Mackie played well that game, no doubt, however he had very little to do with you winning in the end.
We were wasteful in front of goal and your midfield, In particular Selwood got on top and won a majority of the clearances. The ball barely went into our forward line in the last quarter.
I would argue FIGJAM barely had a touch. Congrats should be given to Selwood who won the game off his own boot, your forward line who trapped the ball in your forward 50 with Bartel obviously kicking when it counted.
Mackie has 6 years more development in him and has had the luxury of playing a bit part in a dominant backline. My point is that I believe that Shoenmakers will be a more dominant KP defender than will Mackie when playing in the same postion.
You have to admit that the future of your currently great backline is a major concern.
What a self-serving load of cobblers. Did he play well, or did he barely get a touch? I'm pretty sure he stopped Buddy from getting any touches also.
