DOMINATED the hitouts today! Our midfield wasn't always on top but he was very good.

He had the same amount of hitouts as Ryder, Hille and Bellchambers combined.
 
Yep, one area I expected us to have an advantage and Jolly smashed us. Bellchambers probably broke even but Hille/Ryder got smashed in the hitouts.
 
Steps up when he has to.

Strongly suspect Bombers would have won against Wood, had Jolly not recovered from injury.

Leroy got better as the game went on aswell.

Was great in hitouts and last quarter he seemed to really be on the ball. He will start to come back into his '10 form in the coming weeks. Was a great game for him.
 
thought he was outstanding today, actually had him down for the medal in the last quarter, was tireless and did a great job against three rotating ruckmen

He pulled back a bit today. Didn't go as silly in contests and stopped giving away frees as a result and allowed us to keep the ball better. Was a better linking option than he has been this year. Lovett was a strange match up, one I believe Essendon thought they could exploit with run out of the back half. I'm not sure if Lovett was just shit or Leroy made himself too much of a target to allow his opponent to run off him. Brown wasn't great but he was much improved today for sure.
 
Good in ruck but hasn't been great around ground so far this year.

He was better around the ground today, he had 8 clearances today, together with his ruckwork he was brilliant, lets hope he keeps it up
