Hird said on the Fox Sports commentary, "Is he [Blake] the least talked about player who is actually good?"

In what has otherwise been a disappointing year so far, Blake has been superb and definitely doesn't not get the recognition he deserves.

Couldnt agree more. His effort never faulters, his consistency is fantastic and he is probably one of the most efficient ball users in the side at the moment.

Has eradicated the brain fades of earlier years and is now a vital part of the backline.

About as dependable as it gets.. Well, apart from that missed goal.
Love the Blake... being a backman when I played junior footy.

Neil is much appreciated by the club. He has finished top 10 in the Trevor Barker Award for the past three years.

I was a Blake basher a couple of years ago but apologise now as he is a great servant to defence and makes many good decisions.

Far better back than forward IMO although I wished he could have kicked that goal late today.


Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.

You need to protect the ball handler to increase posession efficiency

Finally getting some recognition. His last three years have been excellent.

Was a whipping boys once and has well and truly found his feet! This bloke is absolute dynamite! We wouldn't stand a ghost of a chance winning a GF without him! Jason you are a gun who makes the right choices under pressure! Well done JB!! :wink: :D
