2017 Digest:
2017 NAB Cup: Looks to have gone to another level if his 29 touches vs Eagles and Swans is any guide. Scary how good he could be.
2017 Season
1 | Adel | Big first term with 11 disposals including three inside-50's. | 6 |
2 | GCS | Superb outing with three goals to go with a host of classy possessions running off a wing. Added extra dollars to next contract. | 8 |
3 | NM | The $9m man had an 11-disposal first quarter showcasing his class and finished with a game-high 31. | 8 |
4 | Port | Won the ball well both inside and out, and added some real defensive steel with 10 tackles. Becoming an all-round package. | 8 |
5 | Syd | Hard runner all night and was again a consistent driver of the GWS midfield. | 7 |
6 | WB | Class stood out. Each time he gest the ball in his hands there was a feeling something good was going to happen; 24 disposals. | 8 |
7 | StK | Isn’t struggling under weight of speculation about his future . Used footy well and ran hard to receive it; 28 disposals. | 7 |
8 | Coll | Twinkle Toes cut a swathe through the midfield with 36 disposals (29 on target) and 11 tackles (and a goal). | 9 |
9 | Rich | Continues to lead the way. The only Giant in the first three quarters to win his position. Immense. | 8 |
10 | WCE | A jet. His 29 touches and seven clearances were all class. Kicked a goal too. | 9 |
11 | Ess | Monster game. Continues to get better despite contract speculation. 38 touches, 10 tackles. | 9 |
12 | Carl | Touched more leather than the Hellfire Club. Ended with 29 touches, 10 tackles and six clearances. | 8 |
13 | Hip. | ||
14 | Hip. | ||
15 | Geel | Huge game from a star. Grabbed 33 disposals and was a key to the side coming back in final term. | 8 |
16 | Haw | Glides through traffic, tough as well – got crunched by Roughead got up and ran off straight away. 34 disposals, 10 tackles and a goal | 8 |
17 | Syd | Kicked a boundary line special which showed why he will earn millions, however only went at 41 percent efficiency with his 27 disposals. | 6 |
18 | Rich | Playmaker worked hard to grab 23 possessions, including five inside-50s and ix tackles. Solid effort. | 7 |
19 | Frem | Added a few more dollars to that contract with game sealing goal in the dying moments. Was massive with 12 score involvements. | 8 |
20 | Melb | Squirted forward for two goals in the opening term and ended with three. Smart movement and won ball well. | 8 |
21 | WB | Really quiet first half (six effective disposals) but got going after half time to be an ignition for the team. | 7 |
22 | WCE | His best game of the season. Was everywhere with 43 disposals and made an impact after crunching hit with Kennedy. | 9 |
23 | Geel | Quiet early and apart from second term and fourth term he wasn’t a massive factor; nine inside-50s and 23 possessions. | 6 |
QF | Adel | Won ball with ease in midfield, but execution wasn’t as crisp as we have come to expect. Can hold head up though. | 7 |
SF | WCE | Started well again and continued to find the ball all night in midfield. Can go to another level though. | 7 |
PF | Rich | Looked smooth when he got near the pill for 28 disposals, eight tackles and eight inside-50s. | 8 |
