But still, my take away was how tenacious the new kids were. Best tackling I've seen from us in a long time.
Did anyone else notice how absolutely LIVID Bolts was when Freo got that easy goal out of the centre with 5 mins to go?!?
Mark my words, this guy has mongrel in him and HATES losing.
To those lambasting Levi for not handballing over the top to Buckley - the poor guy simply can't handball. I've noticed a few times now he just doesn't understand the mechanics of holding the ball with one hand and punching it with the other. Watch him. It's sad but true.
Casboult had 8 handpasses for the game and his handpass after the 'don't argue' resulted in a goal. His disposal efficiency was 75% so most of his handpasses must have been effective.
My impression was that Casboult's first reaction was to handball but he had second thoughts and held it back.
I'm not too fussed that he didn't handpass; it suggests that he still has confidence in his goalkicking.
