If it looked hot out there tonight it was. Check out the tackling stats. There are some phenomenal numbers in there. If you have 5 tackles you're usually up there. What a collective effort. I'll throw some numbers at ya

Wills - 13
Adams - 9
Pendlebury - 9
Treloar - 9
Noble - 7
Brown - 5
Maynard -5
Grundy - 5
Sidebottom - 5

The desperation in defence in the last quarter was amazing. Howe's smother, Elliott's smother, Moore mark after mark, Wills demolishing the contest at the base of every bounce - respect the hairband! I love the effort from this group. They're greats in my mind!

It was a pretty brave effort. At the ground I though we looked pretty cooked early in the last and stopped being able to run and spread, but they never stopped cracking in. Kudos to the the boys who played possession ball which killed a few minutes here or there, i think we were in trouble if the quarter went too much longer and those wasted minutes were valuable because i don't think we looked like scoring any more.

It was great to see - not only the tackling pressure but letting a few Geelong players know early that they were in for a game.

Loved seeing Adams and a few other more senior players getting around Wills after he aggressively shut down contest after contest
