Round 7 v Casey

[jonesy86]

aparently lost by 32points
rusling kicked 4 in the 2nds and was named in the best

[eddiesmith]

So basically we played shit in the 1st qtr and ended up playing 3 even qtrs, wow, thats just like the Bullants game wasnt it?

With the side Willy has they should be top 4, instead they cannot win away and are on the road for the next couple of weeks

By your way of thinking, you could say the same thing about Collingwood, in the way that none of the history of the club is relevant pre-AFL.

Those of us born and bred Williamstown supporters are proud of the history of the club, a club that in all reality has been around longer than CFC.

Great to see Harry continued his AFL form and did not drop the head after his unfortunate demotion.

Ditto Clokey. And good to see Julian Rowe in some good touch, too, he'd be looking for a place in the seniors sooner rather than later.

[ad4eva]

How did Rhyce Shaw and Scott Pendlebury play?

Given we are playing a fast and small bulldogs side i think one of the two will be given a run for Collingwood, if not both...

Great to see Jason BOG once again, i know how many critics he has and i hope he can get back into the seniors and finally cement a spot...

Its also really great to see Trav Cloke step up on a wet day and kick two goals and get his name in the best. I think the one thing that Trav is lacking in the seniors is goals, you cant expect to much from him as an 18/19 year old but i think some people do... once he starts to get the kicking boot on he will be just as dangerous as Tazz and Rocca...

Despite it being in the reserves reserves its releaving to see Rusling coming back and kicking four on the way... One thing is to come back and get through a game, another is to get through and to stamp your authority on the game...

This once again shows our depth and i can see Rus and Trav in the forward half in the black and white as a dangerous combination in the years to come...

Other good things to note:
Julian Rowe, good to see you back in the best column
Danny Nicholls, a best on, well done, i look forward to seeing this kid play
Harry O'Brien, very stiff to be demoted again but rules are rules, however all he can do is play good footy which is what hes doing... looking forward to seeing Harry in 2007 on the senior list, or in unfortunate circumstances for someone else, in 2006...
Not a good thing to note but...Mark McGough shows that he really is a wet whether player and that only with a best on for Casey

In a whole, dissapointing for such a strong line up to get done to a team called "Casey"...
Well done to the players mentioned above

Apparently RUZ missed as many as he kicked so he could of really kicked a bag good to see he will/should be lining up at FF next week in willy 1's , which is probably Willy 1's week spot they haven't had a decent FF to kick to. It was noted on BF that when T.Cloke got the ball (at CHF) he had no one to go to atleast this week if he is still in the willy side he will have the RUZ down there , exciting times ahead for us IMO.

[couragous cloke]

I wouldnt read too much into the Rusling performance as the 2's were going at half pace and still won by a 100 points. He does look fit though and has bulked up a little too.

I would have to agree with eddie's summary of the game. The first half there was very little rain and Jason Cloke dominated the whole backline and even pulled in a screamer. Ryce shaw looked sharp, Harry was good old harry and Travis looked good aswell.

My question is how does a VFL side with 10-11 players pushing for AFL spots look so shoddy in a half of football? take Jason Cloke away and willy lose by 10-15 goals.

From what i saw Pendlebury tried to do a little too much whenever he got the ball and was caught a few times. I had to ask someone what number he was because i had never seen him before but if i had to make a comparison i would say Nick Dal Santo, everytime he kicked it was all class.

Casey Fields has an amazing surface, smallish stand (how many VFL grounds have you seen with a huge stand and cover all the way round? The parking is horrendous, there are more parking spots at my local basketball stadium down the road!

It will slowly get bigger and bigger with time and growing interest.

Casey fields this year was built mostly to cater for Cranbourne Football Club.

Scorpions wanted to get in there earlier than planned.
The car park will be getting a concrete surface and extended by next year.
There is also plans for another 2 grandstands to be built, either side of the scoreboard where the temp stands are.
I do agree doesnt cater well for a shit days weather. But the facilities are brilliant
