Ross - was best to half-time. Killed it in the middle. Looked like he was being managed in the 2nd half spending time off the ground then having bursts on.
RCD - one of his best games. A more complete well-rounded game. Worked and won the ball inside & outside and chased and tackled well.
CCJ - aside from the 3rd quarter, he was the best big man on the ground for mine. Spent time rotating between ruck and forward. Tap work was good and he kicked 2 goals.
Ryan - Spent today mostly up forward. Dead eye dick with his goalkicking today. I didn't think he was that influential today as previous games. He did kick 2 of his 3 goals in the last quarter.
Martyn - got enough of the ball but his disposal was a bit off today.
M.Rioli - first half was spent as a small forward before being moved on ball for a lot of the 2nd half. Kicked 2 ground level goals. Still not ready for AFL but what he does is special. Once these cameos turn into regularly getting the ball he's going to be scary. Nails players in tackles.
Garth, DES, Naish and Chol had their typical games.
Stack - didn't get a lot of it but he was managed. When he was on the ground his effort looked committed. IMO the coaches would be satisfied with his first game back.
Of our VFL-listed player, Henderson in defence and Melville were most impressive.
