Clark has arrived. Has the fitness and poise to realize his talent at this level.
Coffield tracking in a similar direction but not quite there yet. Give him another 5 games or so.
Great to see them maturing together.
Hind has taken Lonies spot.
Cannot argue. Unfortunately for Parker, who tries his guts out, in a shortened season we need to replace him. Most likely with Long. Sinclair & Hind have grabbed their opportunity. Battle is very versatile in terms of position & size but is not safe, yet ahead of Marsh easily.
Ross is Sinclair's biggest threat but I do like how Jack has applied himself these two games. Perhaps he really is Captain Jack Sparrow???
The third quarter and the inability to really capitalise on the ruck dominance give Ratts something to work on - which is always giif to bring them back to earth
Now for Long to return to our back 6
Hind was very useful last week, his possessions not reflective of his work but this week the spoils arrived - and 2 clutch goals when we were under pressure to swing the contest
I thought Paton had the makings but he has matured across 20 games into what we see - exceptional
Clark, Coffield, Long and Paton
Hannebery is missed - hopefully the surgery goes well and he is pressing at the business end
Experience, skill and hands under Ryder and Marshall
So, given Long (a certainty) and Ross return who goes out?
Parker looked over awed but apart from that who is unlucky
Thing is with the 3rd quarters, our opposition have consistently come out with their most ferocious best - tonight Sydney came out a different team with a point to prove like Port last week - it was frenetic but we kept on them and made it ugly and hard for them however deep they dug - we wore them out and still found ways out and smacked them, where it hurts in the last quarters. Both time’s I was impressed by how we maintained pressure and seceded very little

I thought Parker did ok too
That mix up with him trying to do the team thing when his instinct would have been to blaze away and. If, confident, snap a beauty
Paton outstanding. Geary great forward. Hind best game for the club. Clark and Coff are just awesome. Battle nice game. Sincs was good. King. Wow. He's going to put smiles on our faces for years to come. Our backline ok without being great but again kept opp to a low score. Jones is so much fun to watch. Steele is our next Captain. Marshall and Ryder nice job lads. Oh yeah that Butler guy goes ok also.

Great win. Still disappointed with Hill - 15 possessions for $800k but I guess it was one of his better games for us. Put his body on the line a couple of times so improvement from last couple of weeks.
With the next 2-3 games, wouldnt be surprised to see some players rested.
Could be the last time we see Parker & Marsh IMO - they arent up to it.
Loving Sinclair's Mo, he's been good the last 2 weeks.

oops forgot Savage, Long for Savage. Kent for Parker.
Thought Savage was very good tonight. He is still a better player than Long IMO and a different type of player.
He's certainly different. Both are hard at it, no question on courage. Both can tackle. I believe Long will hurt more in tackling, pace, vision, marking and disposal efficiency.

Parker continues to be lost out there.
Out for Long next game?
Most likely
Parker has also been inaccurate.

Marsh?
Jono Marsh
Marsh has been swamped by so many forwards wanting a game.
