Add Fisher to the mix for mine. Underrated due to his height, but has shown the capability to perform against senior bodies already and has a lot of good attributes. If he bulks up a bit he could be a quality player.
Yeah not as keen on the Galluci pick, but admittedly a lot of people had Parker and even Duggo down as vanilla pre-draft. The matter of fact is, no matter anyones opinion on this board, those associated with the club will have looked into the players far more than anyone else here.
So many...
I have actually read a lot of KM's stuff in the past. Admittedly I've been away for a little bit but I must say I'm quite surprised in the least. I've heard from multiple sources that PP has been sliding due to his foot skills and decision making skills while Berry has been quite the opposite...
Guys, I understand all the talk about Powell-Pepper, because he's a strong contested ball winner and has an exciting athletic build to match, but if you look at any draft profiles, even on the main board, pick 12 is a massive reach. There's so much top end midfield talent that are much better...
I think West Coast fans will be the first to tell you that our midfield depth is less than fantastic. However, after adding Sheed, it's actually looking quite competitive, and we have a few youngsters who have shown a fair bit of promise. It's just lacking a little bit in top end quality. I...
Exactly. And a lot of their frees are also just from being first to the ball and going hard at the contest. It inflates the free kick stats which people then quote as if they're all from ducking. Some people are clueless. It's not a great thing to see but that matter of fact is, all those blokes...
Look that was a day to forget for the boys, bar one or two, no one stood up, it was a team thing. The heat has been on multiple times this year, in particular this afternoon, and he stood up and delivered an elite performance under immense pressure. You can't cite one game and forget the rest...
I didn't realise you could win 23 contested possessions for ducking your head! I don't like the way the can tend to lower his body to look for a free kick, but he not only racked up 38 disposals, of which 23 were contested, he had 13 clearances and 6 tackles. I'm pretty sure it's already...
Hahaha nice try mate. I don't like the way Shuey tends to duck his head, but quite a lot of his frees are from being first to the ball and going hard at the contest. If a guy that racked up 38 disposals, 23 contested, 13 clearances & 6 tackles today is soft, then **** me sideways. Not to mention...
As an actual neutral supporter, I must say that I think Cripps is the better player compared to Merrett. Both are incredible, neither as good as the Bont, but watching Cripps in that last quarter, he's just an exceptional player around the contest. His brute strength, ability to get his arms...
That's because for the first three quarters his role was primarily to shut down Zaharakis which he did with aplomb, and was allowed more free reign in the midfield in the last, where he picked up 7 disposals. His versatility allowing him to play a lock down defender, his defensive mindset, and...
Sounds like Lycett responded well. Surely makes his way back into the side for Giles/McInnes against the Dons.
Also really happy with the way Jacko's been going about it recently. Had a quieter second half, but his ball winning has been impressive since moving into the midfield, and I think his...
Lycett in for McInnes is definite and I certainly agree with Nelson in for one of Hutch/Redden.
Jetta wasn't fantastic, but you can see a lot of it is based on the fact that he's down on confidence, and continual chopping and changing and the irregularity makes it even more difficult.
Barrass...
Look I have no issue with you disagreeing with any of those statements, but come on, I'm just trying to be reasonable and it's purely subjective. I feel categorise it as ill-informed is a little unfair judging as it's based on opinion.
Oh absolutely, without a doubt, and I completely understand that, but the magnitude of the hate is just incomprehensible. I also just dislike how people group together West Coast (& Freo) fans in the same basket. We both get some really horrible representatives and they become generalised and it...
Oh no don't get me wrong, I'm not making any excuses for other West Coast fans, in making that point I wasn't purely referring to your board, but considering the rest of the message was targeted at Freo it was hard to re-word it. It does go both ways and the hate towards Freo on our board...
Guys if you don't mind me interjecting, there are a few points I'd like to make.
Firstly, what is with the ridiculous amount of hate towards West Coast? Look I understand there's a bitter rivalry between the clubs, and that's all well and good, banter is always appreciated and you're allowed to...
Hey lads, I've noticed Coniglio has been racking it up the last few weeks, although his first two games of the season were a little average (fantasy wise). Can you tell me the reason for this change (perhaps a new role), and if you think he'll be able to sustain it? Cheers :)
Any update on Lamb? Sounded like he was fit and firing in the interview but been quiet on the scoresheet. I understand there's been a lack of delivery but how's he looked so far
