AFL Player #20: Peter Wright

[Lore]

Contract Status: Free Agent (?) 2027
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 21, TheGrizz

He can't mark anymore and he isn't good enough to ruck for long periods.
It's going to be interesting to see what we will do with him moving forward.


Not much point been 2MP if you can't take a mark.

Only has to take 3 or so marks a game inside 55M to average 50 goals a season.

So even if he messes up 7/10 easy marks a game he’s still producing like a top 10 forward in the comp.

It’s obviously incredibly frustrating because if he took 8/10 of those easy marks a game (like people want him too) he’d probably average close to 5 goals a game (which based on last years Coleman results would have him 40-50 goals clear of the winner)

But judging him on his actual production… he’s doing pretty well

 

[ant555]

Well that was all a bit ****ing pointless, wasn’t it?

The slap in the face was Peter Wright (omitted) . The fact he did not play a VFL game is irrelevant . He did not need a VFL game to get the message that he needed to pull the finger out.

Oh dear, I hope his finger is all right

 

[Old Campaigner]

Unless he really turns it on in the last I'm thinking we didn't miss much last week

 

[windyhill]

Devoid of any confidence. That suspension has rooted him.

 

[ant555]

He is done . Playing Goldy in front of him last week did not cost us the game.
Slow legs . Slow brain. No core strength.

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Trade him. Play a more mobile forward line. Surely a contender would give a decentish pick for him.

Thinking of the future, if it revolves around Caddy. More smalls like Kako/Davey.

Langford too despite him moving like the titanic this year.

Bizarre stuff really.

He's 27. He's not going to get any better. Send him to the 2's, for the rest of the year and try something new, next year he will be the Weid depth player who doesn't get any games.

He's not quite that bad.

Only way we could trade him is if we pay most of his salary. Would probably thrive at a better club just like anyone who leaves us.

IDK, Hogan is 29 and rediscovered form. He looked cooked when he left the Dees.

2MP seems to have lost all confidence since the report.

Since the shoulder injury is my opinion.

 

[MiguelM]

Since the shoulder injury is my opinion.

Yeah, doesn't look like taking an overhead mark.

Needs to find something at VFL level or start gym work early, or both.

 

[MarkJohnson#1]

Coward. I’ll have Goldstein in any day.

 

[Old Campaigner]

Since the shoulder injury is my opinion.

It's like it's spooked him and left him afraid of contact

Odd how he had the one good game immediately on return though but has been mostly lame since. Wasn't looking forward to him being automatically included after the suspension was done as thought we looked completely different with Harry's running power and honest competitiveness up forward. The example in the Adelaide at Adelaide oval match we looked a real unit. Could his shoulder actually be stuffed - happens occasionally where guys lose marking ability after surgery.
