      I wouldn’t go that far, but not his worst game. Gave away a shocking turnover in the first 30 seconds.

          He went at 95 percent DE.

          West 69

          Both great.

            Why do you keep denigrating West as a poor form that VDM has had?

            Edit: West had 16 touches, 3 marks, 2.2, 6 score involvements and three tackles as a small forward…

              West was great.

              I think some have the blinkers on with some players.

                Like constantly referencing West in this thread?

                  Amazes me the leeway some get compared to others so I use him as a purposeful contrast dye.

                    West gets dropped pretty regularly, I agree he doesn’t get enough leeway.

                        That was his most composed game for some time. Really pleased to see him respond, I was really losing confidence in his ability to consistently deliver anywhere near the level required at AFL level. If he can build on this type of performance and have a solid back end to the season, it will definitely help our cause.

                          Close to his best game for us. Some good run off the backline

                              Solid performance, provided dash and played his role well.

                                Good to see VDM in a more natural position for him. Hopefully now we will be allowed to settle into the backline. With more experience there I think his composure and decision making will improve. He's certainly a livewire.
