2017 NAB Cup:
2017 Season
1 | Haw | Imposing at stages in attack with Gibson his opponent. Finished with three goals, but could have kicked five or six. | 7 |
2 | Bris | Had two goals by early second term before shifted to defence. Returned to attack in second half and added a third to his tally. | 6 |
3 | Carl | Heavy rain doesn’t help tall forwards and Rowe had his measure. Only goal came in the first term. | 4 |
4 | Adel | Two goals from four attempts, played more as a lead up role in the Bombers in the Bombers attack. | 5 |
5 | Coll | Threatened to break the game open in the first term and eventually did so. Thumping game rotating forward to ruck. | 9 |
6 | Melb | Could have kicked the Dees out of the game in first half – booted six behinds. Finally got a goal in third term and marked well. | 5 |
7 | Frem | Strong game with 20 possessions and ruckwork. But his three goals straight was the best sign. | 8 |
8 | Geel | Huge game highlighted by five brilliant goals, including the sealer in the final term. Key player in the victory. | 8 |
9 | WCE | Broke the game open early with four goals. Ended with five – four where from general play. | 8 |
10 | Rich | Roamed up forward and had stints in the ruck. Three goals all came in first half then party went dry. Dry parties are no good. | 6 |
11 | GWS | Wasted the ball a bit by foot, but got on his bike to get involved higher up the ground. Fair. | 5 |
12 | Port | Three first-half goals, then added one in the final term. Played unusual role as foil to red-hot Hooker. | 7 |
13 | Bye. | ||
14 | Syd | Booted a Buddy-esque goal in first term and had a ‘nearly night’. Took huge mark late. | 5 |
15 | Bris | Looked like tearing the game apart early, but Andrews managed to rein him in to reasonable levels. | 5 |
16 | Coll | Ended with three goals in what was a pretty good battle with Goldsack. Did his bit and moved well from the forward half. | 6 |
17 | StK | On Carlisle and took mark of night , but his opponent kept at him. Four goals was a good night. | 6 |
18 | NM | Denied a couple of marks by team-mates during the first quarter. Quiet after that. Two goals including one in junk time. | 5 |
19 | WB | A one-man band in attack. Booted six goals, but also kicked four behinds. A dominant force. | 9 |
20 | Carl | Had a heavyweight battle with Jones. Two early goals and another in final term helped team over the line. Spent time in ruck. | 6 |
21 | Adel | Dangerous on Talia with three goals in first half, but couldn’t improve tally after that. | 5 |
22 | GCS | Quiet night opposed to May, booting just the one goal. Afforded little space to launch at the footy. | 2 |
23 | Frem | Booted two and missed a few others, but spent too much effort on trying to draw frees. | 5 |
EF | Syd | Took a screamer and kicked a goal to start game and that was only real highlight of the day. Ended with three majors. | 6 |
2016 Season
1 | GCS | Fascinating battle with May, can't question work rate. | 5 |
2 | Melb | Grabbed 15 marks and was menacing up forward. Only downside inaccurate kicking. | 8 |
3 | Port | Bombers’ best forward with two goals and burnt Trengove for pace several times. | 6 |
4 | Geel | Well beaten by Lonergan. One mark – his lowest tally since none in Round 5 last year. | 1 |
5 | Coll | Hardly sighted in the first half in what was a day to forget for the key forward. | 3 |
6 | Carl | One goal in final term but for the most part Rowe had the better of the match-up. | 4 |
7 | Syd | Comprehensively beaten by Grundy, kicking just the one behind. | 3 |
8 | NM | Struggled up forward but fared slightly better when thrown into the ruck. Two goals. | 5 |
9 | StK | Was the main attacking focus in the first half and did some good things. | 6 |
10 | Rich | Rance was his master but to his credit never gave up. Seven marks, two goals. | 5 |
11 | Frem | Booted two goals in the first half then fell away. | 5 |
12 | Haw | Loomed dangerously in attack. Booted two early goals. | 6 |
13 | GWS | Timing with his marks was off and missed a couple of key sots at goal. Two goals. | 4 |
15 | WCE | Booted three goals and took contested marks. A shining light. | 7 |
16 | StK | Took the mark of the day, but his shit missed. Typified his day. Always threatened. | 6 |
17 | Rich | Dropped a hanger in second term but came into game in a big way with two late goals. | 5 |
