Did anyone else see Josh Bruce and Matt Suckling at the game yesterday?

There for Adz?

Nice to see Dunks babysitting in the crowd too.

We may only need to win two finals for the flag, unlike 2016.

Make that three finals.

Bevo appreciating Tim's game? Curious as I'd have thought Gawn was closer to votes than English

I don't think Gawn influenced the game at all

I don't think Gawn influenced the game at all

I thought he had an enormous influence. One of their few influential players. I actually thought Tim did well by the way. But Max had a massive inlfuence. If he didn't play they probably lose by 100+.

Gawn's stats (Tim in brackets)

23 touches (16)
11 contested possesions (7)
9 marks (8)
2 contested marks (3)
2 tackles (1)
44 hit outs (28)
2 clearances (2)
1 goal (1)
4 score involvements (6)
4 intercept possesions (3)
89% game time (84%)

By the way. Gawn was the highest rated player on the ground in AFL Fantasty and he was the third highest rated player for Supercoach (only Bont and Treloar were rated higher).

And before anyone asks
HTA 15 (8)
Intercept Marks 3 (3)

I generally look at those as well when judging rucks and figured HTA would likely come up if Tim did well there.

To the eye Gawn was a big part of why they were even close. Tim had some counter punch moments but I thought Gawn was still the best ruck on the ground

Well he did but not substantially so and he was also a bit underdone.

Looks very close to break even looking at those stats which isn't a bad thing.

Although he did rack up numbers, I didn't feel watching him he influenced the game much - after all a 51 point drubbing shows he could do little to change the game.
