Channel 7 should listen to these guys commentate. They are doing a good job, instead of the drivel we hear from BT and Bruce

And then wait for the VFL tomorrow; Jason Bennett runs circles around basically every AFL commentator in Australia

Bailey Laurie to make it 4 at the Dogs, plus one female

Nice leap from Marra to bust the pack and give his crumber the opportunity.

Lots of big leaping in a forward line containing Naughton and Ugle-Hagan.

Not many 195cm forward kids love to tackle.

This game went from competitive to over in 5mins.

Oakleigh just have too many weapons. Should have been over at half time but they just couldn't convert.

Hopefully Marra can get on the end of a couple in the last.

Re: Future Priority Access Thread (Inc. Father/Son, Academy Players)

Only criticism I can have of Marra just from watching him today is that he starts from behind a little too often.

How good is this kid Rowell.

Re: Future Priority Access Thread (Inc. Father/Son, Academy Players)

Marra has been double & triple teamed all day which has released a few of his fellow forwards.

Re: Future Priority Access Thread (Inc. Father/Son, Academy Players)

Yeah, I'm fairly confident that once his tank improves he'll be able to lead a lot more and his leads are very good.

A lot more work into him today than the other finals. But his tackling and pressure was impressive at ground level. Shame that hit the post, but next year is going to be fun to watch him. And next Saturday too.

8 marks and 5 tackles on a pretty tough day for him is admirable.

He is a very athletic type, I was impressed with his casing and tackling. Can't wait to see him in the RWB

Couple of shots at goal, a tackle set up a goal during the third qtr onslaught. If that’s his tough day as a 17yo, well, I’d take that in the afl team as his bad day. But he’s only going to get better which is solace during the pre-season to think about. I’d love to know his combine results next year, his leap, running jump, sprints etc would be nearly off the charts. I’d love to know the comparison in testing.
