Here’s how coach Jake Batchelor assessed the performance of each player.Jacob Blight (24 disposals, 12 marks, 10 intercept possessions)"Another strong performance, he was good in the air and it’s good to see him put some focuses into action.”
James Trezise (19 disposals, seven tackles, six marks, 95% disposal efficiency)“Played half-back, some strong contest work from him. We will keep finding ways to get more of the ball into his hands.”
Maurice Rioli (17 disposals, two marks, two tackles, one goal)“Played as a high half-forward up and around the stoppage. He went a long way to helping us win the game in that last quarter, with his ability to win the ball and stay strong in the contest.”
Jasper Alger (16 disposals, five marks, four tackles, three goals)“Had five shots at goal, he was very potent and also makes something happen when he’s near the ball.”
Tylar Young (14 disposals, four marks, two tackles)“Improvement on last week, he used his strengths versus his opponent really well and took some great intercept marks. Great game to build on.”
Mykelti Lefau (13 disposals, six tackles, four clearances, one goal)“Started the game really strong, some really good aerial power and then went into the ruck at times in the last quarter and looked extremely strong.”
Liam Fawcett (11 disposals, five tackles, three marks, one goal)“Three shots at goal, tough day for accuracy but kept presenting really well.”
Jacob Koschitzke (10 disposals, five marks, one tackle)“Played a solid game, didn’t stuff the stats sheet. He played his role and defensively he’s really strong, he sets up behind the ball for us really well.”
Oliver Hayes-Brown (10 disposals, 20 hit-outs, six clearances)“Had a good battle with their ruck, he competed strongly. There are a couple of opportunities for little nuances to improve.”
Mate Colina (eight disposals, 13 hit-outs, three marks)“Great to have him back, he showed aggression in the contest which is his number one focus and he did that really well.”
Jacob Bauer (seven disposals, three marks, one goal)“Looking to find new ways to impact when we are going inside-50, in the air and on the ground. He rounded his game out quite well.”
Judson Clarke recorded eight disposals and a goal in a bright start, before he was injured in the second quarter.
Campbell Gray had three disposals and one mark before being ruled out of the game due to injury as well.
