Best:

Minson, Barham, McDougall, Pask, Everitt, Henderson

Jake Furfaro: Did his job in what was a fairly consistent effort.

Tom Williams: Showed a lot of consistency spending most of the game at centre half back.

Teaghan Henderson: Put in a really good effort and was very honest in the backline and he kept us in the game early.

Andrejs Everitt: He has played a lot of consistent footy for us this season and that was no different again on the weekend.

Rob Castello: While it wasn’t his best game he still managed 18 possession and his leadership skills were very good.

Scott Howard: He is a solid contributor in our defence week in week out and he was able to hurt the opposition running forward also.

Dominic Gleeson: Got tagged which is an example of how highly the opposition rate him. He will learn from the experience.

Marty Pask: Played down back as a key defender but was still able to gather 20 possessions.

Cameron Faulkner: He went well and worked very hard in the midfield.

Jarrod Harbrow: He worked really hard in the forward line and his defensive pressure was great. He also spent some time in the midfield and did well.

James Podsiadly: Kicked three goals as he continues to work on the consistency of his workload.

Farren Ray: Was given a very big tag but he worked hard and went well in the first half particularly.

Will Minson: Dominated the ruck with 34 hitouts. Kicked three goals and won the TV player of the game award.

Jarrod Young: Gathered 14 possessions and did well playing mainly in the midfield.

Wayde Skipper: He was one of our more damaging forwards who worked hard all game.

Andrew McDougall: Finished with six goals and took seven marks. Also gathered 18 possessions in what was a great effort overall. 

Josh Hill: Didn’t have a big impact but did some good things throughout the game.

Malcolm Lynch: Another who didn’t get a lot of the ball, but he is getting good experience in various positions on the ground.

Gavin Hughes: Finished with 16 possessions and he was particularly good in the second quarter.

Michael Rockefeller: One of his quieter games as he rotated in and out of the midifled but still showed some good signs.

Nick Batchelor: Finished with one goal but didn’t have a massive influence on the game.

Jordan Barham: The coaching staff were very happy with his efforts and he finished with three goals as his form improves week by week.


Reserves with Steve Kretiuk

Brennan Stack: Spent time on the half forward line and in the midfield in what was a reasonable game.

Travis Baird: Played half forward and on the wing. He presented well and took some good contested marks.

Michael West: Played at centre half back and showed when he gets physical he can have a positive impact on the game even with limited possessions.

Stephen Tiller: Played at full forward and centre half forward and showed he can have an impact in the forward line with his competitiveness. Kicked four goals laid five tackles.

Tim Walsh: Will take a lot away from this match as it was his first game in some time. Finished with five goals and seven marks.

Paul O’Shea: Played fullback on their best forward. He reads the ball well and seems to be getting better every game in that position. 

Damian McCormack: Played 30 minutes in his comeback match and managed to gather 10 possessions and kick a goal.
