Craig Bolton

[nomae]

I thought he was bloody brilliant today. Its easy to think that he only played well after the first quarter, but Brown had to do magnificently well to get his three goals in the first term.

Craig must've been close to best on ground.

Anyone else agree??

[NMWBloods]

I thought he was fantastic, even in the first quarter when Brown kicked his three goals. There was nothing Bolton could have done to stop a couple of those goals and was able to spoil quite a number of other marking attempts by Brown. Bolton is one of the best spoilers in the competition.

Super game - no one could have done better in that 1st qr - Brown kicked 3 & could have kicked 6 on a lesser player (the Hall v Brown shoot-out in Q1 was just fantastic!).

Thereafter, used his spring & athleticism brilliantly vs one of the 2 best forwars in the game (& was given a little leeway by the umps too). Another cracking start to the season by the other Bolton.

Craig Bolton is an absolute gun and would be one of this club's greatest pick ups!

100% on the money. Brown had 6 in him today given the delivery and Craig kept him to 3. He's looming as another All-Aus in 2007.

I don't think you will find anyone that is going to disagree, nomae.

After watching B2 (should he be B1 now?) on Richo last week, I felt confident (hoped ) he could do it again.
Awesome game Craig.

[Jeffers1984]

Just awesome. Simply awesome.

Will have another big task on Bock this week.

[Dave]

Great game. He always seems to lift against his old side.

[Carolyn]

Got a lot of fist on the ball when Brown looked like he was going to mark it. Thought he had a fantastic game.

[eggbeater]

not doing my supercoach team any harm either

[BeeEmmAre]

Best on ground for me.
However, I thought Brown was in control in the first quarter and that mark he took at the top of the goal square had me commenting that CBolts wasn't going to be strong enough to go with him.
Ha.
Brown had three more possessions for the rest of the day.

[Bloody Hell]

Probably my favourite swannies player...hard to find anything bad to say about him week in, week out. Taking Leo's mantle as player playing above his weight every week, wonder what people would be saying about him if Leo hadn't set a precident.

Where's our gorilla to take the big lads every week? Ben Rutten, Brian Harris, Darren Glass???? It's been quite some time since Dunkley retired.

[Zlatorog]

Nothing to add. Top marks!

Yes he did a good job although he had a lot of help though after quarter time. We had either the eski or leo dropping in front of the brown leads for most of the last 3 quarters as well. The lions did the same to Hall.

He's alright
