Now that I've cooled off.
- I thought Acres was good. He was given a role in the ruck and was quite handy at it, beat their ruckman on occasion, showed some physical pressure at the contest, and helped us get a few good clearances. Both good coaching and good work from the player.
- Lobb wasn't as bad as people thought on lead, but was much worse kicking for goal. But ultimately there was too little ground level support for our forwards.
- Darcy was immense and he has the same problem as Sandilands—we don't get the most use out of his ruck dominance. His injury will hurt.
- Fyfe in the third was what almost got us the lead. Superb footballer. His injury will also hurt.
- Cox had a great return to form after a bad game against Port. His injury ... as above.
- Henry and Treacy had not quite break out games. Sadly I think our chances of having better performances this season are disappearing before our eyes, so their ability to have true break out games may not happen this year.
- I understand the reasons behind teaching Serong how to be defensive, but sometimes you have to let your best players loose. With the injury to Fyfe he's probably going to be given a bigger role in the middle. Hopefully his short apprenticeship as tagger has matured him even further.
