Bailey: Won the ruck all night and looks like he could be our 2nd ruck option round 1, did nothing around the ground though.
Ball: solid game but rarely sighted.
Bateman: killed it first half, rested second half.
Birchall: started on hird and struggled, but came into the game after half time when hird went off.
Boyle: looked useles up forward then tried in defence and played a little better. overall a shocking game though, probably wont play round 1.
Brown: spent over 60% of the time on the bench and was rarely sighted when on the field.
Campbell: played on hille in defence and did a decent job, just got caught off gaurd a few times. looks a decent chance for a defensive role round 1 though
Croad: B.O.G playing at chf and looked incredible in the first half. rested after half time though.
Dawson: played on courtney johns who beat him overall. knowhere near the quality of game he had against perrie last week. 50% chance round1.
Ellis:very skinny, played second half and looked nervous at first.after he got into it he looked class. i can see why they compare him to dal santo.
Franklin: didn't do much, crashed a few packs, but didnt hold any marks. still yet to kick a goal this season.
Guerra: brilliant first half and reasonable second half but a few costly turnovers by foot.
Ladson: started slowly but then played very well. looking like he has come along way in the pre-season and im excited about his prospects.
Little: played first half on the bench, then came on and played ok from full forward, kicking 2 goals.
Miller: got a lot of touches, but still looks a little lost and doesnt have a very good football brain. dixon will replace him for round 1
Mitchell: brilliant first half and was best with croad.
Murphy: amazing first half on lucas and looks as if he will play round 1. went forward in the second half and didn't do much.
Ries:shocking game, handballs too often
Roughead:couldn't hold onto his marks, but presented very well.
Sewell: best 4 quarter performer, may play round 1 to tag medhurst due to brown being unavailable.
Smith: rarely sighted, rested after halftime.
Taylor: didnt do much at all, not a good enough forward option and didn't play ruck much due to bailey's dominance.
Tuck: good debut game off the half back flank. played second half and got a lot of good touches. looks a 50 game player already.
Williams: good first half kicking 2 goals. rested after half time.
Young: Not a very good game. gets the possesstions, but his foot skills were pathetic and he marks like his hands are made of stone.
Gilham: better tall defending option than dawson for round 1 if he is chosen as 1 of the 2 replacements for injury listed players.
Kane: shocking game.
McGlynn: didnt play first half. absolutely incredible second half, best player in the second half without doubt. he's come from knowhere and will probably be the preferred replacement over kane now.
Best: Croad, Mitchell, McGlynn, Bateman, Sewell
Ladson, Guerra, Murphy, Bailey and Ellis deserve a mention as well.
