lost count of the number of times Mikey was involved in play deep in the backline, and then bobbed up deep in the forward line as an option after a quick transfer of play. His hard end to end running was outstanding, and he still had the skill to kick goals. He is a superstar of the game at the moment no doubt about it. The commentators raved about Eddies 6 goals all day, he barely got out of the 50 and mentioned Walters efforts as an afterthought.
On another topic, how good was Dermots knowledge of the state of the game pre bounce [paraphrasing] "Pav has been Freo's greatest captain, and it will be good to see him leading Freo out onto Subi oval as captain one last time. Here they come now with Mundy leading them out??? Oh Mundy is captain this year. I would have thought he would have let Pav lead them out just to save me from looking like a dopey goose again."
