He did much better than I expected.
Good forward pressure.  :thumbsup

A Edwards was a handy target across half forward tonight I though. Much better then Nakas!

Handy is appropriate. His goal was good worked hard and got the free and took a speccy.
Lots of 1% too. :thumbsup

No use showing it to Mcguane bents.
Better of showing it to the big Griff. Would still love to see Griff up forward than Mcguane or Lockup.
What Azza showed us tonight is just what is expected of a forward in regards to defending pressure acts.
If Griffiths could be a solid presence up forward, like Aaron was tonight, add to that a booming kick, he'd be a terribly value weapon in our forward line.
I can't wait to see it to be honest but I don't know if we ever will.
The club that keeps giving.

That third tall leading forward role will be up for grabs.
Unless Griff comes in and cements his spot at CHF thus leaving Vickery as the third tall, Edwards should have this spot. Has more skill than Luke and is a better shot for goal given the opportunity.
Will not surprise me however if Edwards loses his spot to McGuane later in the season.

Didn't think he was much better than when McGuane was in form

What stood out for me was his ability to take contested marks, especially in those one on one contests. As much as McG tries, he seems to drop alot of those marks when providing an option one on one.

Nice base, lets hope he can improve.

Played well and made a difference to our structure, was unlucky to not kick a couple
The question is consistency which was his knock at nought.
Stays in the team against the crows for mine

My concern is he played well against the lesser sides but struggled against the better ones but that may have been a product of where Nought were as a club possibly.
Anyway lets see how he goes. A good start. Lets hope he can build on it. :thumbsup

I was a bit worried at half time, he had barely laid a fingernail on it.
And while he didn't reach the lofty heights of McGuane's purple patch, he probably deserves another chance against Adelaide to show us what he's got.
