    I really thought Goddard was good in the second half of the first quarter to help steady St.Kidla and get them back in it.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

        It's out of Goddard and Hayes, and Goddard wins for mine.

        Honourable mentions to Schneider, Fisher (kept them in it early), Maxwell, Thomas and Gilbert.

        And Koschitzke is a spud.
        I should leave it alone but you're not right

            Gardiner's injury will be all that saves him from missing out on the replay.
            What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

                He's very lucky. At least his equivalent at Collingwood in Leigh Brown actually brings something to the table, even if he was quiet yesterday. Koschitzke never looked like it.

                    Hayes for mine, his clearances yesterday were amazing. Goddard was also good, but more in the 2nd half than all day. Thanks for the $100 Lenny!

                        My fingers are crossed that Ward develops into something remotely similar to Lenny.
                        Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                            Will be a step quicker and have a bigger kick IMO
                            If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

                                So he'll kick a goal 55 meters out rather than 53 in the last quarter of a grand final?

                                    Ward's kicking this season was hampered by his groin and hip issues, otherwise he is a beautiful kick and no doubt could goal from outside 50 at his best.

                                        Was at the game and to half time i thought Swan was the most influential. Fisher was probably the Saints best at that stage.

                                        After half time and Goddard was superb in the third but Hayes was a constant and the driving force in the last quarter.

                                        Thomas was very good but made about 3 critical errors in the second half. His blazing shot that he missed followed by the give off to Blair when he was clearly in position to just kick the goal. He did keep going though. I also thought Kosi was a significant contributor in the second half. Heath Shaw provided some critical plays for the Pies.

                                        My votes

                                        3 Hayes
                                        2 Goddard
                                        1 Thomas.

                                        I attended with a Collingwood supporter and we agreed on those as the best.

                                            I'm no expert given my disinterest in the game, I was too busy playing with my new camera. However, Hayes goes alright Great reading in the Hun today about the missed opportunities for the Pies - Cloke and Thomas amongst the culprits...

                                                    Hayes was clearly my Norm Smith straight after the game.

                                                    After watching the replay last night, it was closer than what I thought. Both Goddard or Hayes were worthy, toss of the coin.

                                                    How did Reily from The Australian not even give Goddard one vote?
                                                    Fair point although I noticed he was the only one to have given Sam Fisher a vote who I thought over the four quarters was excellent and dominated the rebounds although his kicking efficiency can let him down. Not sure what it is with Fisher that no one seems to give a damn shutting him down anymore. He had a field day against us in the Prelim. as a lose man in defence.

                                                        Goddard.

                                                        3 big contested marks during the game...2 of them resulting in important goals. The most contested possessions on the ground. Was absolutely everywhere.

                                                        Lenny was fantastic - but many of his kicks (while helpful) were banging it forward to get yards up the ground...I thought Goddard had slightly more overall impact.

                                                            This describes how St.Kilda got back into the game.
