Quick one again this week
Shannon Hurn - Brilliant, only got 25 possessions but the way he did it was spectacular, kicked a great goal, one contest he outmuscled 4 Claremont players at once to take a mark and roost it 60m, great natural talent, failed to run out the game once again, lacks match fitness and a bit of speed, great thing is i see huge room for improvement even though he is still playing so well, good signs
Ashley Thornton - All he has is speed, hopeless at everything else, wont make it
Ben Sharp - Another superb performance, got a huge amount of clearances, 21 possessions but if he wants to make it at AFL level has to be more accountable, really pushing to be promoted onto the senior list atm and wudnt be surprised if it happens within the next week or two
Mark Le Cras - Good, but yet again wasteful, needs a lesson in decision making really, looks really composed, I think he will find his niche in the forward line he looks much more comfortable there then in the middle
Josh Wooden - Best game for a while in a team that dominated, got bout 28 possessions and used the ball very well for a change
Matt Priddis - One of his more disappointing games, probably worst game hes played in 2-3 years and still got 20 odd possessions.
Mitch Morton - Played a bit, looked very promising, very fast for his height, but got a knock on the shoulder and sat out the last half of the game.
Ben McKinley - Kicked a goal, but spent ample time on the bench when he was on he did some good things but definetly is carrying a injury, I think the club is givin him a chance to play through it, dont want another one of your draftees out like Spangher is atm
Travis Gaspar - Had nothing to do in defence, ball was in his forward line 90% off the game, he did kick a goal however and pretty much spent rest of time sitting in the goal square with a few East Fremantle youngens
Thats it, Perth had the bye and Gardiner will be back next week as will Butler which is good to see.
