Two North player who were damaging were Williams and Higgins, both seem to run unchecked, Samo had Williams but couldnt go with him and he hurt us coming out of defense as he is a good user of the ball.
Higgins seem to have a few opponents but none were able to subdue him IMO and we suffered everytime he got the footy.....
Kruezer played a great game on Goldstein and while I have been a critic of Gibbs and expected less from him this season given he wanted out I was impressed with his attack on the footy, work and tackle rate, one of his best games for the club impact wise and it wasnt his fault we lost.
North seemed to get more out of their quiet players than we did.....Wood and Garner didnt touch the footy much but kicked goals when it mattered...
Alex Silvagni continues to be the surprise recruit of the year and must get a contract for next season...love his physicality and SOS sure knew hat he was doing when he rookied him unlike me who couldnt work out why he did :-[
Cunningham impressed me, not just the goals but his tackling and persistence....see a good future for him.
Nick Graham...effort was there but remain 50/50 on his effectiveness...
re: Sumner....typical game..some good stuff but also not enough of the ball....but I prefer him to the likes of Boekhorst and Buckley....
Weitering was poor and seems devoid of confidence, some horrible mistakes but he is better than what he showed, good for him to have a break this week IMO...
SOSOS was also poor....looks heavy in the legs and not giving us much, reckon Kerr might think he is a chance for a game as Jack needs a spell in the twos...
