Not sure he dominated the ruck tho.
Goddard had 38 hos to 21.
And 2 dads had 4 disposals vs 2 to Goddard.

Steady on. He was up against two really quality ruckman in Goddard and Eastland. Yes low stats but his contested ariel work was good. Took one mark. Kicked a goal from it. Eastland got his hands to heaps of marks inside 50. Dropped everyone of them. DBW the same, gets his hands to plenty. It’ll come.

Only going by the stats.
Didn't see the game.
Eyres copped plenty.
But his HOs were competitive.

Listened to the game it seems to me that we owe a bit to Grey and Payne.
Seems to me Paynes tag on Bolton exposed Bolton.

We definitely owe a stack to Brady Grey. He was sensational. How many balls did he win out of the centre?

Have noticed the coach is rotating a lot more players through the centre square now. Last week Fisher and Stubbs. This week he threw Marshall in there. Another bigger body. Even Nicho held his own when he was forced in there by mistake. I like it. Gives us a different look.

Shows you how depleted we are in the middle without Byrnes and Yeo. I agree, it worked today with Jones and Stubbs, Fisher in there at times. Stubbs was good. That run in goal he set up for Lennon Marlin was fantastic. He's got good one touch skills.

Agree Dazzler re: Stubbs one touch skills, good pressure acts also but just needs to find a little bit more of the pill. Hopefully that will come, he’s stepped up in class but signs are good.
Feel like we are becoming more cohesive each week, some great football played today.

Our defence has been down on confidence recently. Did anyone else notice that today with Sinclair back where he plays super footy, the confidence was back except on a couple of occasions we let the Tigers draw us too far upfield and we got caught out by the "slingshot" and were beaten for pace costing us the odd goal.
We will work on that, I hope.

Commentators were critical of Giblett.
They reckon he can't run.
Is he carrying an injury?

Huh? Can’t agree with that. He played on Hamp who took most of his marks pretty high up the ground. He’s got terrific closing speed for a big guy. Make a terrific spoil in the last quarter running same way as the ball. He was ok.
