There were 4 plays on the weekend, when after the dust has settled i look back and i say these are the 4 biggest positives of the day, they werent the flashiest they werent the most crucial but boy did they get me excited about our future
Dustin Martins STRENGTH Handball - 30 second mark of this video, the handball is in the end sharked from Pierce but the fact that he runs in takes the ball off salopek pushes him over,shrugs cornes than shrugs one more tackle all while keeping his feet in the wet is as exciting as anything he did in this game! he dont argued i reckon about 6 times on saturday and regularly pushes over men, this kids special

Cotchins SMARTS Vision - There was a play where cotchin intercepted a handball at full tilt hit the deck spun 180 handballed over heads of a couple of players and hit a richmond player on the 50m line cant find the video but boy this kid is clean, his hands all day were one touch , we need him fit and we have a very very very special player in this one, obviously we all know it but he did some things in the wet yesterday that made me stupidly excited
Ben CONFIDENCE Griffiths - watched the replay again and despite the conditions for the time he was on he was fairly lively picked it off the deck cleanly 2-3 times had one booming kick and more importantly that mark! more important than taking the mark the fact that he was willing to throw himself at it over a ruckman and chad cornes says something very important about this kids thinking! he looks like a big tough mean kid with an attitude and a booming kick!
Ben Nasons Work Ethic Running - 2 mins to go before half time ben nason layed a tackle resulted in a ball up in ports 50 after the ball up quick kick out to richmond goes straight to boak who nason tackles and as boak hits the ground turns and sprints to goal, the ball spills to the tigers 2 quick kicks inside our fwd 50 where nahas lays a tackle ball spills to Nason who runs into an open goal, was great to see a kid in his 9th game? to have the work ethic to lay to good tackles and the smarts to take off work hard and run inside forward 50 to create another option!
Strength Smarts Confidence Work Ethic
