The last 3 VFL games have ended with a shot after the siren and weā€™ve come out 2 wins 1 draw. Talk about heart attack inducing

Swing him forward and takes a contested mark and goal. Funny that. Keep the man forward!!!
He was outmarked a minute earlier though when he had position. I like him back but it's handy that he can go forward. He's not a key forward at AFL level and behind Cumbo as a third target.

I thought he'd blown 1 of our last chances at goal though just before that with a horrible attempt at a contested mark at the edge of 50.

Whilst it was a contested mark to win it, we had a 2 on 1 at the top of the square where he could jump unimpeded. He finished well, but it was a good position to be in. Not great defence from the Giants in that last play.

Biggie has something. Give him a look at the next level.

If Jack struggles again today Iā€™d bring Biggie in for him. Yes heā€™s kicked 2.7, but some were hard shots. Heā€™s showed plenty up forward
Bauer must come in for Jack.
Knows how to kick goals

Yep! Miller looks scared to even line up for a set shot, yet looked so composed down back in the last. Swap them, Bauer forward and Miller back. Has to happen

If heā€™d have been playing up forward all season Iā€™d have said yep but itā€™s hard with him having played back the last two months. Heā€™s a bit lighter than jack but essentially the same height. Same size as Gunston too. Iā€™ve seen people say heā€™s undersized but thereā€™s no reason he canā€™t be a second or third marking option up forward. Has sticky mitts as we saw with that mark late. The AFL world is lauding JVR at the minute but Bauer had very similar stats to him in the VFL last year and kicked 6 goals in his first two games this year. Itā€™s a shame weā€™ve thrown him down back I really do think he couldā€™ve impacted as a forward at AFL levelā€¦ Not too late!

Nah, promising.
Whatā€™s wrong with people? Kid is coming off a low base plus the added fact he missed football with a broken hand.

The quicker people realise you donā€™t pick up a Riewoldt or Lynch in the preseason draft the better.

You beauty, was frustrating seeing the boys get so much of the ball but waste it in front of goals. Rewarded at the end with a superb mark and goal after the siren by Bauer to win the game
