Thought was one of our best again
Lots of mistakes, fumbles and dropped marks amongst some good stuff. You can see it from a mile away. He is a midfielder and potentially a good one - no other position for him

I thought he was very ordinary tonight.
Fumbling and missing targets by hand, it was hard to watch.

I outright love this guy. He cares. He is tough. He gets umpired like he’s still in prison. Yeh he makes a blue but geez he tries hard to rectify mistakes. Football as life. A real life hero.

Apparently got reported tonight, for striking Starcevich according to AFL match report.

Anyone seen it?

Fine at worst. But he's got to be a bit more clever when he does that. You could see 10m out he was intending to deck Starcevich. I even had time to say "Boys, watch this" to the kids so they could see the hit as well.

Umpire also had his whistle in his mouth before contact.

Needs to stop trying to baulk & dance his way out of traffic all the time - continually puts himself under too much pressure & can’t dispose of the ball properly as a result. Has no clue handballing & needs to adopt Dan Jackson instruction to kick long all the time - nothing under 30 metres. Otherwise he’s the turnover king.

The intent when he ran at starcevich was almost my highlight of the game.

I also enjoyed Danihers constant unrealistic marking attempts that were apparently all fine by the adjudicators

Reported for a careless high arm. Ok, fine him then. But will they fine the guy who did it to him not 10 seconds earlier? Of course they won't, it won't even get mentioned.

His handballs can be problematic, I think partly because he tries to take on tacklers too often. Needs to feed it out quicker or, preferably, kick it earlier. But he certainly wasn't alone, plenty of bad handballs and passes tonight, we need to clean this up.

Still loving the way he goes after the ball and his opponents.

It was a swinging arm with his bicep hitting his head. Could go either way
Either way, not fussed.
He needs to tidy up his game.
It looked WAFL quality last night.
The umpires NOT paying him a high free kick resulted him in getting reported.

Why is he being played in the backline or in the ruck?
Hes a winger or midfielder and should be played there
