He started side by side with his opponent, and 15 metres into his lead he seemed to have made 5 metres on him. Just works so hard and has genuine pace on the lead.
Secondly, I never realised he had such clean hands around his ankles. The pick up and snap for his 5th was something special.
Thirdly, if he can produce that sort of game next year, Jarrad and Big Bad will give back lines plenty of headaches next year. If one draws the main offender the other could run amok on the lead.
If Jarrod Harbrow wasn't going to the Gold Coast next year I would have left that match a pretty happy man. The future ain't lookin bad.
