Quinnys (A grade) Postgame Report

 

We weren't at our best Saturday. A little clumsy or fumbly at times early but we were peppering the scoreboard but not putting them away. All players were having some impact and to their credit, Seaton hung in there and played some good hard running footy. 

 

We searched for improvement and eventually got there and again our fitness saw us through. In the end 36 scoring shots to 17 is somewhat convincing. 64 of this seasons goals were out of the side so yeah although not perfect, a good result. I tend to get excited at what's to come from the group as I firmly believe we have a gear or two to go. 

 

Goal kickers were Dylan Gamble with 4, Hamish Gordon, Nick Ramsey and Adam Scholz kicking 2. Singles to six other players so that's promising. 

 

Our best players were plenty of good performances, Orry Cross and Steve Williams good in the ruck and up forward, Ryan Bartlett a good second half with Nick Ramsey busy all day. Luke May was good in the second half especially and our back line group led by Shawy was great all day. 

 

Our five best were Smythy, who gives his all, all day no matter where we throw him. Ryan Reavley, super clean and courageous across half back. Dylan Gamble backed up last week with a really consistent game and some real clever footy. Jarrad Braley was mistake free at centre half back and played a terrific team game setting the example we are after. Our best was Hamish Gordon who started with a terrific first half with both offensive footy and really good sureness and defensive work too. 

 

We now have a bye this week then front up to Golden Grove on their oval. A game that we now put all our efforts into preparing for. We would expect 4-6 players back to push for selection which will be tough. 

 

Saturday we train at midday at PHOS in the lead up to the C grade. Our chance to watch Popey and the guys go around. 

 

In summary, happy how we are going as a group, excited at where we can get to if we want it bad enough!

Craigs (B grade) Postgame Report

 

Having six player changes to our side plus a late call up on Friday can certainly unsettle a side, but what it does is give players an opportunity to show us that they can adapt to situations like this and still play good footy.

 

This was proven as boys got off to a flyer against Seaton last Saturday kicking 9 goals in the first quarter and never looking back.

 

With our backline under some early pressure our defence stayed tight and managed to create a few goals with their run and pressure which was pleasing to see. Although the clearances were pretty even all day it was around the ground where our midfielders dominated with their work rate and intensity at the football.

 

The goals were spread between 11 players this week which included Jono Koutsikas with five, Ben Toohey and Matthew Bate with four, Simon Bates with three in his first B Grade game and Sam McGill with a couple.

 

Best players were hard to pick again this week due to the one sided result but our stand outs were Kouta who has been slowly building all year to his best on ground performance while James Cadzow had his best game for the year at Centre Half Back creating a lot of attacking plays from defence with his run and high marking. Harmsy was strong around the packs after coming up from the C’s while Tooza kept up his recent good form and Andy Simpson played a solid game in the middle.

 

Every player did their part for the team last Saturday which was pleasing, but now with a week off we must start preparing for Golden Grove who will be tough test for our team and we need every available player to work hard in the lead up to this game.

We let them get the jump on us early last time, something we must be prepared for when we face them in two weeks’ time.

 

Well done to the A’s and C’s for their performances last week, it’s good to go into bye week with 3 wins.

Quinnys (A grade) PREgame Report

 

Tomorrow we head to Seaton for what should be a spirited contest. Last game against them saw us a bit strong in certain areas but none the less we are expecting Seaton to be up for the game. It was Round 1 last time we met and it's fair to say we have improved and are seeking a lot further improvement! 

 

Although we lose Daniel Hill, Matty Jacquier, Tom Quinn, Sam Williams all to injury and Kris Evans unavailable our five ins of Harry Young, Andrew Harris, Wil Papatolis, Brent Eddy and Paddy Hamden more than compliment the group. Big Harry plays his first game for the year after a interrupted (work commitments) first half but a bundle of goals says he's good to go. Paddy Hamden comes in and we are excited at what he brings! 

 

So our depth will be tested again this year and all these little hiccups so to speak are character defining and building! It gives these five players a crack at it and hopefully forces the coaching staff to assess things even harder so it's not as simple as five in, five out! 

 

So far I'm very proud of the group and even more excited at the improvement they can achieve! Tomorrow is the chance to be "good at being good"! That's not about Seaton, that's about PHOS driving the improvement! 

 

All the best to Craig and the B's and Popey and the C's. 

 

Also Ben Toohey on his 50th game. 

 

Web Pregame

 

57 point win last week against Plympton suggests it was an easy game, those involved & watching know it wasn't easy. Plympton were fiercely determined and were in the game right up to the last quarter.

 

The Bs were far too good last week & the Cs will be looking for a win after a loss to top side Scotch.

 

Round 10: marks the half way point of 2015 where we have played each team once and now have the return bouts. This week we play Seaton Ramblers.  Last time we played the Rams the boys got off to a solid start with a 91 point win despite some untoward 'rubbish' (as Quinny would say) employed by our opponents. Tom Quinn kicked 6 and Rama, Gordo, Sopes & Smythy had very good games. 

 

Changes:

(Ins):  B. Eddy,  P. Hamden, A. Harris, W. Papatolis, H. Young

(Outs) : K. Evans, M. Jacquier, Hill, T. Quinn, 11 S. Williams

 

 

The C's take on Trinity OS away @ 12:15pm..the Lions are 7th position with 2 wins 6 losses.

 

Seaton sounds like a long way away, but its the oval you drive past on West Lakes Blvd to footy park. Be good to see heaps of Phantom supporters out there.

 

Go Phantoms

 

 

 

Craigs (B grade) PREgame Report

 

 

We have a chance to keep our momentum going in the B grade this week in a return bout with Seaton Ramblers who will be keen to make an impression after we beat them convincingly in round one.

 

With six changes to our B grade side, including five players promoted to the A’s, we will certainly have our depth tested but we can more than cover the players with talent like Curtis Harms, Sam McGill and Josh James that played well in the C grade last week.

Included in our changes this week is Simon Bates who comes in for his first B Grade game for the club. Batesy has been performing well in the C’s and comes highly recommended by Popey who has been impressed with his workrate around the ground.

 

Seaton will be a test of our resolve this week and we must be prepared to do what is right for the team and stick to our game plan in order to get the required result. We mustn’t be fooled by ladder positions as they will be keen to get their second win against us and will come out ready to play. Previous weeks have shown us that if we are disciplined and each player plays their role then the scoreboard looks after itself. Our aim is to play with high intensity every week, that is how we will become a better side.

 

 

Well done to Ben Toohey who is playing his 50th game this week on the back of a couple of solid performances in the twos.

 

Good luck to the A’s who must stay focussed and the C’s who will be keen to get back on the winner’s list, let’s come home with 3 wins this week!
