He was good coming on as a Sub against WCEs. Just wonder how many games offer those opportunities for an inside mid to influence late in the game when it typically becomes more about outside run and creativity. Or were suggesting his pace and kicking are as good as Gia's?
Not suggesting he is anything like Gia, nor does he have to be. I'm saying that having a fresh inside mid to win the pill over others who are tiring could be just as valuable as a fresh outside player. After all, someone needs to get it to the outsiders before they can do their thing right? Dominating clearances late in the game could be the difference.
Hopefully they'll do away with the Sub concept in 2015 and it won't be an issue.

He has played ok, a few turnovers annoyed me but he wasn't alone there.

He can certainly butcher the ball, but at least he's getting it

A lot of poor disposal from Adams, Thomas and the perennial offender Toovey, who seems to escape this criticism somehow.

Ball / Blair not doing much. Jesse White crap. Could have picked that before the game.

He's having a barry crocker. That head duck in the marking contest and losing the one on one with daisy plus numerous ball butchering disposal hurts. He's not alone by the way, we have many spuds.

He is having a go, maybe he is just not good enough

Adams will be fine. He's played well tonight.

Another top 3 possession game from Adams. The kid is a gun. Can't wait to see him play in September.

Still does some cringeworthy stuff from time to time, but he sharpened up his disposal a lot. He'll be a good one.

Was ok not tonight. Not in our absolute best, but again won the hard ball. Only the 1 clearance.
Well done boys!
