Croft is playing mostly forward.

Thanks. Only just started watching.

won’t be long before we see Lachlan Smith in the senior side

I really like him but I hope not. I’d rather give him time to bulk up more, rather than going into the seniors and having his confidence ruined against bigger, stronger opponents. He doesn’t have height on his side so needs strength otherwise he’ll struggle against most AFL rucks

When you have 8 players from your AFL list in total including only 3 with AFL experience, yes our injury list is causing a few issues early in the season

Of course, I haven’t totally lost my marbles yet.
But right now not many of those 8 are ready to have much of an impact at AFL level.

Buss going at 100%

 

[DognBones]

Gardner gives away a silly 50m. Needs to be smarter.

 

[Marsy]

Has Croft been on the field yet? Sub?

When he goes for ball he has about three defenders on him

 

[Bulldogs85]

Ryan giving away a dumb 50

 

[weltschmerz]

Gardner gives away a silly 50m. Needs to be smarter.

He should probably have given away a deliberate free before. Maybe the umpire recognised that it was just a shit kick.

 

[lachy]

Hynes and Kennedy both got a few disposals towards the end of the 1st. Cooper-Peters the standout for us. Umps being friendly for us. Not much up forward. Busslinger just very workman-like.

What would you like a KPD to be? Weitering is workman like and one of the best in the comp

What a mark by Croft

 

[DiamondDogs8]

Buss’ kicking alone would be a good addition to our back 6

Given 5 have not played and the others include Gards and Poulter true. But Croft, Hynes, Buss, Kennedy and Smith are those to look for and all doing well

Is it very windy at VUWO? Croft didn't make the distance from 45.

 

[Marsy]

Moretore looks good.

 

[dogwatch]

OK, I see Croft is playing

 

[weltschmerz]

Lovely pack mark from Croft

 

[Wizard17]

Muratore might be a find

 

[DognBones]

Croft with a great pack mark. Should have kicked that one. Muratore looks like a very capable half forward, kicked 2 already.

 

[Testekill]

Muratore with 2 so far

 

[weltschmerz]

Croft with a great pack mark. Should have kicked that one. Muratore looks like a very capable half forward, kicked 2 already.

Croft was on target which was good to see, fell a little short but he knew where the big sticks were

 

[JohnnySteel]

Muratore might be a find

Naughton should join the recruitment team.

 

[Bald]

I'm scrubbing out the line I put through Busslinger on his kicking alone. If LJones is right to go next week, then next week is the week to do it.

 

[Testekill]

Bad turnover from Busslinger but that was in the middle of three Bulldogs with none of them going for it.

 

[ScottyDogg]

Just rocked up.

Buss takes a good contested mark. Misses an easy 15 meter kick under no pressure straight to the bullants.

It’s not too hard to understand why he hasn’t debuted.

Anyone else unable to connect to 7 plus, or is it just me.
