Hall had an awesome match, finally had the upper hand against Glass. I knew he would step up a level during finals!

Go Bazza!!

[Schneiderman]

As the pre-match commentary said... "He has just been waiting for the finals"

He did really well even though he was sort of injured. He and O'Loughlin were great.

Was a bit disappointing early. Did some good things but did some poor ones too.

Managed to get on top in the second quarter and kicked that superb goal.

Was struggling in the third and I thought he was gone.

Fortunately Glass was injured and slowed up, while Hall had a second win and was great in the last quarter.

Considering his opponent and his injuries, he had a fantastic game.

Hall can be well beaten by the best defenders (Glass, Scarlet). But put him against a lesser defender, or an injured one, and he dominates.

As always, delivery and space means a lot.

[Young Blood]

Great game - the reason we won. Compensated for his two early misses with that goal on half time.

Looked like his injury was a corkie. Seemed like he was really struggling, but I guess he just ran it out. And Glass' injury obviously helped too.

Baz really is a class act. Indifferent form over the last couple of weeks turned into gamebreaking form tonight. Nobody on the ground works harder.

Lots of spilt marks, got outpositioned and outmaneuvered plenty of times, and had a couple of lousy shots at goal.

Hence my complete astonishment when the game summary flashed up on screen, and I realised he'd booted 5 goals. Absolutely the #1 forward in our team, and is vital to our setup even when he (appears) is having a dog of a day.

How good is he going to be with the weeks rest. Expect him to absolutely explode in the Prelim.

Came back well and made Glass's injury really show.

I actually thought Hall's injury helped us - it kept him playing closer to goal which is what we needed from him - possessions on centre wing at Subi are a heck of a long way further away from goal than at the SCG, and we needed him inside 50 as much as possible.

Just got home from the game(oh so happy) he had to put up with a lot of poor delivery again but showed what a valuable player he is for our team, he was brilliant when he got the ball and the Beagles fans hated him.
