Tell you what, players stand up.

Ed Richards was brilliant last week in that win against Melbourne.

Last night, huge effort in that fourth quarter.

Ed Allen did a really good job on Marcus Bondapalli in the last quarter, and they got control of the game in the back end of it in the middle of the ground, Collingwood.

But I'll tell you what, Ed Richards, when your stars stand up, and he's had some injury concerns all year, as we know, but when you stand up and 12 touches,

Again, you don't win close games in any sport, Pickers, without your stars, or one of them, standing up and delivering.

You know what was equally as important as that, Mark?

Was he another mid-season job?

Yeah, mid-season.

He was part of that list I spoke about at the top of the show.

As important as that, Mark, was...

So is his kick out that was marked by Tim English, who hasn't been there for a lot of this year as well during injury.

And he was there early when they were good.

And then, of course, I think kind of slapped almost everyone, myself included, in the face how important Tim English was.

And that mark was almost a microcosm of it because he hasn't been there to do that in the last six or so weeks.

No major talk.

Our man's a salty bulldog at the back.

Salty Bulldog, best dressed.

I'll tell you what, hard to believe that the technology is not working.

Oh, no.
