Captain, I am detecting large quantities of win in this sector
Again not much from Rohan i know he kicked two oportunistic goals but reallly gave us nothing else unlike Hayward who was good all game. The goals will save him from being dropped next week but will need a 20+ possession game to warrant another game.
Besides that great qin go Swannies
Anyone hear anything about Reid and Melican who both had ice on legs Reid to quad and Melican on hammy?
Encouraging win, despite not playing our best.
The defence improved from last week - we seemed pretty organised and made good decisions back there. Rampe has been a bit down this year, and started poorly again, but worked into the game well. Mills took BOG in a 'most possessions' decision I think, but definitely his best game for a while.
Notes:
- Hayward was excellent. Found a lot of it, marked well, adds a touch of class - yes, he's going to be a star.
- Sinclair's effort was outstanding. Ran up and down the ground well all night and made contributions at both ends. Close to my best. Again, gets the most out of himself.
- Hannebery improved from last week, although his touch in close is still to come back. Joey fought well, Parker was down, Heeney was one of our best. Wins the ball in most contested situations through his skill and power.
- Another game-deciding contribution from Buddy.
Plenty of improvement to come, but it's early.
My first SCG outing for the year. Good win in the end I thought. Hard-fought tight first half, managed to maintain the lead when they finally got a few kicks ahead. Sure, some horrid skill errors all round at times, but still early in the season. Reid right in front though...there'll be some teasing about that.
Really liked Hayward's game tonight, Florent too and Heeney. Sinclair was good. Buddy does a lot around the ground when he's not scoring - was just thinking he may not get one when he launched the 60 m bomb Thought a few were a bit down but no-one was terrible.
Anyway, just good to be out at the footy again. Giants bay was quite loud at times, given there were about 5 of them. Thought Lobb was done for the night in the first quarter, no idea how they managed to fix his leg up.
