..from a superstar in a grand final?
Did Buddy live up to your expectations? He did to mine.

A special thanks to Williams in the final, among others.

I reckon it's funny how people bag Buddy for not tearing the game apart, but no one says anything about Mitch. Both great players, but only one is expected to star every week.

I don't expect Buddy to tear the game apart. A lot of others do though.

I have to admit, as poor as his set shots are, his kicking around the field and running shots are good to watch.

No one says anything about Mitch because people aren't hyping him up and talking about him every week unlike Buddy who does get all the attention so he should be expected to perform.

But more kudos to the Hawks considering Buddy didnt have much of an impact.
