Most of his touches were just taking it out of the ruck and scrapping it forward. He played well but not sure those touches actually helped the saints.Marshall apparently broke the record for contested touches. Not sure how many easy touches off half back he got.
Meek was great. The strong marks, body work and tackles were a real feature.
Seems to be a theme this season with both ruckmen ranking as the top players on the ground.
And Syd very well could be the team to beat this yearThat Sydney game now looking like an outlier - the only game this season where a side has really got massive run on and destroyed us.
Moorey so good when it mattered.
Ginni and Wiz were so close to having HUGE games - little more polish needed.
Dear is gonna be great
Meek and Marshall was amazing to watch. Meek started so strong but Marshall really got him in the second half. Still really happy with Meek today and over the last month.
Impey very confident and it makes a difference
Frosty playing career-best footy
Scrimshaw was playing so well they had to try and engineer a way to get him out of the way
Thought CMac was good today except for calling for the handball receive and ******* up the goal
How good is it to see us get some wins like the last two weeks with a young side and no key position players (ok ok Scrim and Frost have been incredible - but we weren't calling them key defenders at the start of the season!
I’d add the Gold Coast game to the Sydney one, but the gap between our best and worst is definitely shrinking.That Sydney game now looking like an outlier - the only game this season where a side has really got massive run on and destroyed us.

Liked Mackenzies class at half back tooAreas for improvement, and despite this we still deservedly won.
No goals and only 4 marks from our KPF in Dear and Gunston.
Day worked his way into the game, with 13 touches in the second half. But he had a quiet first half.
Worpel only had 14 touches for the game (5 in the second half). He couldn't get near it.
Nash only had 15 touches, though his impact far outweighed that number IMO (winning hard balls, strong tackles, etc). He can improve on those numbers though.
Newcombe and Day really stood up in the last quarter.
Scrimshaw and Meek were both superb all game.
Most of his touches were just taking it out of the ruck and scrapping it forward. He played well but not sure those touches actually helped the saints.
Liked Mackenzies class at half back too
Frosty had a couple of misses today. He sees the free man then by the time it gets to his boot either the guy isn’t free or he’s kicked it to wrong side of him. Just stick to hand balling and the rest has been good.You f’ing beauty!!!!
Two in a row, nothing like winning to help development and belief.
Meek, just wow!
Frost had only one ‘frost’ today, but what a year.
I love Srimma! Every week!
They won every stat. That's a serious win considering we kicked 2 goals in the 2nd half and none in the last.
We've got about 4 blokes to come back that will fix the structural issues.
The Ginni miss would have iced the game. But we managed the last 3 mins better than they did. That was the game.
That's best game you'll ever see from a ruckman, in Marshall, yet Meek still had 47 hitouts. He seriously stood up.
Also Gunner is fried. We need Chol back asap.
And Syd very well could be the team to beat this year
Cant go at DE, but with 6 mins to go was back to 2022-2023 frosty level. He has had an epic year. Rarely beaten 1/1, only a couple of TOs and would be top 6 in the B&F so farFrosty had a couple of misses today. He sees the free man then by the time it gets to his boot either the guy isn’t free or he’s kicked it to wrong side of him. Just stick to hand balling and the rest has been good.
He had the most on the day maybe but he was about 10 off the record.Marshall apparently broke the record for contested touches. Not sure how many easy touches off half back he got.
