What positives did you see from last night against Freo?

[jackstar is back again]

Collins ans Nahas.
They now have to put several games together with the same efforts

Tackling
Rance
McPhee doesn't play for us is a huge positive

Lots of positives actually tonight.

Any positives from Alex Rances efforts tonight Jacko?

Thought he was okay, 2 of his goals were from frees. An improvment, at least he kicked straight. Put it this way, if we were playing finals in 4 years time, would he be playing up forward, the answer is no. He was okay tonight, without being brilliant

8 kicks 4 handballs

Foley in the first half, Moore is worth the trouble and Farmer showed a little. Have to give Newman and Lids a pass for a change

Our percentage went up.  

Nahas looked like the player that showed promise last year.

We had 68 tackles.  

Rance working hard and being rewarded.

For the first time this year (that I'm aware) we actually matched an opponents disposal count.

We were much more competitive tonight.

Rance surprised me after I had half given up on him, playing him deep in the forward line where his hardness at the ball was a plus with the added benefit he didn't have to dispose of the ball to team mates.

Collins and Nahas were good.

-Our clearance work at stoppages in the first half was 
-We ran out of legs but didnt give up
-Foley showed how important he is, first half was giving us drive, ran out of legs.
-Nahas best game for us, he should bottle that.
-Nason again shows up most of our players for gut running and finding space
-Lids off HB
-Rance has looked more like a footballer the past 3 weeks up fwd than any other time I've seen him.
-Our tackling/pressure and spread from the contest is definitely improving

The importance of Nathan F to this team was highlighted last night...his work, in and under is A grade.....Poor bugger ran out of legs in the end.
Rance was good and hard at it.
Lids was very good too....i think its worth persevering with him across half back.
Collins I thought was clearly our best player......he looks polished  and like he has plenty of time...surely this is the sign of a very good footballer.


I think we are making slow progress everywhere except one place.............the bleeding forward line.....

Give it time. Taylor and Astbury will contribute more as the season goes on. Griffiths will get a game pretty soon. Reiwoldt is a pretty good player to have in the forward line. With more consistency in his kicking he'd be on 15+ goals for the season. Roberts will show signs after a few games too. Expect Morton to get back quickly

Rance starting to put it together, great to see
Nahas looked absolutely awesome, really liked his tenacious efforts
Nason looks right at home, just a real good footballer, we lucked in with him at the pick we got him
Collins was right amongst it and did some great stuff
Cousins was in there all night linking it up for us despite having a lot of attention, he still is all class
Dustin is a tank lol

Lots of positives from last night, more than we have had thus far since the season.

Martin: Just keeps getting better, very good use of the ball.

Delideo: Great game, the Deledio haters on this forum must be seething, IMHO he really played well.

Edwards: Yes thats right, credit where it's due, that is more than likely the best game I have seen him play, it's the type of game he has to play every week. If he goes to crap next week then.... well, we will see. Well done Edwards.

Rance, Nason and a coujple of others really stepped up last night, BTW can the posters that said Rance couldn't kick please stand up, best set shot for goal in the team at the moment..

Overall we played with confidence, great skill and passion it's just a pitty it couldn't last for 4 qtrs but that is the age of the team I suppose.
