I think number 4 should drop down to number 17 on the list after tonight's efforts. Three misses by my reckoning - sure other players missed a heap as well, but if Stuey can't get them through for us he hasn't done his job properly.

Salopek FWIW is a great conversion for goal - all the more reason it was very untimely for him to drop that mark just before halftime.

I watched Bruce really closely tonight and couldn't believe the difference in his kicking for goal. He looked clueless in the preseason games but looked really secure with his shots in the warmup. His movement up forward was good. He doesn't appear to need a long run at the ball like White does. He moves in a pattern within a reasonably small area and that should assist him to take grabs closer to goal. I think there's a chance he can be a good key forward. Early days though.

I think that it is for Port and Guerra is there from when he played for us.

These are from the AFL players Perkins has tutored - which would only be Port players (past and present).
