Early mistakes, but made some strong runs through the middle. Not the only QLD forward who was found out.

Geez, he was a bit unlucky on both of those misses. He played pretty well other than that.

1. One of the fastest halves in the comp, with time and space, getting outside of a prop.

2. Looking for some impact on Trbojevic and his outside defender is starting to slide. Didn't see Tedesco. It is his job though as the "A defender" though to ensure nobody gets into the gap behind the ruck.

He'll be better for the run.

Well said yourhero.

I was really pleased with his performance on debut. He was never going to be the most amazing forward on the park but I think he did the job that QLD asked of him.

Got to feel sorry for Tim. Hung out to dry (twice no less) by Chambers' poor positional play.

other than that and one dropped ball I thought he had a good solid game.

What does Chambers being at marker have to do with Glasby completely wiffing on Maloney?

Having to cover for a centre who was out of position as well as mark his own man

I don't know what wiffing is but I'm pretty sure 95% of middle forwards in the same position would not have been able to put hands on Maloney.

Chambers was brilliant for me. Made his presence felt. He's such a better player when running the ball straight.

Glasby's shoulders were turned the wrong way which is why Maloney got on the outside of him. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AW-s5Et821Q&t=80s

That's what happens when you have to cover your man and the guy outside as well

Oh please. Glasby is in no mans land when Maloney gets the ball.

Chambers was facing his man, the centre and Gagai got drawn in. Unfortunately it was primarily Glasby's miss, he'll be better for it and the criticism. Hopefully he has a blinder tonight. (I assume he's playing)

By the way; its Tim not Tom.

Tim is back and looking a million dollars after spending the offseason in Italy and in Iceland.

"It’s been good, everyone is in pretty good nick. This time of year is always hard."

The reliable forward highlighted young first-graders Josh Addo-Carr and Curtis Scott as standouts so far while explaining the whole group was in good shape.

"I’ve only been here for a couple of days but Josh Addo-Carr and Curtis Scott are training really well."
