Bluey, JON has a suspected broken bone in his forearm. He won me over yesterday with his guts and courage. He new he had done something to his arm and was coming off the ground and pretty much ran into a contest. He laid a big tackle and he and the opposition player fell to the ground on his arm.
After half time he went back on the ground for a while and played well, late in the qtr he came off and that was his day.
As for today's game, Collard was on fire. Kicked 6.4 and had 31 touches playing off a wing and up forward also. This guy is a total freak, he could be anything. Sat on someones shoulders in the last qtr but couldnt bring down the mark. I honestly dont know if Clayton knows how good he could be.
Cam Howat bought his own footy today with 38 touches and 2 goals.
Danny Meyer got through the game well and got better as it went on, fingers crossed he may show something for Richmond before the years out.
Gourdis was once again solid down back and continues to develop, you need to see this guy when he gets the ball and takes off. He is super fast, i actually think he may be more suited to playing on a wing with his marking power and speed.
Patto was very good all around the ground today also and spending most of the game on the ground will benefit him.
For the Coburg boys, Rayson also had heaps with 38 touches, Corr got plenty of it and kicked 4 goals, Currie was very good up forward with 4 also. Glen Carrick ran all day again and was at the bottom of every pack.
Ben Clifton chipped in with another 3 goals and has been very impressive mainly playing as a small forward.
Only injury concern out of todays game was Doc Davis who rolled an ankle in the last qtr.
Any questions, fire away.
