May 10May 10 Mostly agree but thought Riv was pretty good. 23 with 8 contested at 74% and 5 clearances. Max was fantastic but as you say, not quite fantastic enough. Too much left to too few.
May 10May 10 Thought Lindsay was very good. Hawks wings aren’t mugs and he held his own and looked every bit the player I was hoping for. Won some very creative possessions. Turner went forward and the flood gates opened for them. I like what he does up forward but until we have lever back we need him in defence. Another great game by Gawn. Cherishing every memorable performance I get to witness now.

May 10May 10 Lindsay had IMO the best individual effort of the season for us and it led to a goal, so I definitely noticed him.

Footy IQ off the charts, so much time and space with ball in hand and super competitive for a slight player. To think he missed a big chunk of his first pre season with a PCL injury and is able to play full games on the wing, is pretty phenomenal.He will be a star. It was written all over him from his very first game.
