Re: Round 2 - 2017, Footscray Bulldogs v Werribee
So Fergus Green kicks 5 and has 8 in the first two weeks wow fair effort! I was also reading he is close to a 16 beeper, Daly loves the endurance runners thats for sure and a handy trait for any forward. Wish we could see some vision....Comment

Fergus Greene and Nathan MM are impressive. Thought Daniel was classy and probably deserved a call up, with leather poisoning at times. He and English seem to have a real tag team/ESP thing going on-wonderful to watch. Also liked Webb who is adding good inside skills to his beautiful outside disposal. Prudden reliable too mainly across half back and sometimes CHF. Also thought Foster, although he did get a lot of it, was a real team player in the forward line with a few unselfish goal assists when he could have taken a shot himself. Unfortunately Lipinski injured early on, hope it is not too serious as he looks good too. Williams disposal good and he is one of those players that seems to glide and have a little more time. Thought Lynch's defensive skills not so good, although he does have a beautiful kick too. Early days I know however I think Dalyrymple has nailed it again with 2016 draft picks-and they are all quite tall!!Josie :)
Our day will come
And we'll have everything.
We'll share the joy
Just like '54 again.Comment

I was expecting Greene to be miles off it early in the season, given he was such a left field pick. For him to kick 5 today is a great sign.
Sounds like English performed well again and Williams backed up a strong performance in round 1 with a BOG today.Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.Comment

I got there early in the second quarter. Don't think I could give a really solid/detailed account given I had my kids there, and ran into a lot of people I know - so was distracted.
Gee the 5 on the interchange makes things a mess in the VFL at times. They are all desperate to get back out there, and players want to stay on the ground so there can be some awkwardly long waiting time for players standing at the interchange line.
The 'senior' type players looked good to me. Caleb, Webb, Prudden, Honeychurch, Williams. Greene kicked several goals. I was really impressed to see English live for the first time. He's a real competitor and moves really well.
Sorry to not give more detail - the game didn't reach any great heights - but our fringe players look keen and determined as you'd expect.Comment

When do you reckon Timmy English will debut? His beef was a concern but from the sound of it his competing well."Footscray people are incredible people; so humble. I'm just so happy - ecstatic"Comment
