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.

I thought it was a good game but nothing special. That mark and goal was impressive from him.

Bramble was a genuine winger against Melbourne and I thought we would use him more in the back line given the Dees small forwards.

This is his heat map from the game.

Poulter also racked up his possessions across the wing

Agreed BAD. I thought both rucks had their moments but neither really influenced the game as such.

I wish I paid more attention but from memory Bramble played on the wing just as his form started to turn around, but the last week or two it has been quite evident.

To my untrained eye playing him on the wing gives him more time and isn't under immediate pressure like he would be as a small defender inside our D50.

Interestingly Bailey Williams heatmap is very similar to Bramble and Poulter.
