On reflection Heeney was best on for mine.
Thought Kennedy shaded him but a monster game from Heeney.

I thought Kennedy was BOG, but Heeney was not far off and super impressive given his inexperience. Like Aliir, he handled the finals pressure-cooker atmosphere beautifully.

Jenkins will struggle on shorter grounds with no room to ghost out the back and wave his arms around

That may be so, but once you're out there you're considered 100%. And he does kick a lot out the back so a small ground won't suit.
On the flip side, Cameron didn't take a backward step last night

Couldn't get a kick against West Coast or North either. Would be close to the Crows WOG for the finals series

Yep agreed but his running is his main feature and an ankle injury would effect him. Shouldn't have played if not fully fit
Watched some of the game this morning, Sydney far too good, absolutely no excuses. How bad were our foot skills. Good luck WUB12

Charlie Cameron was fantastic last night, that spoil on Buddy showed real courage.

Only one to produce some spark. M Crouch tried but Cameron was the only one of 22 to offer something to get them going.

I've just read the Paper. Walkers 6/10 is far more baffling. With only Laird in front of him with a 7, Absolutely laughable

Geez Walker was one of the worst on ground. Got most of his kicks when the game was done and dusted and into junk time. Couldn't take a mark and just tried to out body his opponent and looked lazy and disinterested most of the night
Helps with Furg being back and in form straight away with a ton yesterday for Western Grit.
