Coburg vs Werribee, Sunday June 26

[Tigermonk]

Thats smart playing a forward at CHB, these guys got no idea how. 

Pretty standard practice to play young forwards in defence to help them learn the game.

Thats why McGuane trys marking against the power forwards & looks wild a wild flappy goose

Development coach, David Newett, provides a summary of how the Richmond-listed players performed at AFL level with Coburg in last Sunday’s match against Werribee.

Ben Griffiths
Unfortunately, was concussed during the first quarter after a promising start at centre half-back, and took no further part in the game.

Ben Nason
His best game for several weeks, highlighted by a very good work-rate and spread, particularly offensively.  His 14 handball receives showed that he ran consistently throughout the game to link up play.  Rounded out his performance with solid defensive pressure.

Angus Graham
Was dominant in the ruck with regards to hit-outs, but didn’t always give the team’s midfielders first use of the ball.  Had no major impact in contests around the ground.

Shane Tuck
The experienced midfielder continued his recent good form.  Was Coburg’s best player and highest possession-winner, with 37.  Was very good around the stoppages, consistently winning first possession and providing spread, both offensively and defensively.   

Mitch Morton
Kicked three goals and looked dangerous throughout the game.  Showed his usual class when in possession.
 
Ben Jakobi
Played his best game for Coburg.  Displayed good intensity, speed and ball use when rebounding from defence.  Kicked a good goal in a contested situation to cap off an impressive performance.

Jayden Post
Had a good battle with dangerous Werribee and North Melbourne-listed forward Ben McKinley.  Won plenty of the ball offensively and provided good rebound, finishing with 27 possessions.

Will Thursfield
Returned from injury and turned in a solid defensive performance, with good spoiling.  Provided composed offensive rebound.

Robbie Hicks (Coburg reserves)
Played his best game for the year, with good work-rate throughout the game.  Was dangerous around goals and got involved in several scoring chains.  Linked up play with run and carry and his defensive efforts were an improvement.

Dean MacDonald (Coburg reserves)
Was busy early and had some scoring involvements.  Faded out of the game after that and needs to find more consistency.
