Terrific effort from the boys even though we didn't win. Smashed in the first quarter (shot ourselves in the foot with wayward goalkicking) but fought our way back and the game was am absolute ripper IMO.
3) J Bowden - Terrific general in the backline, despite have 3 goals kicked against him J Bowdo kept Brad Johnson pretty quiet and provide plenty of counter attacking and run
2) Rainsey - Awesome game from Rainsey, gave poor old Matt Robbins an absolute bath while still creating plenty of exciting run off the back line. Rainsey has to be the firm favourite for the Rising Star now!
1) Schulz - Thought Sarge was terrific. Presented and kicked a few goals but I was super impressed with his forward pressure and tackling. Laid a game high 8 tackles I think
Apologies to Lids (great 1st quarter but didn't see much after that, spent a lot of time on the bench i think?), Tucky (best game in a while, found plenty of hard ball and kicked it dangerously forward), Howat (impressive debut game) and Polo (kept Cooney to 10 possies and should have been in the best).
