For once, we were hitting forward targets, and wasn't it good to see??? 
Even when Tarrant was running rampant, I thought we handled it pretty well - In the past we might have freaked out and just panicked, leaving the door ajar for Collingwood. Some of my thoughts:
<ul>
<li>Adam Schneider definitely has class. I love his confidence and aggression.
<li>Nick Davis was quiet, but to be fair, delivery to him was IMHO sub-standard, and held his nerve to slot through the final goal.
<li>I thought Barry Hall played a very smart game. Wandering to CHF to get the ball when he needed to.
<li>Mark Powell wasn't on for much, but took a great mark, I like the look of him.
<li>Fantastic games from Leo Barry and Ben Mathews IMO, very solid despite the odd scary moment!!
<li>Adam Goodes. Does anyone remember me saying pre-season that if he ever gets consistency into his game, he will be a superstar? Be very afraid.
<li>The break in play when the Collingwood player was taken off hurt us (very similar to the way we really put in after CBolt was stretchered off last week).
<li>Poor Saddo - Had 3 great quarters.
<li>Ball - so very, VERY important. Great skills for a big man.</ul>
Great effort tonight. We'll be severely tested next week. I reckon we're right on a knife's edge at the moment - One key injury and we'll struggle to cover the depth. Here's hoping.
