joeboy 3,193 Posted August 1, 2021 Posted August 1, 2021 Petracca - dynamic and prolific Oliver - outstanding first half Gawn - tried when required Harmes - prolific but wasteful Jackson - impressive first half Neal-Bullen - grunt was important Brown - rewarded for effort McDonald - quietish before injury Brayshaw - impressive gut running Pickett - some cameos only Fritsch - had limited involvement Hunt - run was important Rivers - was rarely required Sparrow - tough but limited Viney - great tagging role Lever - was impassable again May - destroyed his opponent Salem - efficient but quiet Spargo - had limited involvement Langdon - another quiet game Bowey - a promising debut 1 Quote
I'va Worn Smith 996 Posted August 1, 2021 Posted August 1, 2021 How much did we win by? In a national competition? 1 Quote
deanox 10,070 Posted August 1, 2021 Posted August 1, 2021 Joeboy - Late to party ? Pretty good summary. Appreciate your recognition of Brayshaw. Was a big part of our early dominance. 5 Quote

Agree 100% I hate his little dinky kicks and handballs. He needs to deliver long 50 yard kicks to someone in a good position. He has the kick in him to deliver longer. Just wish he would. 2 Quote
In Harmes Way 7,869 Posted August 1, 2021 Posted August 1, 2021 I don't rate the assessment of Spargs, who I thought was at his excellent best. 2 Quote
The heart beats true 18,201 Posted August 1, 2021 Posted August 1, 2021 Viney - Holding the ball! 8 Quote
Demonic 40 Posted August 1, 2021 Posted August 1, 2021 Far too generous on Viney. He was horrendous. 5 free kicks against! I repeat 5! Many of them holding the ball. Must be close to getting dropped now. He plays dumb football. 6 Quote

Harrison Petty GOAT 44 Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 viney was great defensively, but he gave away a lot of freekicks 1 Quote
rjay 25,424 Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 Viney - Thinks he's Judd Harmes - Thinks he's Dusty ...bit harsh as they had their positives but this is what I was thinking when watching them overdo it. An otherwise pleasurable game to watch apart from these brain fades and a period I think at the end of the 2nd (maybe 3rd) where we went into luxury (s...a...) mode. 4 Quote
