Rusty and slow, but was involved a bit early. Not unexpected, and nice he got a taste, but probably shouldn't play next week even if Melksham isn't fit.

He was solid, probably a good game to ease back into becuse of the lack of pressure/speed in the game.
Not sure why we expect players coming back from injury to come in and dominate, little own a bloke who had two years off.

21st player picked next week maybe 20th now with Smith.
Put a tick next to his name there and move on.

He looked very slow and his skills were poor but he found plenty of the ball. He’d be getting another game if I was picking the side. We don’t have heaps left in the cupboard and I reckon VDB has a bit of upside. If he can get some match fitness and pick up the speed of the game over the next few weeks he’d be very handy in a final.

I know Gold Coast had a piss weak side on the park. But still got joy out of their inability to tackle VDB. Shake of the hips and they gone!
Was good last week also. I had forgotten how good he can be, very effective player.

Probably only a B or C for talent. But * me the guy runs through people as well as I've ever seen at Melbourne.

Guthrie. Selwood is Viney's.

I'm so happy this guy is back. I think the players follow in behind his want to hurt
I genuinely thought he was cooked and thought people here were remembering him as a better player than he really was for the two years he was injured, but it's pretty difficult to argue with the contribution he's made since coming back into the team. He's not only tough, but he's clever with the way he uses the ball and never wastes a kick or handpass. He's like the Nev Jetta of the forward line.

Or he's injury free playing in a good side

He was outstanding yesterday. Refused to be tackled, and laid some bone-jarrers himself
At least some people kept the faith!
Oh yes, a thousand times yes to this.
No point running through Guthrie. His being afraid to go near the ball makes Geelong a much better side.

I dunno, psychologically taking out their captain is half the battle I reckon.
