Player Watch Beau McCreery

[windchimes]

Players like him on your team are as much important as superstars in building a contending side. How good is his work rate and mentality? That last quarter..

 

[Kirby]

He laid 7 tackles today.

They were just the ones they counted as I reckon he had double that.

 

[rand corp]

He was important today, played high up the ground -around the stoppage- later in the game when it was wet. He really helped to stop them from taking it out of the clearance too quickly or cleanly.

 

[hellfire]

He is the quintessential team player. So often sacrifices an under pressure disposal to tap it on to someone in a better position, or to shepherd the ball to let someone else pick it up cleanly. His stat sheet will never ‘shine’, but I genuinely think he makes us a better side. The last tackle was match-winning, but his pressure was immense all day.

Love me waterboy

He is a tone setter. With the combination of Beau, Ginni, Henry and Elliott (instead of Reef, sad about the shoulder though) we will not be easy to play against up forward.

What was the story with Elliott?

AFL site said illness.

Jeez we missed him i thought. I thought we struggled to provide a good enough contest up forward for half of that game. Kicks in werent great either, which didn't help.

Jamie is rolled gold - a true travesty that he has had to play through such injury.

He said flu in his discord.

Should be in the team every week. 11 touches.. 10 contested, 7 tackles. You need players like him filling out the team

A heap of space clearing body checks too. I think he overdoes them a bit though and should go the ball or peeling away to be an option more often.

 

[DKS17]

his block on the hawthorn player to give checkers space to hit up jordy on the 50 was fantastic

 

[domus]

I hope he continues to get double digit possessions because he makes good decisions with the ball in his hands.

He's good both with and without the footy. Needs to peel off to receive more rather than always looking to body check, but his blocking is excellent

Thank God we played him instead of Tyler Brown

Did the same thing allowing Sidey to hit up the ball unopposed at full pace.

 

[watt price tully]

I love him. He’s quickly becoming a favourite. I’m still wiping the egg off my face as I thought he didn’t do enough to warrant a game before this season and boy was I wrong.
Good on him. Well done Beau McCreery

 

[Mollythedolly]

Yeah, team high 28 pressure acts and a lot of those were “almost” tackles.

 

[Mukesh]

Yup, his disposal by foot is really pretty good. Be good to see him take the opportunity to use the ball more often. Meanwhile he is making opposition players somewhat nervous…

 

[Bianconeri]

Should be in the team every week. 11 touches.. 10 contested, 7 tackles. You need players like him filling out the team

Can’t wait until he gets under 10 possessions for one game and people call for Tyler Brown to be selected over him.

 

[legendstatus]

Sort of player that need to adjust in the AFL system but if he can get 15-20 touches every week, I think he could be the aggressive defensive forward we have been looking for

No defensive forward in the league averages those numbers

Forget about the defensive part, does anyone who plays full time forward average those stats?

I know Kozy Pickett doesn't and he's supposed to be a gun
