Eckerslie looked a class above. Right place, right time. Quality one touch passing, and he played brilliantly with Kyel Reid - maybe because they're both used to premiership level training? Howard's goal was absolutely sublime. I'd start with Reid rather than Nardi. And who do I feel sorry for at the moment? Marc "Surplus to requirements" Richards. It'll be a shame to see him go.
1st half Eckers looked like he'd never played footy before. I wish I had seen the game that some on here have.
RE: 1st half Eckers looked like he'd never played footy before. Eckers got better as the game went on, and at times could put a tackle in rather than standing the player up. Had the same conversation with my dad on way to car after game about link up with Reid and Eckersley.
yeah he did get better, but I don't think he was THAT bad first half He and Hassell as full backs is fine by me though.
RE: 1st half Eckers looked like he'd never played footy before. And you still haven't managed to work it out!
