Shane Biggs
Shane had another solid performance on the weekend, his rebounding off half back has been impressive as has his ball use. He creates a lot of opportunities for our forwards with his rebound.
Tom Campbell
Tom played mostly in the forward/ruck role, did well with the hit outs, had a lot of competition with Dawson Simpson so it was a good result from Tom. He kicked a nice goal after a strong mark.
Zaine Cordy
We were really impressed with how Zaine went about his work, playing as a defender. He got quite a bit of the ball and repelled a lot of attack. He positioned well and really read the play exceptionally.
Caleb Daniel
Caleb generally played as a forward this week and got a lot of the ball, and as usual tried to use it really well. It was great to see him doing well.
Sam Darley
It was Sam’s first game back after an injury. He played off half-back, had a high-20 possession game and just rebounded really well for us. He’s offensive side of his game was really impressive so it was a great return from Sam.
Jarrad Grant
Jarrad kicked four goals and played a variety of positions. He’s going really well at the moment, he’s putting on some really good pressure, in and around the ball and that’s what we’re after with Jarrad, using his speed for offence and defence. It was just a strong performance from Jarrad.
Declan Hamilton
Declan had a really good game, 22 possessions. He kicked a nice goal crumbing off the pack. He played a variety of roles and really good to see him up and about and playing some good footy.
Joel Hamling
Joel was a real pillar in defence as a key defender. He repelled attacks all day and was really impressive with how he went about his work. He was one of the best players on the day.
Jack Macrae
Jack had a really strong performance. He had a lot of possession and worked hard when he didn’t have the ball, and they’re the things that we want to continue to see from Jack, it was a solid performance.
Toby McLean
Toby kicked a goal, he’s still showing AFL traits. He’s working hard on his game and will continue to do so. He plays a variety of roles which we’re really impressed with and he has a real thirst to tackle, and that’s what we saw with his six or seven tackles on the weekend.
Daniel Pearce
Bit of a change up for Daniel this week, he played as an inside mid. He drove hard at the ball and was pretty good around the stoppages, gave us some really good supply out of the stoppage, it was a really solid game from Daniel.
Josh Prudden
Josh played across half-back, he was a real general down there. Some great spoils, run from behind, and ball use was exceptional. He’s a good character Josh and it’s great to see him back playing some really good footy.
Jack Redpath
Jack kicked a couple of goals. It was probably a quieter game for Jack but it was good to see him bounce back in the last quarter and put a lot of forward pressure on and that’s what we’re after from Jack.
Roarke Smith
Roarke played across half-back, got in some really good positions. He rebounded well and used the ball well and that’s one of Roarke’s focus areas. It was really good to see him get quite a bit of the ball and provide a lot of run across half-back.
