CPL MVP: 5 - Michael Hurley: Smashed Gunston which was the key to the win 4 - Nick Malceski: Really rebounded well from defence 3 - Liam Picken: Pretty much stopped Swan 2 - Mitch Clark: Was really, really good. Effective around the ground + a good few contested grabs 1 - Dayne Beams: Quality game
Yeah I certainly expected you to win here. Theo's just lucky he's got the best quality KPP depth around. Can't put my finger on why you lost but I think you've just been missing something all season and I can't work out what. Perhaps you just needed a 2008 Browny instead of a 2014 one. I also reckon someone like a Hanley instead of Duryea would have really completed your defence.
