narkle an astute pick up as well.

 

[eth-dog]

Great win but won't read much into it, GWS are not a strong side.

 

[BomberFan355]

Was that GWS player ok, just a bad concussion? Didn’t look good.

 

[andleanback]

Who did Lewis hayes play on today? Baldwin convincingly beat Cadman?

Impressive effort from 0% time on ground.

Impressive effort from 0% time on ground.

They all had 0% time on ground, which makes the 80 point win all the more impressive
