He virtually won us the game on Friday in the last, and that maybe enough to get him over the line.
Hollands was as expected when he came on. Consistent.
But...don't give him too much credit. That last kick to Docherty was poor. Doch had space, Hollands kicked it behind him.
Docherty's bravery and the dees players stupidity made it all work out in the end. But that kick was poor.

A poor kick was the one that Owies kicked to a Dees player who was not even in the passage of play and did not expect to mark the ball, when Owies had, I think Curnow leading towards him from about 20 meters.
So I call this one even it was a good mark by Doc and a good/poor kick by Holland.

The kick to Docherty was perfect; Doc led towards the wing and Hollands put the ball in front of him, giving Doc’s opponent no chance. If Hollands had kicked it to Doc’s goal side he would have been running with the flight and the Melbourne player could have spoiled or intercepted.
The placement caused the defender to over-commit and that gave Doc the opportunity to play on and kick over the defence.
How much of that was planned and how much was luck is debatable, but Hollands kicked the ball exactly where he should have.

l recently asked a first grade footballer if a player missing set shots for goal deflated a team .
Unfortunately the answer was a categoric yes.

Jack Payne is in doubt - that would certainly stretch their big defensive stocks.

Have another look mate. Doc had 5m on his opponent.
By the time the ball got there. Doc was stationary, jumping straight up, his opponent jumping in front of him just missing the body and the ball.
If it was truly in front of him. Doc would've still had 5m on his opponent.

Last time we played Brisbane at the Gabba - Setterfield, LOB, Newnes, Corey Durdin were amongst our bests but lost by five goals
Hewett, Kemp, Acres, Newman, Fogarty, Kennedy, Cunningham, Pittonet, Cincotta didn't play in last years round 21 fixture.
Thats half a team of 18 starting players.

Should be nice weather for the game.
Forecast is 23, overcast with 20km/h winds.
Chance of rain is 20%.
But we all know how accurate the BOM is? :o
