VFL Round 1 - Pies snatch it from Hawks

Magnificent game of footy from both sides.
Two point victory to the Pies.
Three goals to Wilson in the last quarter for a come from behind win.
Hard to know Wilson’s role on the day but his post match interview revealed that he went to Fly and asked for a chance in the front half, so maybe he comes good as a hybrid forward. He’s a lovely set shot on goal.
Jetta could still play AFL on todays game. He will be a massive assist to our developing defenders.
Great team win !

Johnson has x factor and looks dangerous one on one. He'd go well in the seniors with the type of F50 delivery he'd get from our midfield.
I liked the look of Begg too. But he's gonna need a couple of pre seasons to put some muscle on his light frame.
Tadrew and Jetta were excellent and showed great leadership.

Callum Brown had a tremendous game, too. He had a 21-disposal second-half and, on a day when most of our medium-sized players struggled at the fall of the ball, he really stood out. He was by miles the best of our AFL-listed players. If a mid went down at training during the week, he'd be the one who would have to be called up.
It was the sort of performance that in previous years would have resulted in him being taken out of the VFL midfield and played as a defemsive forward in the AFL, where his confidence would be dented and his talent wasted. A few more games like today's and the seniors won't have to be bringing Elliott into the centre square.
Also, for those who didn't see the game, look for his long, running goal in the highlights.

Top effort - all of them except Callum Brown looked to be going up and down in the one spot with 10 minutes to go. Great effort by Wilson - he continues to show, at this level, why the Club has high hopes.
