Your opinions??

Not sure if I agree with the difference in points between Durante and Siggy. Dura was caught a long way upfield too but was lucky a goal didn't result. Both were very good, made many vital interceptions (Siggy especially) and showed the kind of determination and desire to make something positive happen. Unfortunately the missing midfield put too much pressure on the back four.

Pasty a clear man of the match for me. Really happy to see him answer his critics in the best possible way.

Totori up a bit. 8 sounds good.

Paston 4 probably.

 Paston by a country mile.

 Benji 4.5 Little impact
Steiny 4.5 Little impact

Seems a little harsh when we were down to 9 players, had taken off Sanchez and hardly got the ball to them.

Benji tracked back and made a crucial tackle at the end too, just to keep the hope alive for an extra minute...

 Every meaningful attack from the Roar came down our left and Lochie was left wanting countless times..... again. He's absolute rubbish.

Soggy was a liability, Dura unfortunately was similar. Soggy can't go screaming out of position and expect not to get punished. He makes so many interceptions because he's constantly charging through. However when he Misses we are stretched too much and struggle to contain the opposition.

His positional play this year has been pants

 ^this. Thank you. Been saying this for how long...
