Player Watch #20 Jacob Koschitzke

[THE THIN MAN]

Looks like he can take a grab.

Very good business for a minimal outlay.

Guys still only 23 too. Plenty of opportunity to develop especially with the guidance of Lynch.

 

[tigs2010]

Oh wow it’s official

 

[daird]

Calling it now, 30-40 goals next season if Lynch is fit.

 

[Mr Magic]

I do not mind Koschitzke, I think he has a few strings and dimensions which is handy.

He has time to develop anyway, different team and setup might help him hopefully

He is a little different to other forwards, maybe even play him half forward

 

[Tonythetiger]

Missed opportunity last year not getting him last year so we could have a forward line of Riewoldt and Koschitzke.

 

[sanaya]

looking forward to him, hope we still manage to get some game time in to both ryan & bauer throughout the year. either ryan as 2nd ruck or bauer as 3rd tall with kosi taking some ruck

got 3 decent prospects, hopefully 1 of them makes it

 

[energyquant]

Lynch + Koschitzke, leaves Colina with the 3rd tall defender!

 

[TigerPaul71]

welcome Jacob, looking forward to seeing you in the Yellow and Black

 

[tiger_tough]

Tall, athletic, competitive and can take a mark. It's a good base. If he can build his consistency in all areas and we'll have a steal.

If we can get a few marks and 1 goal per game while taking a defender away from Lynch I'll he happy. Hopefully he can be the one that pushes up the ground to present a target so Lynch can stay deep.

 

[TigerImposter]

If he’s best 22 then we’re in trouble.

 

[juss]

I hear he's pretty average, but it's a position we need depth in, so he fills a cheap need for a ready made AFL body.

Hopefully he surprises. 30+ goals he's probably a win.

 

[Dr Tigris]

Welcome Jacob.

really happy with this. Pretty much a free hit. Minimal cost potential to be a role player KPF. With a chance of actually being good.

Good trade period

 

[Madtiger2006]

198cm.
Only 1cm shorter than Lynch

Hoping he turns out a better player than those beanpoles at the Bears!

 

[Madtiger2006]

Well he should do better than jack this season. I’d say he’s better than McStay who would have played in the premiership if not injured

Yeah shorter and stockier. Happy with this trade

Koschitzke looks a very good fit for us, he has shown above average marking ability, a good lead up forward and a turn of speed, all these attributes should make him a dangerous forward and allow him to become that high half forward that can come up the ground and provide a marking outlet in our transition from the backline. Providing he can find the consistency required at the level he should be the perfect foil for Tom Lynch and allow them both to flourish. Looks to be a very valuable acquisition for the RFC.

NEXT TIME TRY COPY and PASTE

 

[Roachy8]

Looks like the type that can push up to the wing and provide a marking target out of the backline- and boy have we needed that player lately…..

 

[Foley#41]

I think you mean…. Dud. Delist.

 

[Tigerbob]

Happy to bring him in. Think he will add to us.

Actually think the combination of Lynch (fingers crossed) Koschitzke and Bauer as the third tall could be very hard to stop.

I’m a bit more concerned by the smalls around them.
