We don't need everyone to star, we just need each player to hit their marks regarding workrate and pressure.
sat on the Roake Smith wing last night and he was great. As was Hannan. Both showed a lot of intensity and did some great 1%ers. McNeil needs to be managed.

Bankers
Defensive pressure across the park, and across 4 quarters
Brad Hill (I smiled every time he got he ball)
All 23 players, every one seemed to do their job
Anchors
Missed easy goals
Treloar's ankle
Allowing the Saints one goal in junk time
The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

I smilled when the Ball went past him and he did not lay a tackle.
Sums up the saints . I only had to wait for the first minute, when Treloar ran past him, receiving the ball. Kicked to Libba, who kicked the goal.
I think at one stage , the stat was zero tackles in one of the quarters.

When Bont kicks that dribbling goal from 10m out, Hill immediately turns around, arms out (to say what the *!*!*!*! are you doing) to his team mates as he looks at them. It was all their fault, and Hill just needed to let them know on prime time tv.

Ratten’s stern defence of him to the press has probably had the opposite effect than intended. There’s zero pressure to perform on him right now, which he seems to be very much taking advantage of.

Dale was sublime, the juggling dance through traffic reminded me of D Hawkins.
Libba has levelled up, again. That isometric strength he has inherited is off the charts.
Macrae’s stats read as good as any you’ll see.
A
Treloar injury a little sour note. He seemed to be getting heaps of it, but looked a bit hampered at times. Wonder if he was sore from last week.
No anchors in an awesome, even performance like that.

Bank
JJ - was really busy and impactful early and set the tone.
Bont - if you watch his highlights package on the app, two of the goals came from fantastic second efforts where he'd been involved earlier in the play.
Dale - 30+, 2 goals and unbelievable kicking from half back.
Ank
Nothing except the injuries.

Ratten's looking after their $900,000 investment.
