Find out who Matthew and Nicholas had as their Weekend Heroes from Saturday's Elimination Final defeat against Adelaide.
Matthew DonaldHostNicholasHostThere's a few players that could hold their heads up quite high.
And again, I think after this little segment here tonight, I think we'll have to give it a little bit of a...
I think another pump-up, I reckon, still to the club, to be fair.
In terms of players, there were some handy players, of course, on the wagon.
There were some, unfortunately, that had their colours lowered for different reasons.
But, look, I think in terms of what...
I had hoped, I think I left a bit of like a little Easter egg at the end of last week's episode, thinking, what could we see in terms of the changes? And not necessarily changes to who's coming in and who's going out, but is anything going to be different in the respective setup? And there certainly was.
And I think if I can picture it, I reckon you're thinking or have an idea who I've got.
I am going to go with someone who I nominated at least twice last year.
Probably three times, I reckon.
And I haven't done so at all this season.
Yeah, that's correct.
I have not gone near him this season.
You have.
Twice.
And he's going to get nominated for the third time this year now, all up.
Let's go Riley West.
Yeah, let's go
with that in terms of what he was able to produce.
And the way... that effectively to some parts of the game, that he pretty much replaced Kennedy in a different light, didn't he? You know, it still had the aggression, still had pretty much the cleanliness.
He was still a very clean footballer for what he produced against the Crows.
And, you know, we've been wondering, you know, he's always had the attributes to be a midfielder at times, as well as having some very, very good attributes to be a successful enough forward.
And, you know, I think the back half of his season, you know, it's not to the extent of last year.