18 | Bris | Ended with four goals, but could have had a big bag opposed to Merrett. Bloodied mouth early. | 7 |
19 | Adel | Best Bomber on the night with four goals on the rarely beaten Talia. | 8 |
20 | Geel | Worked hard to present and grabbed eight marks. One long-range goal a beauty. | 6 |
21 | GCS | Higher up ground early to provide marking target. Kicked a ripper goal and contested hard. | 6 |
22 | WB | Some terrific marks and always biggest threat. Kicking for goal a nightmare. | 6 |
23 | Carl | Bagged five in a big key forward performance. Far too good for Rowe. | 8 |
2015 Season
1 | Syd | Started well and still developing. | 3 |
2 | Haw | Kicked three vital goals and even pushed into defence. Another big step forward. | 7 |
3 | Carl | Couple of lucky free kicks early and ended with three goals. Moved well. | 6 |
4 | Coll | Frost was able to quell him. Delivery forward wasn’t ideal and wet didn’t help. | 5 |
5 | StK | Couldn’t get a sniff and subbed out. | 1 |
6 | Frem | Had two shots for one goal. Fairly quiet though. | 4 |
7 | NM | Thompson had the better of him but never stopped competing. | 5 |
8 | Bris | Commanding performance with a career-best six goals. | 8 |
9 | Rich | A couple of goals and pulled down seven grabs from limited opportunities. | 5 |
10 | Geel | Missed some early shots and after that Cats took over. At least kept battling. | 4 |
11 | WCE | No goals and no impact when rucking either. | 4 |
13 | Haw | One goal from limited opportunities but generally struggled against Gibson/Lake. | 3 |
14 | StK | On Fisher at start and couldn’t get a foothold in the game. | 2 |
15 | Melb | Torched McDonald. Matchwinner marked and kicked beautifully. | 9 |
16 | NM | Missed some chances early that would have given momentum. Ended with two. | 4 |
17 | Port | Well-beaten and kicking for goal had mixed results. | 4 |
18 | WB | Tough day at the office with Morris on his wheel. Only goal in final term. | 3 |
19 | GWS | Should have booted a bagful on Corr but ended up with two. Fair. | 6 |
20 | Adel | Hammered by Talia in a great learning experience. Four marks. | 1 |
21 | GCS | Copped a massive hit to the ribs and subbed out. Very quiet beforehand. | 2 |
22 | Rich | Gave his all but found the going tough on Chaplin. Eight marks, no goals. | 4 |
23 | Coll | Left field with concussion early but returned to play a role. Five marks. | 4 |
2014 Season
1 | NM | Movement troubled Thompson early but then hauled in. | 5 |
2 | Haw | Lack of size forced him into clumsy efforts but did a few good things when rucking. | 4 |
3 | Carl | Kept quiet by Jamison early but did some good things when rotating through ruck. | 4 |
4 | Frem | McPharlin had his measure in attack and he struggled with Sandilands size in ruck. | 4 |
5 | StK | Picked up by Gwilt and Bruce. Couldn’t get a grip on the game at all. | 2 |
6 | Coll | Early goal but then unable to stamp anything on the contest opposed to Keeffe. | 3 |
7 | WB | More promising signs. Just needs to stay involved in the game. | 5 |
8 | Bris | One clever half volley goal but otherwise quiet. | 3 |
9 | Syd | Out-bodied easily but continued to try. Took a few big grabs. | 4 |
11 | Rich | Late inclusion for Hurley and made the most of it. Three goals and had a pep in his step. | 6 |
12 | GWS | Growing in confidence and booted 3.4 including vital goal when GWS threatened. | 6 |
13 | Melb | Got his hands to plenty of marks but either spilled them or was spoilt. One goal. | 4 |
14 | Adel | Not big stats but his first term set up two goals. | 5 |
15 | Geel | Two goals but generally well held by Lonergan in marking contests | 5 |
16 | Port | No goals but led well around the 50 metre arc. | 4 |
17 | Coll | A few good leads on Frost, but not a big factor. | 3 |
18 | Collarbone. | ||
19 | Shoulder. | ||
20 | Rich | Chaplin played him on a break for most of night. Four marks and no goals. | 3 |
21 | WCE | Didn’t have a big impact but kicked a vital goal in third term. | 3 |
22 | GCS | Showcased athleticism at times up forward and in ruck. Two goals proved handy. | 5 |
23 | Carl | Presented well and kicked two fine second-quarter goals. Tired after half time. | 5 |
EF | NM | Caused Firrito headaches and bagged four. This was a breakout night. | 7 |
