Gawn - far from effective

Grundy - had little impact

Salem - class was evident 

McVee - was rarely sighted

May - perfect defender’s game

Lever - safe and steady 

Petty - not always convincing 

Rivers - fumbled but effective 

Brown - had a presence 

Brayshaw- better second half

Pickett - was invisible again

Melksham - experience was important 

Petracca - was the difference 

Sparrow - tough and brave

Viney - great first half

Jordon - an important ingredient 

Woewodin - some good signs

Bowey - always under control 

Neal-Bullen - quiet after first

Spargo - didn’t justify selection 

Hunter - consistent and important 

Langdon - great first half

 

Kozzie - lazy and selfish

Best analysis yet.

Grundy... trade next year

Not a $700k player let alone $1M

MFC - Gawn or Grundy? 

I don't see any way we can keep both in the same side. We've really shot ourselves in the foot with the recruitment of Grundy.

Did he get it enough to be selfish ?

Grawndy did okay-ish (Grundy alarming ineffective with the ball, though)

...but... when Marshall has them covered in total for marks, tackles, and inside-50s and is barely shaded for clearances in a two rucks vs one game, there's a serious issue.

Pickett was invisible like the hole left by a cartoon character running through a wall - yeah, you can't actually 'see' it, but you notice it very clearly.

Thought McVee was excellent... again!

joeboy as Scot Palmer used to sign off "Keep Punching". Woe to those not pulling their weight!

In agreement on the above 7

And if all 7 played to their best, we win by 10+ goals

To win the flag we can't have too many players not at their best ... and we weren't playing against the best tonight either

St Kilda had 5 of their best 15 not playing

We did play quite well but too many passengers for a team that's ultimate goal is the premiership
