This bloke was amazing last qtr. I was at the match, to see this bloke attack and win the ball eith such intensity was incredible. Him and Dids won the game for us in the last qtr. goddam what a win!!!
 
I have to be honest and I know I'll be in the minority but till qt 4 I was shouting at my tv- what was he doing ! he seemed to drift in and out to much too much for my liking - has not hit his best of last year yet - hope he gets it back soon

His first three quarters he shut Dangerfield down and did a terrific job. Danger was made to earn every touch and wasn't as damaging as he has been the previous month.
Daisy's last quarter was back to his best. :)
 
Tuned in for the last quater and a bit (no Foxtel - had to go to a friend's). I felt Daisy was the spark and the link man. I understand he was on Danger for most of he match. If so, he's played a great game.

Dids looks fit. Pity he missed the second shot in the last but it was the first (harder) that mattered and he delivered. For the first time in 18 months, he looked (a little) like the player of 2010.
 
Daisy to get Dangerfield to the cleaners last night. Great move by the coaches putting Daisy on him. Great way to get him involved in the game. Didak has always been my favourite player and it was so good seeing him back near his best last night. He's so important for us this season.
 
He was great, it was the Daisy of old, and once again Bucks was right, he said give him time to get close to full fitness and he will return, and he did.

His gut running in that last quarter is what makes Daisy so good, when the opposition are tiring, he finds another gear, and makes us almost unbeatable.

He really is a "tool" (in a good way) we can use late in games to simply break the hearts of the opposition.

Daisy's back, and the rest of the competition are shitting themselves.:thumbsu::D

Oh, and did you hear Dermie call him "Daisy Williams" last night, I did chuckle at that.
 
I thought it was a great coaching move by Bucks to have Daisy play on him last night, it kept Dangerfield double guessing what to do all night. He couldn't work out whether to just run his own race or man up Daisy who was getting outside drive but also kept himself inside.
 
Does anyone have his quarter by quarter stats? How many did he end up with in the last?
Only the AGE newspaper seems to split the stats up into quarters.

It says he had 13 possessions in the last quarter, not bad considering up to that point he'd only had 16 in three quarters.:)

His desperate attempt at a full stretch spoil in the last was awesome.
Missed it by millimeters but the effort was there.

Daisy in full flight is one of the things we have missed the most this year.

Daisy played it beautifully. Kept forcing Dangerfield into the contest so he couldn't run through the stoppages like a bull at full pace and then sat on the outside for either an outlet handball, or to apply a tackle to a stationary Dangerfield.

Outstanding game,will feature in b&f voting for sure.
 
Huge effort from Daisy.

Was enormous when the game was hot and there to be won.

It's great to see and know that we have so many big game players who can really stand up in important matches and they don't come much bigger than Daisy.

He is slowly coming back.
 
Very happy with Daisy's game only 2 weeks back from a Injury and with GC next week should have another good game

Not fussed if Daisy only has 'serviceable' games against GC and Melbourne. TBH, he's proven to be our man for the big moment and the last qtr proved that.

If he plays that role throughout the year (and finals of course) I'll forgive him the quiet game against minnows. Others need to step up (eg Sharrod)

I'm very relieved that he could show that in this game, because some may have seen my post last week giving it to him about his lack of effort. He definitely identified that (not my post, just that his game last week wreaked of laziness) and stepped up this week in good fashion.

This is what we want to see from him week in week out - he is a game winner...Gave over glorified Dangerfield an absolute bath. Young Patty wouldn't have needed a shower after the game.
 
I thought he ran hard all night.

He ended up on the same number of disposals as Pendles so it's not like he was quiet.

I think hsi last quarter somehow manifested itself as a strawman arguement where he apparently did nothing the other 3?

Agree, his gut running only took full toll on Dangerfield in the last which released Daisy to wreak havoc.
