Player Watch #14 Tim Taranto.

[aislegi]

No you just get the overall total. To be fair, the votes seem to me to be a reasonable reflection of how the players played. 10 people could probably have a go at the 5-4-3-2-1 and all get a different combination.

You don’t think it’s strange that one coach had Bolton, Taranto, Balta, or Ward as best on ground, while the other coach didn’t have that player in their top five?

General stiffness I believe that is

Into $11 for the Brownlow

 

[Lsta062]

This guy’s the recruit of the year and so underrated. He’s consistent and hits the scoreboard. Let’s see if they finally put him in the Brownlow conversation

Will have an AA blazer, top five Brownlow finish and a B&F at the end of the year.

Did i mention I love Taranto? This guy is so consistent every week and is starting to get used to the game plan and is such a smart footballer. In the 2nd quarter at the stoppage he just kicks the ball on slightly for Bolton to swoop on the ball.
30+ disposals again and 2 goals. All Australian and should be brownlow winner.

i think the improvement of Taranto has really co encidid with the understanding of his role each week, i think he's starting to do his job brilliantly
im a believer

His composure has improved massively. Had a few rough edges coming in. He’s an absolute jet now.

35 possessions 7 tackles 2 goals at 71%

Taking the piss now

It is unusual, but I think it speaks more to the fact it was really hard to distinguish between the best handful of players on the ground than anything else.

 

[Lsta062]

Imagine the current Taranto in the same side as Lynch

 

[Daka]

He is everything I thought he would be, I honestly knew we were getting a gun, but i'd say he has even far exeeded my expectations.
He wasn't doing this at the Giants the last couple of years.
So damaging the hunt 35 pressure acts he does it both ways, I'd argue there is only a couple of players in the game doing what Taranto is doing both ways.

Perhaps - but suspect it (also) has to do with a coach focusing on their own players, rather than making a balanced, objective assessment

 

[Rioli2Rioli]

Timmy Tarantino's best year to date was 2019 when GWS got spanked in the GF against the Dynasty team Richmond
In 2019 Timmy was his clubs B & F Winner


Until 2023

[Muddiemoose]

Just shows how GWS stuffed up their list build by having an abundance of midfielders instead of getting some role players to complement

Taranto and Cog’s got pushed out of the midfield because they wanted to play the younger Mids because they couldn’t play other positions and ultimately forced guys that could of been the top Mids in the entire comp

Cornes is such a flog that he would still say yeah the numbers are good but Taranto is not a match winner

 

[Orange crush]

Is he top 150 yet? Asking for a friend

 

[Muddiemoose]

Cornes is such a flog that he would still say yeah the numbers are good but Taranto is not a match winner

Na now he is basically taking credit for his form line improving

 

[Vassp]

We needed a ball winner and we found one, a great accumulator and has been hitting the score board as well.
credit to him for rising above the negativity -including mine.
