10 disposals and 8 of those were score involvements. Gun.

I thought he was a good replacement for Adams. Happy to say he is looking to prove me right.
Not that being right is always important but when it means something good for the club I can boast a little. 8)

Now we're a club that matters.
You will have seen some of these, and maybe all of them, but if you want to understand why our club now matters, and why a shift in culture and character have made it matter, watch them in succession.
And whatever you do, don't miss the David Cloke video if you haven't seen it yet.

Surely he doesn't start Sub next week. What a debut, I doubt if he's been to bed yet. I loved his family going off in the Crowd after he slotted through the goal.

His tackling is great.

Sullivan's goal with his first kick after all he did to get there, ignites us to a win.
Could be a season defining moment.

He’s the same height as Matt Rowell and Sullivan is listed as two kilos heavier.
We need to move on from this “ too small “ for a modern day midfielder.
If you can play the position, it doesn’t matter how “ big bodied “ you are.

Far out!
Frankly I thought a few were blowing all too much smoke up his arse in describing the difference he could make, but he was great!
Agree with the comment that he was very Adams-like, just what we needed.

Full game next week, maybe play him on the Wunderkid?

The way he kicked that goal was the look of a confident and calm and talented footballer.
To finish the game with 8 score involvements is fantastic.

With Beau automatic out protocol for concussion plus JDG still dealing with groin issue reckon Sullivan with be in the 22 from first bounce

They're all good, the Cloke one.....geebus he's a big unit but apart from saying "enjoy yourself "333 times it was really good.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

^There was also a sense of return about it for Clokey which makes it more poignant. Whatever tensions may or may not have been, Fly's instinct is always reconciliation.

Shame they didn't pay him on the ball as an in side mid because with 3 minutes left in the match Walsh won a crucial contest when none of our inside players were around the ball. It would be nice to see Sullivan's impact in those situations.

IMO Sullivan can have a crack at filling in for McCreery
