what position did he play today out of curiosity?
what did you think of his game personally?
Well, my count of the Punt Rd Chainwire Crew for my time there was as followsSo you have now identified us after the fact
2 blokes deep in conversation
1 bloke who looked like a plumber
1 bloke standing under a tree on his phone
1 good looking bloke who was freezing.... dunno why
1 bloke with a notepad wearing an HFC top
1 colourful lookin dude standing on the rails
1 other bloke in shorts at the end.
+ the odd blow in!
By process of elimination the following were not in the mix.....
the other bloke in shorts..... (maybe zips)
the colourful dude on the rails... (unusual looking cat, possibly zips)
the hawthorn ceo!..... (imagine if he is zips!)
the fella freezing. ... (too good looking to be zips
)the bloke under the tree.... (when they're barracking at intra club matches something's NQR..... hmm zips?)
the plumber. ..... (too busy thinkin about who to charge his time to!)
Which left me with you two intelligent looking blokes down the end....
thanks for the reports. At this stage (it can change quickly) our VFL team will boast some serious talent as well !!
Great work as always. Chol was named in the bests - where did he play and what were your thoughts? And Naish, same question.Ok Intra Club Bonus today i have 2 reports for you as were accompanied by another set of eyes who i got to do an independent report:
1) Caesar Report:
Ist Half:
yellow team Grand Final side minus Nank who played 1 qtr only today for black team and BEllis. Included in yellow was Noah Balta down back.
After half time a few Guernseys were swapped to even out sides.
Thomson Dow did not play due to sickness.
Shai, here is what I thought about Shai's 1st half and played forward the whole game, (A bit of Hoodoo Gurus anyone):
"I love the way you talk, you walk
You smile, your style
Like now, like wow-wipeout, no doubt
But I was gone the moment I laid eyes on you "
And a bit of the chorus
"Well, yes, yes, yes, yes
I'm impressed "
Ok 1st half you had the likes of RCD and Jack Ross alternating on Cotch and Dusty at the clearances, (actually it was for the whole match, (how is that for an education), and as to be expected Cotch and Dusty put on a clinic in this area of the ground, the young lads will learn to get their arms across their opponents more.
This is not to say Ross & RCD did show some great signs.
Ross was really good and the best of the 1 to 2 year players, prominent in general play really good link up work and kicked a goal.
RCD a couple of dashes, a centre clearance when opposed to Dusty, also a snapped goal, some great hands in tight a strong mark against Bachar but collected Bachar in ribs who took no further part, (hopefully ribs are ok and he lines up for Vics).
Soldo absolutely destroyed all comers.
Marlion: I could go back to my Hoodoo hymn book
Stack: Played forward applied plenty of pressure but not in bests.
Prestia: Great as usual
Noah Balta: was reasonably assured down back but the wild Colt still exists.
Ball movement in general was sublime.
Big forwards did not dominate but plenty of deft touches to smalls would go unnoticed by most.
That will do from me and will now defer to our Stig, (track watcher 2), report.
2) Stig Report:
His take on intra club
Not many changes from GF team
Nank if not ready and no Ellis
CCJ could play the replacement for Nank
The replacement for Ellis is of interest as both Broad and Baker player considerable time on the wing switching on occasions with Balta being the 3rd tall back and not Broad . Pre season games will determine whether Balta plays round 1
Game style
Early on the game played in the one third moving bubble as seen by all forward 6 pushing well past centre of ground . When ball is won back on turnover obviously bubble moves down ground More obvious than previous years
Key notes
Pickett will play as midfielder , not on a wing
Bolton will play forward as well
Soldo clearly no 1 ruckman
Dusty and Cotchin clearly ahead of schedule, no holding back there
Unless injuries , don't see any obvious changes from GF team apart from Balta playing down back and releasing Baker / Broad to wing
Keep in mind Broad did play on wing in WAFL in a few games
Can't see Stack or Ross playing round 1 unless there is injuries
We are in a great position this early in year
Best players not in any order
Soldo . Bolton . Dusty .Cotch . Pickett .Ross .RCD and Edwards
Zips should've been easy to spot, he would've been the guy doing cartwheels each time Castagna kicked one of his 3 goals.Well, my count of the Punt Rd Chainwire Crew for my time there was as follows

In the best 3 on the ground.
Elusive, skilful and deadly in front of goal.

I was clapping every time he went near it.
He looks more composed with the ball.
Flk he is quick
Has got heaps of tricks, improve his goal kicking and would be close to the best small forward in the comp.
Mabs played mostly forward for black team with a few stints in the middle late, was one of the better for black team , sure to play forward in Wang you would think. Naish didn't really feature too much in my eyes
He needs to start doing this consistently ... in real games. But all else in place.
He was against very strong opposition today. Maybe he was comfortable because he knows there game but the performance in the GF looks like it has bulit up his own confidence. He was really really clean today.

Have now added the Hoodoo Guru's "Wipe-Out" youtube clip in my original report to complete the story, enjoy
Too bloody good for the ViFfLe, some cockroach like Eddieeee or Dodo will come scuttling around in the dark n try to steal them.
If Stack can't walk into that line up......its just mindboggling. He is an absolute champion in the making. What a position we are in.
I’m hoping we copy 2019 (slow start - huge finish)
not 2018.
thanks for the report Caesar and Co.
