TigerTime needs to eat his words, but I bet the stubborn prick won't. Deledio has been everywhere all night and is class personified, every time he gets the ball he delivers a perfect pass to a team mate. 16 disposals til half time even after missing part of the first quarter with a dislocated finger.
McGuane's attack on the ball, run through the midfield and attempt to create something has been great, good disposal as well.
Tambling has got plenty of the ball, disposal has been good too from what I've seen, I don't agree with the critics from the past few posts. That turnover towards half time was Bowden's fault for standing still waiting for the ball to come to him rather than attacking the ball like the Freo player who picked off the pass.
Riewoldt has come back with confidece from his performances at Coburg. If he backs up with a similar performance in the 2nd half then that's the level he needs to make his standard for the rest of the year.
Cotchin looks FAR less rusty than the past couple of weeks, I was starting to think he'd been brought back too soon.
I liked White's attack on the ball, his speed was breaking the lines and shame he didn't kick that goal he should have. He's out for the next month with a hammy now so I guess those who don't rate him will be happy for a while.
So far you'd have to say Brown's papers are almost stamped now as are Simmonds and hopefully Bowden also. They are our senior players and have done absolutely NOTHING so far.
Bowden - 6 disposals 3 marks 0 tackles
Simmonds - 5 disposals 2 marks 0 tackles
Brown - 5 disposals 1 mark 0 tackles
