    I thought McVeigh, Kirk, Mathews, ROK, Malceski, Fosdike, Everitt and C.Bolton had great games whilst J. Bolton, Mickey O, Goodes and Davis were serviceable....
    Strictly not 'on topic', but O'Keefe had 3 possessions in the second half. So while his first half was 'great', his second half was not even serviceable.

    Everitt had 4 possessions for the match, while Cox & Seaby dominated hit outs against our ruckmen.

        He did fade agreed. But I think he was getting a hell of a lot more attention in the 2nd half. And how that mark wasn't paid in the last quarter I'll never know....

            Bit harsh on ROK, he was playing more in the forward 50 than we're used to and in the 3rd quarter especially the ball was spent mostly in our half. Did drop a few marks at the end though.

                I thought O'Keefe was very good in the first half (mainly in the second quarter) and ordinary in the second half. Hard to see how you could categorise him (or any other Swan) as playing a "great" game.

                    You've just destroyed any previous winning argument (which you weren't winning anyhow) with that. McVeigh played a decent game, but also allowed his main opponent amass 38 touches. Can't believe you saw Everitt play a great game as our ruckmen were totally demolished by Cox, and describing JBolton as "serviceable" is just laughable if I didn't think you were actually being serious.

                        Cousins had more than 1 opponent..... McVeigh broke even with him when he was on him. i.e. Got as many touches as Cousins did. Think Ablett was 9 to 1 against and Kirk was similar....

                        As has been pointed out, stats apparently mean little here on RWO. But Everitt did control the ruck pretty well. Wasn't his fault that Jolly was towelled up by Cox when he went fwd.

                        And B1 was serviceable, without being as good as he should be.
