Yeah, he is AFL standard as a whole. But today he looked out of his depth and it is his third season. He has played some great games in the past, but today was a shocker.
He looks good when he takes a mark, but you hold your breath when he kicks it. That stuff up when he had the ball 30 metres out directly in front summed up his day. Not confident to nail the set shot, he passed it off, only to kick it higher than he did long, making it an easy chop out by the Port defender, leading to a 2 goal turn around and the start of Ports run on.
They were harsh assessments, but they are based on today only, because thats what this analysis is for. I am a huge fan of Bennell but he has been quiet the last few weeks, and today was very poor. Give Maric a crack at the G.
Gee we missed Davey & Sylvia.
