Well done, lad. Hard at the ball, strong in the tackle, can kick to standard, and not over-awed in the slightest. Has some grit and bite about him, and injected desire and excitement.

But any complaints about overpaid are way too early, it takes time and a forward at Collingwood is the hardest position in the league!!!
I thought he was important around stoppages in the second half and gave us some physical presence in the packs at times. He might get a holiday after he got sucked in by that Carlton scrub but those things happen.

Impressive debut from Lachie. Showed he can certainly play at the top level. Lots of score involvements and his decision making was good. I hope we get to see a lot more of him soon.

I thought he had a poor night with a few brain fades, the hack kick on the wing to absolutely no one when he could have given the handball off. The silly retaliation that could have cost us dearly.

10 disposals and 8 of those were score involvements. Gun.

^While it hasn't clicked for him yet, he's starting to find ways to influence the contest. One of the best ways to reset is to go back to basics, as he's been doing with improved tackling, grunt work and run. He was more important than you give him credit in a tough, gutsy win.

As far as small forward trades from The Dockers we want more Medhurst less Schultz thus far
Chuffed to have seen 3 flag wins in my lifetime but still greedy for more.

I thought he was a good replacement for Adams. Happy to say he is looking to prove me right.
Not that being right is always important but when it means something good for the club I can boast a little. 8)

Now we're a club that matters.
You will have seen some of these, and maybe all of them, but if you want to understand why our club now matters, and why a shift in culture and character have made it matter, watch them in succession.
And whatever you do, don't miss the David Cloke video if you haven't seen it yet.

Lots of undisciplined acts with and without the ball.

Shultz is the player many love to bag, we always have one. He's in my 22 simply for his pressure on the ball carrier. 7 tackles last night with two clearances. He made some errors but alas so did others. I keep saying the expectations of him have been way too high. Everyone wants mega goals and it just won't happen with our game plan as we spread/share the load.

^ Yes, I don't get the negativity. He replaced my favourite player but I still understand what they want him to do and can see he's working his way into that. I think he was a bit frustrated at times last night - he might need a bit more team support from the gang during the week: it must be genuinely hard to manage the pressure of being recruited to improve a premiership team.

Also, I'll say it again - he wasn't recruited as a star goal-kicker. That's never been his thing. He was brought in to play a particular role the football department obviously thought we lacked. This is the best coaching team that I have seen at the Club since I first started watching them. They know it's the result - not the individual performances - that count and, given their obvious brilliance in turning a side that the previous coach couldn't get to win much into a premiership team (and the best team to watch in the competition) in just 2 seasons, I'm content to go with them on this.
