On last week's 2nd's game:
Marchbank - did reasonably defensively, but struggled to get the ball. Nowhere near where he can be. I'd be loath to play him.
Lewis Young - after a couple of ordinary weeks, Young stood up against GWS, took a few good marks and got over 20 disposals. His best game for quite a while.
Sam Durdin - did a reasonable job, but not really hurting anyone. 12 disposals. To be honest, Dom Akuei did more intercepting.
Dom Akuei - speak of the devil and Akuei wasn't bad. he did a reasonable job defensively and almost took mark of the year (again), but not a body player and not someone I'd put on someone who might be. I was surprised to see that he had only 8 possessions as he was in the play a fair bit.
That doesn't leave many options for a tall defender. I guess Young was the best performer of this lot, but ... :o
