Grigg showing what he should be that being depth at best

Grigg played a very poor game. One passage of play really sticks out for me. I can't recall which quarter Grigg instead of taking the mark he allowed the ball to bounce which led to a really bad turnover.

The thing that puzzle me is that senior players are turning it over time again.

Thought Cotchin was outstanding today

Totally agree. His disposal and his attack on the football was first rate. He set up multiple goals and despite horrific kicking to him made a contest when needed.

Positives for me were the games of Cotchin, Vlas, Rioli, Nank and Martin in the second half. Jack, Rance, Astbury and Grimes were all solid.

Broad started well but made some bad mistakes in the second half. Soldo played okay especially at the bounces. Not sure whether it was a success playing him and Nank at the same time.

Negatives: Grigg and Caddy played poorly. Our disposal and kicking for goal remains a real problem. Brisbane seemed to get the majority of their goals from simple turnovers. We over handpassed  and should have kicked the ball far more often.

The biggest negative for me this year is our pathetic conversion from set shots.

Someone's not going to be happy with Shane Edwards getting a vote.

Well he probably lead goal assists & score involvements for Brisbane so no doubt it was a well-deserved vote from Fagan.....:clapping
