Thought Kennedy, Gibbons, Martin, Pittonet and Casboult were our best on a night when Cripps and Docherty were relatively quiet.
Kennedy provided that aggressive big body that we’ve been craving in the middle and is moving much more freely than he has for a long time. Very happy for him as it’s been a long road from that wretched ankle injury.
Gibbons now belongs at this level and is a consistent contributor and Martin was all class at critical times of the game and showed that he’s as adept as a marking forward as he is on the ground. Thank you SOS.
Our key position talls did everything that could reasonably be asked of them and it was great to see Betts, McKay, Gov and Casboult finish the work up the ground so efficiently.
Samo, Setterfield, Walsh, Williamson, Simpson all had good moments
Areas to improve, Murphy & Cunningham have far more to give and Plowman and Newnes need to work on eliminating mistakes
Overall a great feeling to win by 50+ and a huge step forward for our club!
Thought both Plow and Newnes were very solid. Sure Plow slipped over tailing Bont on the lead once...other than that?
The ex Sainter, clearly improving every week. Am I sold? No and he's first on the chopping block but short of injuries to Smurf/Crippa you keep the winning 22.
Finals, then 4 in a row!
