*Jude Bolton and Nic Fosdike finally have the self belief that they are league footballers and are going out there with authority and confidence. Took a while for them to come out of the shadow of Kelly and Schwass but now with all of the old guard retired they are leading the charge.
Bolton's goal right on 3/4 time was particularally pleasing.
*Jared Crouch was simply irresistible. If he and Kirk can keep it up, we will be in business.
*Ryan O'Keefe again was a bit of an unsung hero. Like always, just went along minding his own business and doing his stuff quietly. Love his strong hands and his booming left foot which always seems to know where the goals are. His two majors were so terribly important, especially the first one. We need R'OK firing if we are to be a threat.
*Clint Bolton and Heath James were outstanding in defence. Didn't do anything flash which is exactly how you like it. Both picked up a ton of touches and keep their opponents pretty quiet. Longmuir threatened on CB early but after that little burst he went MIA.
*Just one touch in the game to LRT and for mind, he is still a bit of a concern. We need solid backup in the talls brigade and he has to stand tall.
With Brisbane out of the way, we have a pretty good draw and could or should be 6-1 heading to Subi to play the Eagles. The key is the Kangaroos match in Canberra which always seems to stump us.
We have to get early wins on the board and we have St Kilda, Port, Colingwood and Adelaide in the space of five weeks between Rounds 11-15.
