Great win away from home, and much to like about the team as they grow. A definate style is emerging that seems to be combining the well organised defence of the modern era with pace moving the ball forward. Well done to the coaching team and the senior players that are doing some very heavy lifting as they carry many of the young players through their first 30 odd games.
Gibbs played his best game since the 2013 elimination. Combining long accurate kicking with 10 tackles and 2 very classy goals is a 10 out of 10 performance. Liked many of our young midfielders. They drifted in and out, but worked hard. Boekhoarst, despite missing his second chance with a silly dribble kick added run. The run is especially important as we are playing a 5 or sometimes 4 man forward line.
Actually felt casboult has addressed the biggest problem of his game in the past two weeks: his work rate. He is getting to contests and bringing the ball to ground well. Problem is that as work rate has risen, fatigue has set in and one reverts to old kicking habits. His job is to kick goals.
Feel for barlow, that looks career ending, a real shame.
Bring on richmond! Should be a great day at the footy.
