About the only thing worth smiling about in this match is Dan's improvement as a defender.

Shining light. Loving him down back. His defensive work has stood out too.

Our best today. Not only was he our best attacking option from the backline he's also very good defensively. This is the rioli of 2016 and 2017 I remember.

We've got our Houli replacement.
Yes and no.
Houli was very good at the intercept mark And creating that extra man in defence.
Rioli seems better as mopping up and running it out, which is what short is meant to do.
keep Rioli and move short to the forward line and move Aarts to VFL

One of his best all round games in yellow and black.
Looked like a footballer, not a fox terroir

Played well today .
Was opposed to a chump in Dahlhaus and had him covered all day.
Was the only Hackman who ran through the lines and tried to break up play.

Was my best. Getting better each week. 7 tackles and a goal assist. Good to see. Hope he can keep improving.

Haven't posted for a while but had to add how impressed I am with Dan's last two games. Looks a million dollars back there.

He can actually kick too.

Agree. Its revitalised him. I think moving away from the "run and chase" gameplan works for him. Enables him to use his skin and run with the ball in a much more productive way.
