AFL Rd 15: Carlton vs Geelong
Rating: A+
We took on a bogey team tonight and slaughtered them. They made some horrible selection decisions, but we beat them in any aspect you could imagine.

[2] Sam Walsh: 33 Clearance, 9 clearances and 5 tackles, and some 600+ metres gained.
[2] Tom de Koning: Tome played an excellent game tonight
[1] Matthew Kennedy: 31 possessions would get 3 votes most weeks. Really good!

[1] Jacob Weitering: Kept his opponents goalless again and didn’t lose a on-on-one all night.
[1] Blake Acres: A really good night for Blake and some straight kicking for goal.

[0.5] Adam Saad: Kep his opponent quiet and provided drive. Just another day in the office.
[0.5] Lachie Cowan: Didn’t get huge numbers, but 8 tackles and a goal looked good. Did his role well.
[0.5] Mitch McGovern: A solid job across Half Back.
[0.5] Lachie Fogarty: Loved his work.
[0.5] Jordan Boyd: Again, not huge possessions, but how many did his opponents get?
[0.5] Matt Owies: 3 first half goals, when the game needed to be won.

Honourable Mentions
Harry McKay: Didn’t have a big game, but still kicked three.
Ollie Hollands: Solid on his wing. Did some really nice things in the area as well,
Zac Williams: Quieter than he has been, but still did some lovely things. Did his role nicely.

Hell, even Fantasia wasn’t that bad. Pity he can’t kick over a jam tin any longer.
