True. But, despite all the possessions he's been getting, Martin hasn't been as damaging so far as he often is. But Lyon will definitely need to tighten that up in the second half.

Some players in the side are technically poor kicks

Windhager
Owens
Higgins
Byrnes
Cordy

Windhager is capable of kicking really well and accurately, but he's not going great tonight. The other four I agree with entirely.

Martin has turned it over 5 times. One of them resulting in a goal. trust me I’m his biggest critic as I had him in SuperCoach and he’s not damaging at all. Half of those disposals are kick outs and cheap kicks in the back half.

Great, as per usual. But you'll never get any argument from me about him.

Funny how fickle we all are as supporters. Bonner kills it in preseason games… get him in!!! Plays a few stinkers in the regular season and he must be drawn and quartered!!!

Windy needs handball outlets when he gets it in tight.

I was never that excited about him. Were it not for Webster's suspension, Bonner would be running around at Sandy.

Pou getting a bit more involved is all I can think of.
Gresham not killing us is a positive :D

It’s like we’re purposely trying not to score goals. Marshall embarrassing.

Higgins the only one who can kick a goal today. I freaking hate the Dons. If we lose I will be so f****** angry.

Caminiti still plays like a headless chook, I was hoping this would improve over the summer
