    I'm unable to paste the freeze frame photo of Heeney's mark at his highest point, but i can't help comparing his marking ability to that of legendary Bob Pratt from what i've read & seen of his photos.

    Both are of similar height, have big leaps and cat like reflexes. No disgrace to put their marking highlights side by side for comparison. Pratt may potentially have taken more screamers which were missed due to vastly different media coverage.

    Nevertheless i can't help thinking watching Heeney taking his big marks is what it might've been like watching Pratt. There's no player in the comp like Heeney. DeGoey might be his nearest rival but not on current form.

    Question for those with more knowledge than I have....Rampe shadowed Greene most of the day right? Is Rampe usually calling the shots in the backline? Did his focus on Greene result in some confusion in the backline? Just asking....

    I want to know more about this Buckley character who helped Heeneys descent from outer space. “He did a Buckley,” will surely become a legendary moniker for someone who helps another in a genuine
    pickle.

    I believe Roberts look like he was carrying an injury as he was not moving as usual. For the record I believe Heeney is currently the best player in the AFL. Sorry Mr Daicos.
    I dint think anything was wrong with Roberts he just struggled to handle the the speed and pressure of his first final, but his first few league games were the same so I reckon he will step it up

    Can't have Adams or Fox over any of the players that played yesterday.
