On the other hand, I didn't see him leading much. But when we got the about the 50 m line, we forgot everything that got the ball there in the first place!
Casboult took some nice marks, but ..... I don't want to write it.
I think Casboult provided the only lead for the day, and it was honoured! Our delivery inside 50 is still a work in progress.
I never thought Jones would play again at AFL level but I think he has earned his spot for another week and will keep it as long as he continues to present and chase hard. Slotting a goal or two won't go astray.
Interestingly, Casboult's field kicking is pretty good as is his goal kicking at training. If I was his goal kicking coach, I would insist that he keeps his mouthguard in when he lines up for a shot at goal.
