may still have a future at our club if his body holds up
Wasn't a big stat gatherer today, but he was very damaging and influential when he got it.

Brodie Kemp has arrived. Definitely a best/starting 18/22 and we better re-sign him.

Best game i have seen a while from Cripps.
He led like a true captain should. Very encouraging performance

Needed that.
Played differently - more run and carry, shorter kicking and quicker.
Players played a more unselfish brand and bought others into the game.
Martin a big difference forward and Cunningham motors thru the middle. Need them both to stay fit.

Aw my big kid just said to me, “I’d still be happy even if they didn’t win mum, as long as they tried their best!” Not jaded yet, bless his heart.

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Fooooog. Kempy homygod watta gun

Hopefully this means the midfield is actually back.

 

[Mondyboy]

Kemp took 9 marks, most if not all intercept. Was just fantastic all game. Yes he’ll often be undersized, but he reads the ball so well off the boot. I’d rather his skills and awareness than Young’s height.

Best game by TDK all year - maybe all time. Can we keep him?

CARNA BLUES !!!

 

[Dramoth]

cunners played the game out

That's what I liked... and he was good today Added that much needed bit of speed around the ground.

Also good to see that he hasn't lost any pace after his ACL.

 

[Accidental genius]

10 goal win is very impressive against suns who have been quite good so far this season. I was worried about their hard running type players but seems we were dominant all the way through.

 

[Bringbackeddie]

Long road back to credibility, but at least it’s a step in the right direction for now.

 

[Wickzki]

Sounds like I missed one of our best games for the season. Great to see another >100 score.

I’m guessing cunners and fog were good inclusions and the forwards in general had a great day out.

Wings and half forward had way more run and creativity than we've had most of the year. Really enables us to take the game on differently and play the way Vossy wants them to

 

[berisha]

Where are all the Crippa haters??? Same energy please!!!! Up the baggers

Cripps was good today but you can't deny his previous 6ish weeks haven't warranted criticism.

Looked zippy. The kind of player we are dying for

 

[Dramoth]

Cunners show why he is so important to this team. His side step out of the contest was sublime. Loved Kemp's game - offer him 3 - 4 years. Not a VFL player.

Loved the mids, they hunted Rowell and Anderson all game. Docherty on the wing was inspired as well

That sidestep from Dow in the last to take him just out of reach of the Suns player, and then kicking it forward with intent.

 

[Mondyboy]

Wings and half forward had way more run and creativity than we've had most of the year. Really enables us to take the game on differently and play the way Vossy wants them to

Our half backs also took the game on. Which helps.

We just looked quicker all round. And we didn’t let them traipse the ball out of the forward line.

Weiters plays so much better when Young isn't on the ground!!! First time in ages I seen mongrel in our players wtf where was this the last couple of weeks?

 

[sosos]

G is Good.

Yeah you'd think Dow will keep Hewett in the 2s. We look so much better with more diversity in our midfield mix.

 

[The Toad]

My highlight from the game was Cripps’s handball on his back to a player running past. (can’t remember who it was) Sublime.

 

[SOSforPM]

Good to see the team working as a unit. Plenty of unselfish goals, blocks and team coverage…Best of all goals from the midfield!!!

Hope we keep Tom and Kemp into the midfield next year.

Crippa with a subtle screw you to people like McClure who think there is in fighting at the club. Love it.

What he say?

Nice to be back in the winners circle

You don't need to sack the president, coach/assistants, have 15 list changes, etc, to get a change of mindset

While scoring from centre bounces isn't sustainable, nice to strip it back to basics and play to our strengths, especially against a noted contested team

Cerra was huge, especially early, where he kept us in the game.

Cripps finished well, but he too looked to dish rather than taking players on

Kennedy got better as the game went on, vital to our setups

Walsh much better, just a little selfish late

Kemp, exactly what I want to see, ensure your man doesn't get the pill before looking at an intercept. Rather he has 10 spoils than 10 marks

The whole backline played well, even in the first qtr

Fog played his role, Martin dangerous, Cuners drifted, but the class is still there, just need to keep him in the game

Dow, thought he was very good when he came on. Looked to provide an option/release for teammates, paused to look for the best option when disposing

Pitto adjusted well and TDK was relentless but some maturity finally kicking in, rather than trying to take mark of the year

As a whole, this was a clear change of player intent, hunted in numbers, and largely selfless in providing team acts

 

[Bostonian]

I said we'd win in the preview thread.

People laughed at me.

Now who's laughing!

Was a damn nice day in the sun for footy too.
