    Retaliatory action, probably should have got a free for high contact/around the neck but his reaction was typically quite extreme, Hewitt went down like a sack of spuds. Mummy will no doubt be reported at some stage this season.

    Just watched , a fair bit to like . Blakeys goal kicking action is a thing of beauty . James Rowbottom was really solid for a first year player and I can see him getting some games. Mcinerney had glimpses of real dash in the second half and managed to execute his kicks well at pace on occasion. Florent and Hayward have definitely bulked up and looked good out there. Reg and Melican looking sharp down back too. Also thought Pink and maibaum both showed a bit. Oh and Mills looked right at home in the middle . Some good signs there.

    It's really noticeable. Pink has a great physique. The one that is most noticeably larger is George Hewitt
    He had observed that people who did lie were, on the whole, more resourceful and ambitious and successful than people who did not lie.

    Yes. I thought Florent too.

    At times Hewitt resembled JPK at the centre bounces.....grabbing the ball and literally muscling himself free to dish off. I'm liking what I'm seeing.

    M'eh, I'm no apologist but there wasn't much in it. More a push than a hit. And frankly George was all over him like [a prominent Australian who cannot be named] on a choirboy, and kind of deserved it. Had an opposing player been hanging on to our ruckman like that I'd have been pleading Just Desserts.
    My opinion is objective truth in its purest form

    1. James Rose - not very clean

    4. Ryan Clarke - only played second half and was ok without being a standout

    6. Jackson Thurlow - didn’t notice jackson much as Rampe, Grundy and Melican tended to dominate......in attack jackson was outplayed by McInerney. I suppose Thurlow will get more outside game time in the next game

    7. Harry Cunningham - very strong game and same as last season drifted between wing and HBF for exits and played very well

    8. James Rowbottom - a reall young warrior quite like Parker at same age......more 2020 I think but he is a goer that is for sure

    9. Will Hayward - Solid

    11. Tom Papley - really mature game from Tom. All class

    13. Oliver Florent - wow Ollie really is quick with his change of pace. Good inside outside game today

    14. Callum Mills - impressed with his midfield time and will be midfield I suspect this season. Depends a little on Thurlow being the player we need off HBF

    17. Darcy Cameron - good game got injured on the knee ?

    21. Jack Maibaum - solid and good closing speed. Played fairly direct and tried to play on. A little forced but gave it a go

    22. Nick Blakey - well he certainly put his hand up for a spot in the 22 for rd1. Classy, athletic, great kicking today

    24. Dane Rampe - super strong

    27. Justin McInerney - a real goer and tough. Nice touch and vision today also. Very exciting prospect for the future and maybe some 2019 snr games

    29. George Hewett - solid as always

    31. Harry Reynolds - limiter time. Tried very hard

    32. James Bell - obviously outside player but needs to find his tenacity and back himself

    33. Ryley Stoddart - same again as bell...... limited time and floated in and out of the game

    34. Jordan Dawson - like blakey will be close to the best 22. Just so confusing where to play Jordan but he has lifted again and must be a 12 snr game plus player in 2019

    38. Colin O’RIORDAN - solid but will struggle to get much snr time vs the other backs available

    39. Heath Grundy - strong game back

    42. Robbie Fox - very adaptable player and can see why we kept him over Robbo or towers

    43. Lewis Melican - good First game back. Solid

    44. Jake Lloyd - picked up where he left off. Critical player for us

    45. Sam Wicks - good pressure. Limited minutes

    47. Toby Pink - gives everything a go......improved a little from last season. Supposedly injured a lot last two years
    Great assessment AG. Not surprised about Rose. I think he'll be a great NEAFL player but he can't handle seniors speed and intensity. Happy to see Paps did well. Did he play midfield or forward?

    Pretty much sums it up. I also thought Cameron was great in the first half and dominated Mumford. That pack mark in the Goal square was special. Mumford dominated the second half but was mostly rucking against Dawson. Blakey 50 meters out and on the boundary line, no problems. Was getting excited about 2019, then I hear McCartin has serious concussion and future is in doubt.

    Would like to add COR, Maibaum and Fox to that list defensively. I thought Foxy was clean and explosive. He sure has a good jump too and did well against Mummy in the last quarter.

    Oh forgot to mention Nick Davis remains fitter than he was as a player
