What a ******* win.
Curtis was even better on rewatch. His speed of decision making and execution was nuts for a 3rd gamer. Also 2 great tackles for holding the ball in the last quarter was huge. Rhyce’s preseason meeting with him telling him to find another level is looking like his first masterstroke.
Jy. Goodness. He had higher possession games last year but this was the best of his career so far for mine. Played like a leader. Used the ball so ******* well. Composed in key moments. Combines so well with Cunners too.
Cunners played like what we expect from him every week at this point in his career. Absolutely loved him going forward, with greater midfield depth this needs to happen regularly now. He can be so dangerous down there and is as reliable from a set shot as anyone in the team.
Goldy may just be peaking. Not as dominant a tap ruckman as his 2015 days but his work around the ground as an extra mid has gone up a level. A couple of times today his use by hand in close was exceptional.
I could go on and on. Froggy deserves mention for his first half. Was our cleanest player and helped keep us alive in the match. Jed’s game went under the radar a bit. Was maniacal in some of those big packs and helped turn the tide in the 3rd. Polec doesn’t get enough credit, so good at creating time and space for himself to find a target. The undermanned backline gutsed it out valiantly. Genuinely everyone lifted in that second half and it was a joy to watch.
If it was our only game for 2020 I’ll take it.
