And I should say, what impressed me most wasnt his frame or contested work, but his poised ball use under pressure.

How good was that slight jink to the left suggesting he was going corridor, and instead squaring up and kicked to a free player (can't recall who) inside 50

Roo, I think, but yeah, was very impressed on the replay.

I watched the last quarter again today and I think it's probably his best game.

I know he kicked some goals late last year, but he had real influence when the heat was on in the last.

Melbourne Media playing almost as well as the boys now (though they eased off near their final siren! 😄)

Just wanted to say that I’m really loving the dees crowd. I think we can all admit attending dees games our fans have been up and about but a haven’t been on the loud side or show much passion (apart from some) but I’m seriously loving ricking up to the g knowing dees supporters are turning up and being loud. Being in the crowd right now is such a great vibe and being able to celebrate goals and wins with dees supporters who are strangers sitting next to you and high fiving is something I haven’t really experienced much of being at dees games. Just wanted to shout out all you dees supporter and let’s keep on tiring up because my gosh we are loud and I think the boys are definitely thriving off it ❤️💙👏👏👏👏

The amount of people I’ve seen claim that wasn’t a free against McCluggage for blocking Langford in the goal square is crazy

McCluggage didn’t even argue with the umpire - knew straight away that he made a totally unnecessary mistake

Mustn’t learn the rules up in QLD!

Brisbane supporters behind us were happy to concede it was a free. What they didn't like was that the free was paid then, when they (and they acknowledged this too) had been getting away with questionable blocking for the whole game.

They have a point imo. If something gets paid, it should be paid for the entire game.
Equally if something doesn't get paid all game, a crucial moment late in the last isn't the time to finally call it.

All that said, I'll obviously take it!
I'll also reserve the right to be furious when we are on the wrong end of it... 😁

Or was it the one where he marked it in the first row? 😎

Does that constitute a break out game from Kolt?

26 touches at 90% efficiency against the bench mark, and that tremendous clearing kick from deep in defence that found Sparrow when the game was on the line with 2 minutes left.

Full credit to him and I hope he builds from that.

I really hope he makes it because he is a likeable guy with an infectious personality which every side needs.

Far out that was a shocker. 5m over the line easily. And he kicked a goal from it. 🤦
