R20: CCM v Victory at Gosford

[pjennings]

Berry played well until about 60mins when his legs gave out. There is a very good footballer in there I think

I like Berry but with Monty out maybe a bit more mongrel was needed.

That's what we missed yesterday, an enforcer.
Berry is a good footballer, with a big future in front of him, just lacks that street fighter scrapper that Monty and Hutch before him provide

Posco showed some mongrel, I really liked that. A few times he cleared/went through a player when others wouldn't. Good to see, need more people doing that. If we can't match them with skill, we should at least be making it a shit afternoon (capt. obvious here).

He actually looks better than Rose in that Possie at the same stage BUT he is not up to the required standard yet.
Looks like a decent prospect but too soft and raw against the big boys.

no doubt , but going forward . not chasing ball and making tackles

 

[Wombat]

Yes far too soft atm.

I sort of had hopes we'd scrape a draw out of this somehow.
During the warm up before the game though I had a feeling we'd be stuffed.
At the MV end they had a couple of posts on the edge of the 18 yard box.
One player would run in, receive the ball, shoot and leave the area clear for the next player.

Meanwhile at our end Appiah & Fab were crossing into the penalty area and our players were
running in to take shots. But they weren't getting out of the way in time for the next shot.
Players being hit by balls in front of goal. They seemed to be laughing about it too.
It was like watching the Woy Woy under 10's warm up, but not quite as organised.
