Good:
The Rachele soccer - every now and then you sit back and go “wow” at a moment of brilliance. That piece of ridiculousness took me back to the McLeod and Jarman days. Ludicrous.
Mark Keane. Look, the Sydney tall forwards are a joke and we knew that coming in, but after giving away a silly free early, and no doubt with the ghosts of the Amartey debacle in the back of his mind, Keane went ahead and dominated the entire game from then on. Dean Cox’s incompetence allowed it to happen, but still, an excellent game from a player who is developing very nicely.
Sam Berry. I think most people had pretty much written Berry off as a best 22 player. After formerly having him as my avatar, I can tell you that there were very few who enjoyed Sam Berry’s early career more than I did, but even I had reached a point by the end of last season where I thought it was all over, mainly due to his fumbling. What we are seeing here is hugely important, because it gives us another genuine stoppage player who can actually tackle, which frees up Dawson and Rankine to spend less time at these stoppages, and let’s face it, that’s a good thing.
James Peatling. Speaking of stoppage players who free up others. Going from strength to strength, and is becoming one of our most important players.
ROB. The big fella has defied the odds and hit a great patch of form. His tackling is a real feature right now and he just looks 10x the player he looked 6 weeks ago. Piss off Sam Draper, we don’t want ya.
The Keays / Neal-Bullen combo. Hassled and harassed all night, and destroyed their opponents.
Worrell. Beast.
Curtin. It’s not like he had a statistically dominant game but he had a real influence. Building nicely and understanding his role better. Look at the size of him too, imagine another 3 years in the gym.
Smith and Milera. Very solid games from a much maligned pair. Especially Milera, I thought he was excellent.
Cumming. Look I don’t like to use the term downhill skier, but…. Nah, he was really good, and he needed to be, because he was very much in line to be dropped if he kept up the garbage he’d served up in the 3 weeks prior.
Having the luxury of subbing Thilthorpe off at 3/4 time.
Bad:
Tex. Was shit. Clearly it didn’t matter, but he stunk.
Fog was pretty well beaten too.
Ugly:
Dean Cox’s coaching ability. He is blatantly hopeless, and I’ve been saying this for 6 weeks. They need to blow it up.
Honestly, the umpiring in our favour was pretty ugly. Bordering on cheating at times. If we were on the receiving end of that people would have pitchforks out so I feel it needs to be called out.
Chad Warner’s decision making by foot.
The clear and unavoidably obvious pattern that when a club gets properly smashed in a grand final, they turn into a rabble for the next 5 years.
Speaking of the word “rabble”, what has Milera gone and done on radio, uh oh.

Alex Neal Bullen 25 disposals, 1 goal, 6 score involvements
Isacc Cumming 21 disposals, 2 goals, 6 score involvements
James Peatling 21 disposals, 7 clearances 5 tackles
All 3 recruits are having good seasons and it makes a world of difference having them all in our best 22 compared to last year.

Isn’t he just saying they were a bit disorganised or something?
Maybe a little undisciplined?
Like ending the slightest chance of a comeback by giving away free goals just as they were getting on top in the third…
They just lost by 90 points, where is the lie?

Yes, I must admit I did find that quite humorous after they were calling them out for the undisciplined acts
