It's what you've all been asking with the flood of PMs asking for my player ratings (well, not really), so here goes. Please agree or disagree. That's what a forum is for.
Grimes: 6.5/10 underrated and showing us all what he can do as our 3rd tall defender.
Prestia: 6/10 I was pleased with Dion's game. Not the gun we thought he would be so far, but with n preseason, he is still bringing others into play.
Martin: 8.5/10 Beast mode again. Clutch goal in the 3rd. 30 touches. Owned the G.
Ellis: 9/10 Wow. Massive game. Put his body on the line, which is something we generally don't associate with Brandon's game. Was BOG in my opinion.
Grigg: 6.5/10 Valuable link up game again. Wasn't quite up to his usual self, but was clearly one of our best.
Riewoldt 4.5/10 Kicking for goal was poor. Great goal in the last term though. Needs to convert better. Don't reckon he's been kicking well since the 2016 bye.
Cotchin: 8/10 Massive skipper's game. Oozed class but also did the hard stoppage work.
Edwards: 7/10 Was busy without being a stand out. But made things happen. I like a 15-touch game from Edwards if what he touches turns to gold.
Astbury: 8/10 Probably our most underrated player. How much this kid has improved is staggering.
Short: 5/10 Provided some run and carry at various times and gets a pass mark. Still learning.
Elton: 3/10 Kicked a goal and brought the ball to ground. Still doesn't offer enough.
Short: 5.5/10 Did his job. Good game without being great. Applied pressure.
Rioli: 4/10 Quiet as he has been for a few weeks now. Still applies plenty of pressure. Money can't buy the type of stuff he does in the forward 50.
Rance: 8/10 Just the best backman in the comp. Gave Cletus a bath.
Caddy: 6.5/10 I liked his game. Doesn't get a lot of it, but he didn't at Geelong either.
Lambert: 5/10 Plays his role. Not the most talented as well all know, but goes within his limitations and does it well. Probably competing with Miles or Townsend as that mid/flanker who goes hard at it.
Nankervis: 7/10 Beaten in the ruck contests as he is most weeks, but his gial in the last was special. Lloyd: 2.5/10 I'm a fan of Lloyd's. But his game last night was pretty bad. He needs to nail any kicks for goal and is just not doing that.
Bolton: 5/10 Tackling machine and I like how he is tracking. He will find himself out of the side for a spell soon, but he and Rioli in our forward 50 will be easy on the eye for years to come.
McIntosh: 6/10 Been a critic of his, but he is making solid decisions with the ball lately and is strong in the contest.
Menadue: 6.5/10 Loved his run and carry.
Castagna: 4/10 Would need more from him. Missed a gettable set shot in the last with an out-on-the-full and that's his job to nail those.
