    I think Parker might have something to say about that. Luke was great right from the start

      Well done boys, well done.

      It was ugly, it was tense, but a win was all we had to get tonight.

      Blakey absolutely terrific, Heeney best game for a long while, Fox magnificent, Warner fantastic. Lots of good effort.

      Carlton wasted a lot of chances, but I thought our defensive efforts when undermanned and undersized were terrific overall.

      Cheer cheer - will need an awful lot to go right for us from here this season, but at least we've given ourselves a chance.

        Parker has been terrific the last month as well - really standing up when we have needed him to do.

          Good even spread, no passengers

            Didn't see Warner winning the medal, well done Chad.

              His stats were very good and he broke the game open when we needed him to. Great to have several standouts tonight.

                What a terrific win; great even spread, but an exceptional game from Nick Blakey. The Pelican gave the back line more heft, too.

                  Loved the use of Heeney tonight. Started forward but spent lots of time in the midfield with the majority opposed to Cripps. Added some real toughness in there that’s been missing in recent weeks.

                    What a nice way to start the weekend. Just a few shout outs:

                    I really liked JMac's game tonight. His energy didn't drop. Thought he was in everything.

                    Blakey was huge, especially in the last quarter. Great hands and dash.

                    Hayden presented well. Took some nice clunks.

                    Heeney was great on Cripps and I like him involved in the middle.

                        Warner was obviously good, but I would've given the medal to Blakey. Parker as others have said led by example. Fox, McInerney, Campbell, Gulden, Cunningham and Florent all used the ball well. And I quite liked the fact that McLean was the best KPF on the ground. Hickey was very useful as well.

                          I never thought Blakey would come on defensively as he has. His run has always been electric - but his defensive efforts, marking and positioning has come on so much.

                          The guy has all the tools to be a superstar.

                          Fabulous to see some of the lesser names stand up tonight. Pelican was very solid, Wicks brought great intensity, Maclean was very solid. We need the bottom end players playing well while we have so many injuries - didn't feel like there were many passengers tonight!

                          How good the song with the champs in it!!!!

                            Forgot to mention Heeney, who did well when he went into the midfield. Melican was useful also.

                              Has anybody got a full list of past players who were on the ground before the game? I recognised a few, but not all

                                What a great touch having the First Nations legends in the song. Love this club!
