Not so top heavy. An extra running small is oh so handy. - My concern is that if our ruck gets injured we have no established ruckman to replace him. I would not want to see Harry rucking at centre bounces as it will take him away from his forward role and as LP has mentioned opens him up to PCL injures as well.
Our only lapse was the last 7 or 8 minutes. Huge step re persistence. - Was disappointed as well as percentage will matter.
I saw why Fantasia was chosen over Durdin, narrowly. - An improvement today. Would like to see him hit the scoreboard a bit more.
McGovern so supreme in defense. - Took two absolute specs today. However went off twice during the match and down to the rooms not sure what for but with his injury record was very concerned.
Walshy great but gotta clean up on disposal, handed them possession too many times. - Yesss. Missed Charlie by two meters when he was alone and the ball landed or was marked by Mac some 10 meters behind Charlie. Could of been # 5 for Charlie.
I think we have to live with the fact that Charles is spasmodic, laconic and inconsistent... but when he's on, he's an amazing weapon and turns games. - Yes. Charlie has mentioned that he likes to wrestle with his opponents. I thought Mac was the ideal opponent do do that with today however he never got into much of a wrestle with him. On the lead Mac had the pace and athleticism to go with him and punch the ball clear. Reminds me a bit of a young Dustin Fletcher with those inspector gadget arms of his.
Martin showed what a small forward can doing hanging around H and Charles. Too much talent to be used as a lock down defender. Great opportunistic goal sense. - Martin or Williams?
Cincotta sacrificed his game to play his lock down role really well. - Yes liked his game and seems to be very reliable. Did a great job on Picket a couple weeks a go.
Got a beaut with E Hollands. Just used the aggot so well. - And was used in the midfield more this week. More options and versatility for the team.
Crippa shone. - Say no more. Noticing more that he seems to be running a lot better this year as he is running away from opponents.
To be honest, I wouldn't make any changes for next week. Saady and Fog will be better for the run. Motlop needs another game in the Magoos. Maybe Billy for Jack as the sub. - Yes agreed.
