One free kick, 2 lead out marks to the fat side including one beautiful trade mark 2010 Aaron Davey delivery, 1 hard run to the pocket that was very good. But only 3 other possessions.

So the answer to that question it was because he hardly did do anything besides the goals. If he missed 2 then it would've been a very average game. His good goal kicking made it a nice game.

But I'd argue that big Tom Campbell from the dogs did more and got 1 or 2 goals, but he genuinely halved a bunch of contests that forced McDonald to defend very hard. And he brought the ball to ground beautifully. Watts can't do that and I doubt he ever will. That's why we need him up the ground and only a burst player inside 50 where his leading and accurate goal kicking is handy but not enough.

Even Jack Gunston at Hawthorn who is a high class undersized small forward rotates to half forward and the wing because you can't just be a one trick lead-mark in space forward these days.

Best line of the year - and not just on Demonland. Take a bow, Master.

6.Grimes - IMO he aint a mid and is much better playing in the backline

5. Frawley - was hard done by on a few occasions but just does the simple things as a defender

4.Davey - some great pressure in the second half and a couple of chase downs like Flash of old

3.Mckenzie - another solid tagging job

2.N.Jones - another solid effort not his best but just does his all for the jumper

1.Toumpas - the kid has developed through the season and the stint at Casey seems to have given him confidence to take the game on a little and draw a tackler before feeding off

I agree, and neither is Jeremy Howe. But when you've got such a poor midfield, occasionally players like Grimes and Howe need to go there. If we can get a proper midfield, I'm convinced Grimes can settle on HBF and Howe on wing or HFF.

And congratulations to Nathan Jones who makes it back to back -

A bit worrying looking at the bottom three rankings:

3. Mark Jamar

2. Rohan Bail Neville Jetta

1. Sam Blease

particularly as these include our No.1 All-Australian ruckman, a guy that played last Saturday (Jetta) and two blokes (Jamar and Blease) that Roos had question marks against but still included in his 'hypothetical' starting 22 in 2014.
