FAST FIVE - Rd.1 GWS vs CATS

1. My best player from last nights game - Harry Perryman: outstanding performance from him.

2. Highlight of the game - Dan Lloyd's two wonderful marks (& goals) in the first couple of minutes.

3. Least favourite part of the game - last quarter slackening off to allow Cats to kick 3 goals in a row.

4. Performances who lifted - Perryman was clearly a career (to date) best performance; big Sauce Jacobs provided the ruckman we wanted.

5. Team changes for Round 2 - just a replacement for Adam Kennedy: Zac Williams if fit, otherwise debut Lachie Ash or recall Jackson Hately.

 

[Callums_Guns]

1. Harry Perryman

2. So many options in the forward line, Langdon, Llyod, Greene, rotating mids etc

3. Something we are use too, umpiring some shocking no calls and most importantly not being able to be there

4. Perryman standout, Shaw under some real pressure

5. Out : Kennedy (inj), Shaw (omit), In : Williams / Ash, Hately / Reid.
4 goes into 2...lol, some tough / good decisions ahead for the coaches think Ward will be back in for Rd.3

 

[GWS Goose]

1. Perryman
2. When we kicked away in the third quarter. It was pleasing to see us step up when pressured.
3. No lowlights for me. Very high standard game.
4. Perryman and Cummings stood up. Kelly was a bit down by his standards.
5. Outside the injury, same side.

 

[gee whiz giant]

1. Toby Greene
2. The Greene/ Coniglio connection on the stroke of half time, with Cogs dribbler so handy going in at halftime. I think Toby & Cogs interplay in the forward half will be a feature of the coming years.
Also the Perryman pirouette in the (3rd?) quarter.
3. None really. Maybe Richo's comment. "no disrespect meant to the Giants, but they'd be used to playing in empty stadiums"
4. Pleased for Pez and Cumming. Thought Finlayson did well at ruck contests and kept effort levels high.
5. Impossible to predict next round changes. Am really looking forward to Jye Calwell getting a run at it.
