I thought Chatfield was one of our weaker players in first final so not surprised he is the one to make way for Darcy.

I'm really looking forward to going to this!

Listened to Tom Boyd's podcast this week interviewing Stuey Edge. I hadn't realised Chatfield was Jamarra's cousin.

News to me too. I think Jamarra has a few relatives who have played at the top level.

Think i'll head along too. Looks like it's going to be fine and i've never been to Box Hill.

Loving Gallagher's work.

Need more composure with our delivery to F50.

Agree Gallagher looks really good. Will definitely play seniors soon at this rate.

Gallagher has been good. Sunny has been too bad either.

Hunt is apparently Bontempellis cousin too.

Darcy is a star . You can just see how good he is going to be .

Charlie Clarke has the turning circle of the Lusitania. Unusual for a smaller guy.

Gee the camera work is pathetic

Unless our onballers can get on top again cannot see us winning this. Missing McClean.

I’m not sure Clarke is going to make it. I’m in the recruit another specialist small forward.

Grainger-Barrass has had too many red bulls.

Good intensity just needs to reign it in a tad.

We need to stop this Bramble bloke.

I have concerns re Clarke however I assuage them with : he's young and some players take a while.

First time I've properly watched a lot of these players.

I'm underwhelmed. Clarke has shown me zero AFL traits and I'd be pretty concerned on his ability to make it.

Busslinger does look quite slow, but so is Weitering so his progress will be interesting.

Gallagher is the shining light. Pace, uses his body well, solid skills, good runner. Really liking what I'm seeing. He can play.

Gardner is average even at this level. I've been critical of TOB but it's clear he has AFL attributes which a lot of our other players don't.

Lastly, Sweet is AFL quality. He's a polarising figure on here in that he has his supporters and then he has others who like to drive home his deficiencies. I see a player ready to play AFL - big, strong, excellent tap work, improved around the ground. I'll be pretty disappointed to lose him.

Agree with these, although I'm less strong on Clarke as he was really good last week. I think west, Garcia, Poulter also show their AFL qualities - but at the same time show the reasons they don't get regular games.

Really frustrating quarter to not get a goal with our field dominance.

Good finish from the 50m arc by Darcy.

Sweet has been incredibly dominant
