Awesome mark.

Is it just me, or did he play one of his best games tonight?

Yes, and Rooey's going back one was pretty nice too 8-)

Had a bit of the spectacle about it I thought, lots of ooh ah moments.

He was our best in my opinion. Was superb down back. Stopped some very dangerous fwd moves by the opposition and initiated numerous for us. was aggressive at the man WITH the ball. Executed a perfect pass in the last 1/4 which resulted in a goal. Great game Zac!

Had a rare poise tonight I thought, as did Raph.

A goal assist, a goal to Raph, two to Kosi... I hereby anoint this "Scapegoats Round" :mrgreen:

Zac is always a better player when he goes for the ball. That is precisely the point that Robert Walls has been making. Trying to body opponents is just not going to work for him, at least at this stage of his development. But as we saw, his leap is very good, so why not fly for more? To be fair, it's a lot easier to fly on the wing than in the back square, but had Bob Murray not gone for the mark in '66 (and taken it), Barry Breen's point would probably have been meaningless.

Great game!
One beautiful pass into the 50 made me think it was #26 who had kicked it…

Like others, I initially gave credit to Dal for Zac's "bullet pass" in the last quarter. I didn't think that Zac could possibly execute like that. Well done Zac, he played well all night..

Played very well. He does have a good kick. Quite penetrating. That was a great pass.

Are you sure it was really him.
I keep reading on here that his disposal is shyte so he surely wouldn't be able to execute a pass like that, would he?

What i've noticed, is the forward of centre, Zac is a very good kick. He doesn't get it there very often though.

Haven't been a fan of Raph or Dawson recently, but both had decent games last night.
If Zac went for the ball as much as he goes for the man he'd be a much better player.

Dissapointed with BJ's fly though, we've come to expect much better!

dawson very good last night.
raph tried hard and did well - needs to put some decent games together but has earned his spot for another week.
