4-Ross - accumulated
3-Acres - had a crack
2- Billings - was ok
1-Roberton - not as good as he has been, but still reasonable
Carlisle was good in the first half but poor after that... Steven was typically fine...
Weller, Montagna would be dropped if I were IC
Sinclair was missing, Steele and Koby .... a lot of players were average or worse
Not sure why you and Wellard are at mav. Picked up 22 disposals and most marks working goal line to goal line. Yes his kicking at goal is horrible but 17 pressure acts show he's far from a passenger.
Did you watch the game or just check the stats?
I was at the game. How people on this forum claim he had a bad game is beyond me. His first qtr was ordinary yes, but after that he picked up 21 disposals running goal line to goal line. He also took 8 marks which in isolation means little but again look at his heat map and you'll see how hard he worked. Contrary to many others - from my recollection he also didn't turn it over once.
Watching on TV gives the couch potatoes on this forum about 10% true perspective. It's like the Gilbo and Geary haters - both work so hard to get to every contest yet the couch potatoes see what they see only.
I was there too and didn't see any heat maps. All I know is that Mav is having a very ordinary year.
If you thought Billy won the hitouts you're probably right, but only about 10% were to advantage.
Watching it on telly now. Can't believe you think Mav had a good game. Next thing you'll tell me Dunstan and Sinclair were good.
We win hit outs 40-33, centre clearances 13-12 and stoppages 24-16 and you're all over Longer!
We lost the game because our defence crumbled and turned the ball over far too many times.
Longer, mav and Sinclair will not come up this week for discussion.
Agreed Dunstan will.

Lol you have no clue and I now know I am wasting my time trying to educate the uneducatable.
To single out these 3 players in yesterday's loss I can only assume you are a youngster and I will say no more
