All good mate.

Were you at the game?
 
Are we ever going to have a midfielder that gets more then 20 touches?
Where’s CD?

Unfortunately no and it wasn't streamed anywhere either so just relied on VFL app for updates and final stats
 
Baker gone to Sydney presumably.

Good effort and some promising returns from Naish, Ross, Turner and CuJo among the young ones. And Chol too.

The defence would have had a very different look, too, so they've done well.

I got to see the game, as the scores suggest we started well, faded, the finished all over them. some random thoughts:
Bolton was our clear best IMO. very dangerous with the ball. how his game would translate to the quicker, better tackling AFL remains to be seen. he nearly took an absolute speccie on top of of a pack but unfortunately didnt come down with the ball. his balance and recovery were a feature of his game though- when he did fly he was able to keep his feet and stay involved when the ball hit the deck.
Ross was busy, not dominant, but good.
Chol was ok. he did well to finish well 3 goals considering he spent time down back, and a little in the ruck. I dont think he would be pushing for promotion though.
Caddy was ok. didnt do much up forward, spent plenty of time on the ball.
Soldo was ok against an AFL standard ruck in Smith.
Menadue showed a bit, playing off half back mostly.
Naish got a bit of it and generally used it well.
RCD is a way off. He looked ok, but not AFL ready.
Moore competed well but was pretty ineffective. Would probably still play him in the ones before Chol if needed as i reckon he was more 'involved' even if the results didnt come for him.

Out tall backs struggled against the very tall forwards of the Cats- Buzza and resting ruckman.

It was interesting to see our centre square set ups. we regularly went with Caddy, Townsend and Ross. probably a sign we are looking for strength to add to our onballers in the ones. Bolton was the other regular and won plenty of clearances.
