It is always nicer voting after a win. At least I got to see the game on TV.
Team: B
A win is a win is a win, especially when it is against the Drug Cheats. But, more than that, it was where we did not control the whole game: we were 21 points down and had periods of multiple goals to take the game by the throat. In the end, we should have won by considerably more.
Votes:
[3] Sam Walsh
[2] Adam Saad
[1.5] Jacob Weitering
[1.5] Ed Curnow
[1] David Cuningham
[1] Harry McKay
[1] Eddie Betts
[0.5] Matthew Owies
[0.5] Sam Petrevski-Seton
[0.5] Patrick Cripps
[0.5] Sam Docherty
[0.5] Matthew Cottrell
[0.5] Marc Pittonet
Explanations:
[3] Sam Walsh: BOG by so far it wasn’t funny. It isn’t just the possessions; it is how he gets them.
[2] Adam Saad: An excellent game against his former team. Would be very happy with his game.
[1.5] Jacob Weitering: Took on two-Litre Peter and smashed him, providing a lot of drive in the process.
[1.5] Ed Curnow: An excellent game from Ed.
[1] David Cuningham: Cuningham loves playing Essendon. He has played his best two game against the Drug Cheats. His kicking was delightful.
[1] Harry McKay: Kept at it all day and finished with 4 good goals.
[1] Eddie Betts: The different between close and through the middle. Eddie provides something we can learn from.
[0.5] Matthew Owies: His 2nd game was much better than his first, and his fanatical approach to chasing and tackling was excellent.
[0.5] Sam Petrevski-Seton: Much better up the ground. Made some good moves and had a good affect after he came on.
[0.5] Patrick Cripps: This was not Cripps at his best. He made a few errors and was probably trying too hard to make something happen. But when it clicked, it did click. His goals were much appreciated.
[0.5] Sam Docherty: Not as many errors today, especially with his kicking.
[0.5] Matthew Cottrell: A quiet start but took on an opponent considerably taller and tore him a new one.
[0.5] Marc Pittonet: Battled manfully in the ruck against a guy with a lot more athleticism. A very solid effort from the big man.
Honourable mentions
Lachie Plowman: Had a shaky start and allowed his man 3 first-quarter goals. Barely allowed him to have a kick after that.
Liam Jones: His man ended up getting some goals, including 2 in junk time, but it was the other things he did that made his game.
Jack Newnes: Solid and kept control over his position.
Liam Stocker: Not a lot of the ball, but he did some good things and made some excellent tackles.
Paddy Dow: Did quite well while he was on. He had less than 1 quarter and managed 6 decent possessions.
