Callum Moore leads out to the fifty. Easy mark and then a loooong goal set shot. Ball drop looks unco but he kicked that one very well.

Much like our seniors the VFL sets up a really good defensive zone on oppo kickouts.

Doing it too easy, great work from Lennon/Short/Conca out of defence, ball run through the midfield with handball and Lloyd kicks the easy goal from the pocket.

Thanks for the updates.

Is Griffiths having stints in the ruck?

How is Hampson playing?

Is Conca playing off half back?

Yep, playing half back or back pocket. EDIT came off the wing for that last centre bounce

Seems to be Maric/Hampy in the ruck. Griffo not done much since I started watching.

Shai just snuck up behind a Sandy defender expecting an easy mark, spoiled, regathered and strolled in to kick a goal from 15 out

Stengle gets another, up by 50 points and we are still in the second quarter.

Just watched in 2nd quarter, didn't see much of Conca. Lennon getting involved, Miles getting plenty around the contest.

Bolton a beautiful mover, will be a star if he can keep working hard. Is gonna make a lot of defenders look silly in his career.

Batch cleaning up the scraps down back, very good at this level.

Conca got into it that quarter. Griff just getting some miles in the legs and game practice and not much else.

Hammer the same.

Morris lively as usual.

1/2 time
Us 12.7.79
Them 5.3.33
Goals: Lloyd 2, Lennon 2, Stengle 2, Menadue, Moore, Ellis, Short, Bolton, Morris.
DISPOSALS: Lloyd 22, Miles 18, Ellis 16, Batchelor 15, Moore 14, Smith 13.

AFL-listed players:
Lennon: Quiet first quarter, got more involved in the second.
Batchelor: His usual dominant self down back. Some creative handball that quarter.
Short: Pretty good, playing down back but getting forward.
Hampson: Competing.
Maric: Meh.
Griff: Competing.
Miles: Winning plenty of ball but getting caught a bit.
Lloyd: BOG. Everywhere.
Bolton: Quiet first quarter but good second.
Conca: As above.
Ellis: Excellent first quarter, quieter second.
Moore: So much to like. Big, strong, fast, great hands. Kicking improved but still ugly.
Menadue: Some nice involvements.
Morris: Typical. All hustle, no class. Ball use awful.
Chol: Down back suits. Not prolific but steady.
Garth: As above.
Elton: Ugh. Bring back Bathie for finals.
Stengle: Not prolific but clever.

Derek Smith should definitely be considered come November.

Darley, Coffield, Ballard are very good VFL players.

So apt.

Agree on Smith & Coffield looks a decent footballer

Morris - just gets a high free (leading with his head) and kicks it straight to the opposition.

Lloydy killing them this quarter, just not kicking straight.

12.7 was way too accurate for Richmond, so naturally we kicked 3.8 that quarter to even things up.

Amazing solo effort by Moore to set up Lloyd's third (also has four behinds, three that quarter). Moore has been very good, we should seriously consider bringing him in next week.
