This is why all of us were so critical on him the start of this season! We know how damaging he can be

 

[quotemokc]

2 great games in a row.

Hopefully he can maintain this type of play when we play tighter games.

Dodoro: "We have decided to accept your offer from 2 weeks ago"
Zaka's Manager: "Forget it..."

Someone must have reminded him he's out of contract at the end of the year.

It's not only that he's finding the ball and using it well, he's prepared to get his hands dirty again. Not skirting packs, tackling hard and taking on the responsibility expected of a senior player. Had the most tackles on the ground today, when was the last time we were able to say that?!

 

[Barry Roundhouse]

He has been marked really hard by us supporters this year, because of what he has shown us the last two weeks. He is a star when he puts it all together. I'm really happy for him and us.

 

[Doss]

David, you confuse me. If he played like this all the time...

 

[ezard15]

Boy what a turn a round!

Took a very courageous mark, think it was just before half time.

 

[Whispering_Jack]

Worked very hard and well inside as well as out. Just what we want to be seeing!

 

[bacon buster]

looks like a different player
he is running EVERYWHERE, and is giving an option all over the ground.
he's a much better version of Stanton (at his best) at the moment

 

[SherbertLemon]

7 tackles. Went in hard. Please keep proving me wrong mate.

 

[Summer Nights]

Deserves props for a great game.

 

[Shane Hird]

When on song he's beautiful to watch. Poetry in motion.

Gliding around in graceful beast mode. The Zaka of old...i mean like the 20 year old version.

No turning back now. No more doubts. He's back.

 

[Bombermania]

Zaka's first half was massive, his tackling, his chasing, his clean disposal, both him and Jobe turned the clock back today with how good they were particularly when the game was there to be won, it just made the likes of Zach, Parish and co more damaging.

told yall he'd come good

 

[RearNaked]

From this morning's press conference!

What a gun.

 

[jmoo wan]

What a gun.

Legend! I can even overlook the incorrect use of whoever.

Edit: I just watched the video and it was glorious! Also he was misquoted! He actually said, "They can boo all they want"

 

[Pweter]

What's his trade value now?

Increasing

 

[Unfazed]

Love how that comment doesn't even pretend to have any respect for Mitchell.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

The banned players were probably frothing to get some pay back against Mitchell.

Suffer in your jocks you prick.

 

[BrunoV]

Would be stunned if he left Essendon. Some posters seem to want him to walk under free agency but I can't see it happening .

 

[mayhem20202]

I think the underlying want is for consistency. No one wants the good Zaka to leave, they just want the good Zaka for 18 of 22 games of the year, instead of 8 of 22 games of the year

35 touches must be close to his most ever. Sure there was a few bad ones but doing a lot right with most. 3 big games in a row.

65.5% efficiency with 29 uncontested possessions, no team is going to worry about him because he constantly turns it over by foot.
