I like to give credit when it is due, and Perry's passing game was spot on last night and his kicking wasn't too foul either. It's no coincidence he played well against the Bulldogs - I believe that's where played in reserves for a while before getting shown the door.
Again Thorn was "the man" in defence - which he has been almost all year. His clean-up work around the ruck will be missed next year.
If Parker hadn't thrown that pass with about five minutes to go, five metres from the Bulldogs line, we would have been a chance.
