Max King brings the ball to ground for a resulting goal. Kid is a star even when he doesn't star.


This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

That's what you want from a forward. Even if you don't get goals, to influence the game like that is key.

I'm thinking Billings role needs to be thought through. Him and Hill are 'soft' but if you can build your gameplan on how you use them well, you can push their strengths.

Billings 6 touches and a goal that quarter. This kid needs to realise he’s a man now and how good he can be

So, are we home?

Solid, Pro quarter that one.

Held em goal less and broke it open. That forward half pressure shut them right down.

Really should be further ahead but I'll take it.

That repeated chase from King was exceptional.
