My 3 word player analysis V Brisbane

[joeboy 2,918]

Jones - heart and soul

Hogan - an amazing return

Petracca - didn't impose enough

Lewis - an important component 

Brayshaw - classy but subdued

Gawn - failed to impose

Tyson - was rarely effective 

Oliver - eventually shook opponent

Hibberd - ragged but vital

Stretch - little to enthuse

Melksham - quietly undertook requirements 

Hannan - had little impact

Pedersen - the resurrection continues

Vince - the decline continues

T.McDonald - was rarely sighted

O.McDonald - stuck to task

Hunt - uncertain ball handling

Neal-Bullen - publicity stifled performance 

Garlett - 2 minute performance 

Jetta - was unusually quiet

Wagner - far from convincing

Harmes - some deft touches

[At the break of Gawn 3,805]

Pretty good summary this time. Stretch seems to have a bit of Jimmy Toumpas about him lately

 

[WattsUp2312 63]

Tyson - was really important

Gawn - needs a rocket

[Biffen 12,516]

ANB - Joeboys punching bag.

Good bar Tyson and Trac for me.

Very harsh on Hannan. The stats don't do his game justice.

I watched him a fair bit today. He times his run off the centre square perfectly to be the first reserve at the contest (better than the others). He got burnt a couple times in the 50 when open (when it went to a contest at the square). And his forward pressure was excellent, for example Brisbane were out on the members wing. He ran hard to stop the man who took the mark from taking off, forcing him to chip kick to the second guy out. Again Mitch ran hard to prevent the second from getting out up the field. They were then forced to kick it to a contest that went to ground as he had bought the team enough time to set up defensively. For this Mitch didn't get single stat but solely prevented them from getting out and up the field as we saw too many other times today. That's just a couple examples. I rated him today.

[Adzman 2,086]

Melksham - was rarely beaten

I am finding him becoming more and more important for us. Honestly did not see him having this sort of impact  he came across.

CP5's marking was amazing - his hands were vice like

[chook fowler 18,550]

Trac - much improved form

Agree but with one difference..... We didn't pick him with our NO 1 PICK 

Afraid that he is too small and not enough tricks for AFL.

Wagner similarly not up to it!

[faultydet 7,593]

Hibberd - Intercepted everything early

A.N.B - Showed great poise

Stretch - Confused and awkward

Wagner - Mistake after mistake

Hogan - Play better without?

[deeflog 679]

Vince - fine career over

stretch - hurry back Salem 

gawn - what's happened maxy?

Agree. Hannan works super hard. Hw has a terrific way if creating space and fights like a tiger. No way he goes out of this side

Gawn needs a bit more time and a "talking" to. Vince needs to play a more unselfish sort of game and impose his skills upon opponents more, Stretch out of sorts, and the Macbrothers + a few other defenders need to learn a fair bit more about minding/sticking to all opponent forwards. The whole squad looked less fit than the lions today. Ball handling was abysmal. 

[DeeZee 6,903]

Petracca and Melksham were much better than your ratings

[chook fowler 18,550]

Jetta - usual reliable self

[layzie 30,207]

Happy with these but Trac wasn't too bad 

[steve_f 40]

Pederson - can rely on

Jones - can rely on

the rest - Nah, not really

and started with

Vince - traditional dud kickout

Petracca essentially won us the game. Those first 5 minutes of the 4th set up the win and he was the catalyst.

[La Dee-vina Comedia 16,534]

Actually, I think Gawn's first 10-12 minutes of the third quarter "won us the game". I suspect the coaches gave him some "advice" at half time. He absolutely dominated the game in that period, but, unfortunately was relatively quiet for the rest of the match.

So for the first half one could say Gawn almost lost us the game?

One could, but one would be wrong. At least, not on his own. 19 players in the first half (Jones, Melksham and Hogan being the notable exceptions) almost lost us the game.
