O'Sullivan is underrated for pressure and ability to set up plays. Antonio K was a good link out of the back half in Gooch's absence, but none of this works without skills.
Every season, skills and game sense get slicker, more physical and competitive, while up to now, remaining relatively free of gamesmanship and faking for frees. It's compelling watching, and of course great that Freo are able to raise the bar year on year.
For next week Gooch to slot back in,.
Someone's going to be unlucky:. Sharp is matchfit now, probably stays. I'd like to see Greive out there but who goes out? It's hard to make a case at the moment.
