In the end, we won comfortably. We had so many more scoring shots that it is hard to think what could have been. However, considering how few AFL Blues were playing, it was a great result.
[1] It rained a lot in the last quarter, and we were kicking against the tide.
[2] The VFL mids really stood up tonight.
Handley is back to the sort of form he was showing last year and had 35 possessions and 10 clearances. I really rate this bloke. His isn't a speedster, but he works hard and gets where the ball is.
Trudgeon was back after missing last week and was strong. He had 28 disposals and 9 clearances.
Young Patrick Dozzi had 26. He's good kid. Plays for the Northern Knights and looks impressive. Solid and hard at it.
Tom North played probably his best game for the year with 26 possessions.
Alex Cincotta has 25 possessions off half back.
[3] Stocker and Dow were solid without being spectacular. Dow was tagged tightly, but still got 22 possessions and 5 clearances. GWS were so busy trying to silence Dow that they left the others open.
Marchbank and Kemp were solid in defence, but neither really dominated.
[4] Pittonet and Mirkov dominated in the ruck. Both had over 30 taps. Pitto was dominant early, while Mirkov dominated after half time. GWS had a total of 4 taps for the night.
[5] Corey Durdin had 16 disposals and played OK, but he didn't kick a goal. He's having a very quiet patch at the moment. We really need him to step come finals time. Matt Owies should be available next week.
[6] We really need a key forward to focus on. Glass McCasker kicked 3 goals from 4 possessions, but we need real target is we are going to go places.
