Cutler getting around the ball a bit, my fantasy teams wouldn't mind him getting a run :P

He's in :D

I have him in SC and DT as i brought him in the second half of Rd.1 to get Langdon's emergency score.

Did almost as bad as the senior team...  :-[

Yep did not get a chance to post this earlier but with the players called up to the Senior side as well depth is really very thin.

Think we played some 17yos from the acadamy I think.

Read Gary O'Donnels review and summary at the end of Senior listed players. (Cutting and pasting not working and too much to correct) Well worth the read as it is a good summary.

Here are the round 3 stats, from the loss to Redlands. O'Brien really calling for an upgrade. Archie Smith had his best game yet, wining to hitouts.

And heres this weeks wrap. http://www.lions.com.au/news/2014-04-19/reserves-redeem-themselves

Did McGuane play in the Ressies as well as the Thursday night against the Tiges? (Although I'm not sure what he did on Thursday night could be considered playing a game :P)

Those stats are for last weeks match, not the one this weekend ;)

The NEAFL Stats are a little slow coming out and do not anticipate the stats for the Aspley game being available till Wednesday or Thursday. Rich has posted the summary which is a good read as it gives the Reserves Coach comments on the Senior and Rookie listed players from the game.

I thought that must be the case but decided to ask anyway. Plus I may have also wanted to joke about how poorly McGuane played Thursday night ;)

Summary of Reserve Grades NEAFL match versus Aspley. 

Great to read that Leppas game plan is flowing down to the acadamey as well.

We were not expected to win this game with 8 players from the academy topping up the list. Especially with Aspley flogging us in the pre season game

Read Matt Francis comments on the Senior listed players involved,

[CrowsFan]

"Ryan (Harwood) was brilliant in setting up our attack from defence. What was exceptionally pleasing from Ryan is that he put his head over the ball and won a couple of fierce ground level contests, which is exactly what we're looking for."

Put him in the seniors and leave him there already!

[Ringo]

Knew you would love that comment HB and you know my feelings on Harwood anyway.
