idk I thought Denver has been really good so far. Gets involved so much more at this level and uses the ball beautifully

More just a mixed game from what I've seen.

He's done some good things and then just had a few misplays too. He took a great contested mark in the first and has generally been more involved than usual, which has been good. But has been beaten by his man a few times - largely through reading the flight of the ball wrong and a few small disposal errors.

Mixed, but has looked good in the 4th so far, albeit not much to do yet.

Nice poachers crumb there by Ned

Good reward for an excellent game - has been everywhere and especially in the first half.

NED LONG! HE HAS TWO! Essendon's VFL outfit has made him look like prime Patrick Cripps. He has just moved so gracefully out of centre bounces today in combination with Hustwaite. He has been great all around the ground as well. Unfortunately for him, as our AFL midfield hums along like a diesel BMW 7 Series racking up the kilometres on the German Autobahn, his best form is coming as our midfield is at its best.

Geez bit stiff on Greene and Ramma - looked like some clear holding the man, especially Ramma

Ned long with 34 disposals 9 tackles and 3 gaols making it interesting for the 1st team selection panel.

Worst thing was watching the female umpire trying to bounce the ball in the middle. Trying not to be sexiest but that was truly horrible to watch. Boundary umpire need to work on their muscles but the rucks should have adjusted to shorter throw ins and none of them seemed to.

Hustwaite showing he could crack a game later in the year and depending on injuries.

Morrison forgettable game. Not getting back in anytime soon.

DGB up and down game probably slightly more up than down.

Scrimshaw ok but still lacking urgency.

Bennetts and O'Sullivan ok.

O' Hara still lots to learn.

Rama putting a nice season together and developing well.

Stanley and Maric should get picked up in the MSD.

Tucker was ok in the second half, not so sure about his chances this time around.

The standard of our “twos” is scary. Many of the 14 AFL listed guys playing today would get games at other clubs.
