Hollands and Ainsworth deserve additional Kudos as they were swimming against the tide when melbourne were well on top IMHO.  Of course, Dean and Weitering were no slouches in this regard, but still sometimes to get going you need a few good soldiers who just keep on keeping on.

I didn't think that Melbourne was on top at any stage.  They were certainly on top on the scoreboard in the first quarter but we were playing better footy. 

The player who I thought really got us going was Cotters with his link up work.  If only he hadn't kept aiming at the posts  ::)

And a Q I asked earlier... anyone know the record for a single player hitting the post the most times in a game? Surely 3 has to be close. And number by the team? 5 also seemed a lot.

Reply #57 and reply #60 on pages 4 and 5 of this thread. That's the best we can do I'm afraid.
