    Re: WB Game Day V Gold Coast Suns R18 2021

    Crazy!!! Had more endeavour than pretty much all of the 22 great signs indeed.

    The whole team handballs over their head, he may have overdone it once but generally very effective with it.

    Garcia is a genuine chance of making best 22 at the end of year.

          No doubt he is going to make it, but those handballs over his head were just plain dumb

            The Suns have been in good form and they cracked in all night. We were virtually two players down with Dunkley and Astro completely out of sorts coming back from long term injury and concussion respectively. But we won. I'll take it.

            There were some bad signs down back. We were frequently outnumbered around the ball and, apart from Keath, looked very vulnerable in the air. Bailey Dale was very good and I was happy with Richards.

            JUH was very good and I am so pleased for him. He's only a kid and the pressure that the media put on these kids, by manufacturing a "story" when none exists is reprehensible.

            The sooner we get Stef Martin back the better. English had a real opportunity to dominate today and missed it. Too often he got his hand on the ball first but failed to hit to advantage. He did show that he can kick a goal when needed.

            We were blessed to have Jacko particularly in the last five minutes. He was so calm and concise with the ball.

            It so often said that good sides win when playing poorly. That was us for mine. A win is a win is a win.

              Not being mentioned much was Macrae's game. Didn't get the 40 touches but effective kicks and 2 goals. Prefer that type of game from him TBH.

                Bont’s game was pretty crazy, he looked a little sore in the shoulder, early on he seemed just a fraction off the pace. To still have the influence and volume of work he had, just incredible.

                Macrae’s two goals were very good. Great to see him bob up and have that direct, scoreboard influence.

                  Bontempelli, also 15 clangers. Not to say he wasn’t our BOG (although probably Macrae for mine) and at times exceptional, but he’ll need to clean that up before finals

                    Bontempelli Bailey Smith and Macrae with 100 possessions between them was the difference. The forward line was again patchy with Jamarra showing class and excitement. Using Bruce as the second string ruck man is a concern with Young being the preferred option. We are a better team with Liberatore in the midfield. I agree that Richards is a good inclusion to our defence whilst Duryea continues to play well.

                      The delivery to the forwards was appalling for the most part.

                        While we were done in contested marks and uncontested marks, we tightened up the uncontested possession differential this week and it just made it harder for them to get clean ball into their forward line and score.
                        TF is this?.........Obviously you're not a golfer.

                          Martin is a massive out. We need him, Libba and Treloar fit and firing.

                              I’m just about convinced now that the AFL have given a direction to the umpires to help the Gold Coast Suns. Jesus Christ have they been looked after tonight.
