Congratulations to Jack Grimmer - with his 186th appearance tonight he moved out of a tie with Sido Jombati and into 20th place in appearances (league era).
Interesting to me is that the return of Fred has made it a bit of an epic race up the leaderboard with Vokes (30), GMac (28) and Fred (27) all close together. I can't help but think the order will be flipped by the end of the season with Vokes out, I am guessing something like Fred (34), GMac (32), Vokes (31).
Also, Kone is close to the edges of the assist leaderboard already (though that is a newer statistic).
Notable pending appearance landmarks are Scowen passing Bulman for 14th, Wheeler passing Gape for 18th, McCleary passing Johnson for 22nd, and Hanlan making his 100th appearance for the club.
With Pattenden impressive performance covering for Grimmer, unfortunately cannot see McCarthy adding too many more to his total. Great club servant but better players in front of him.
If Vokes comes back and stays fit he could score his fair share of goals in this team. We are creating so many chances and for all our goals we could be scoring even more if our finishing were just a little better. We could have 8 or 9 on Tuesday and I don't think that would have flattered us to be honest.
The most important thing for both Vokes and us is that we don't just use him as a big target man to come on when Plan A might not be working.

Hoping to see Fred and GMac in the Too 10 for goals scored by season end.

BWK I’m sure, but I don’t think I realized Blooms had made the most FL appearances.
