Pros

- Hendo for me really had a crack, got beaten on a couple of occassion only, i was a massive critic of this bloke but i must say he has been pretty solid and last night was a good game by him

- Simpson, kept coming all night, tireless running.... puts in all the time

- Yarrans run out of defence is deadly.... i love this bloke

- We didnt pack it up and get slapped, we changed somethings and dealt with the press, in years gone by that would have been a 70 pt plus loss

- we were most likely gonna be 5th anyway, so not much harm done ladder wise

Cons

- First half we were fumbling bad, and blokes that are generally clean by hand and foot, ( Murphy and Scotland ) made bad mistakes very unlike them

- Goal kicking.... Betts, Gartlett easy misses in the first half... and Gibbs two misses in the second half killed us.... that one running into 50 on his own directly in front was an absolute shocker. Could have pinched the game

- Warnock, just not strong enough, he should have destroyed that game

just watched jacobs go around for crows ..............sigh!!
taps to advantage, one-grab marks, kicks beautifully and handballs well - and is strong and moves well.
always thought we should have kept him and let warnock go but reckon the MC would have been too embarrased to admit they made a mistake going after him

- Killed in the clearances 1st half

Cons:
- Henderson's first half. Outbodied too many times (by a non-body player) and was lost / slow to regain contact as a key defender. Yes when he gets it he looks nice and is a nice pass out of defence but I don't think he's good enough at the primary job
- Betts & Gibbs misses. Gotta get the money shots down-pat!
- Sheer panic in the forward line in the first half. Garlett has been in a mad panic most of the year but they didnt think their way through things, and gave away many goals. If we'd have converted only say 2 or 3 of those horrific options, the inevitable comeback would have been easier.

Pros:
- Walker's third quarter on-ball as a creative mid. Was a real spark - what a season this guy is having
- Betts movement around half-forward and wing. He didn't stop leading all night
- AJ's game was good and also ran hard to provide options, something he needs to do to keep in the team
- Duigan, made some mistakes but got to love the work ethic and team first priorities.
- Simpson - love this man. What a leader.
- Jamison - great to see him back and well done on kicking your first goal in AFL football.
- Laidler

Warnock lacks mongrel/aggression as a ruckman. Needs to find this element, otherwise will be pushed aside too often and will keep costing us games. Hampson is more of a crash and bash ruckman and is ahead in this area.

AW, Simmo, Jamo (considering 1st game back), and Kreuz played good games and we came back without much of the Judd influence were the only positives for me.

Quietest game from C Judd in the Navy Blue for a long time. His colours were lowered by that pig Lewis.

Pros
- Result didn't matter as we will finish 5th anyway
- no injuries and a successful return from Jamo
- sounds like Curnow and Russell played well for the Bullants and would be in line for a recall.

Cons
- Hawks pressure rattled us in the 1st half
- our lack of a quality tall forward
