Pre-Season Round 2, Unicorns v Croydon Thunder - LIVE

Hi, I'm Jim McKoy and this is Barry Davis.

This has been a pretty good game, both teams are fairly even with the unicorns just getting away.

 

If you look at that quarter you can see Fisher had 11 kicks and 4 rebounds, he really stepped up.

He really found hes boots there Jim, there was a part about the 13 minute mark where the Thunder kept going inside 50 but always Fisher getting in the way.

Yes, and Bruce has been awesome as usual.

He has just hung around the center line, not going to deep and providing forwards with a decent amount of space.

 

Now we look at the disposal count we see Bruce, Mackie and Selwood all leading for the Thunder.

You know me Kim (its jim), i don't like to see backmen with high disposal counts, it means they are either pushing to far up the ground or the ball is going inside that 50 too much.

Well Mackie is a superb player with 4 defensive rebounds and handy run from the HB line.

 

Well once again we see Fisher with 17 disposal and 4 defensive rounds, Rischitelli with at great goal and 15 touches and 4 tackles, (hes been good Jim). Also Hale with just 5 Hit outs, but 7 marks and 5 inside 50s play at CHF.

Hale is a good back up ruckman he'll be interesting to watch through the year, also i think Fisher will be up there for MVP.

well interesting fact that not goal coming from the key forward so far.

Yeah, but there still a half to play.

 

Ok, here we go!

Ling, chipped to Goodwin...

3 steps, he kicks it...goal.

Fisher, to Swan to...OH DAMN!!!! Josh Drummond absolutely smashed Stokes there, fair bump, and he seems ok, Ling now has it.

 

He goes to Polo, on center wing.

 

Pearce now, looks up spots Pettigrew...Johnson in support will take it away.

 

Shaw is surround, great tackle Selwood, Goodwin picks it up, runs in GOAL!!

He has 2 and its a 5 point lead to the Unicorns.

Thunder up by 1,

Bradley to Kerr, Jones, to Reimers, on a tough angle will look to pass it off. No, he runs around the man on the mark...kicks it.
