My summary
Cripps - Still is yet to take a game by the scruff of the neck like he did many times last year. Made a fair few mistakes during the game today, but when the whips got cracking at the end we looked for him on a number of occasions and I THINK he was starting to get some form. I hope so anyway.
Ed Curnow - I think he was on Boak this week and did the usual number (bar that miracle goal to Boak in the first). In the votes again.
Sam Docherty - Was solid without being outstanding. Not impacting like he did in the early games but to be expected and still one of our best.
Kade Simpson - Good game by the old timer this week but he still costs us at times.
Sam Walsh - BOG for mine.
Matthew Kennedy - Tries the cute stuff sometimes and stuffs it up. Just stick to the basics kid.
Marc Murphy - As I said earlier time to give him a "managed" day off next week against Norf and bring in a kid
Michael Gibbons - Good game by Gibbo bar the decision to kick long down the line at the end. Did he even look back at any stage?
Jacob Weitering - Another top game. Think he was on Westhoff? Only realised he was playing when he took that mark at the end. Anyway whoever he was playing on he killed them.
Jack Newnes - As always, some good and some bad. On the cusp of getting dropped or having a great game I think.
Will Setterfield - Feel he just doesn't show urgency. Just looks like he's jogging along. Then I look at his stats and he's laid 10 tackles??
Jack Martin - He's quietest game this year but still all class. Will bounce back.
Lachie Plowman - EASILY his best game this year. Showed some good form. Not his fault at the end. Let down by players further up the ground.
Sam Petrevski-Seton - Real quiet early but got some critical touches towards the end and was reasonable.
David Cuningham - Quiet for long periods during the game but then had that opportunity at the death where he could've covered himself in glory. I think he choked.
Mitch McGovern - A couple of cameos but otherwise another forgettable game.
Levi Casboult - Bad Levi today. Honestly believe when he misses opportunities like "that kick" he drops off completely. A real head case.
Liam Jones - Felt sorry for this bloke. Took on the monster Dixon with little help and at times did OK. Needed more support from Weitering and or Pittonet. Thought maybe Levi could've taken on Dixon but Teague seems to back blokes in.
Harry McKay - Shows he can be a star. So exciting to watch at times. I just wish I knew why he gets such a bad run with the umpires (4 frees against). At one stage he got a holding against him in the goal square and he was in front? How does that work.
Eddie Betts - Quiet one for Ed but always trying and kicks his usual goal
Tom Williamson - Quiet as well and made a serious error of judgement when he took that handball from Walsh and nearly put himself out of the game. I mean seriously why even call for the ball? Still thought apart from that he was good.
Marc Pittonet - Thought he got beaten by the new kid in general play but held his own in the ruck.
