Looks fatigued

Looks fatigued

Just play him behind the ball as the 7th defender.

Get rid of Hall. He has burnt his credits and is done.

 

[Harris 10]

Looks fatigued

He’s slowly introducing the Jack Ziebell dump kick into his repertoire.

The bye will come at a good time for him.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Still would be leading our bnf

 

[R00StaR]

I reckon he is fairly cooked after the first 12 games. The bye will definitely help him

Yep the freshen up will do him well, i maintain we use him at half back tho. I wouldn't have said that at the start of the season, but seeing how well he went its a no brainer imo.
Having that quarterback type able to hit corridor targets is massive. We have plenty of mids already and he can be used to pinch hit up forward from time to time even though he'll have plenty of chances to kick goals from HB when the backs press up.

Scott, Logue, Sheezel, Larkey, Ziebell, Goldstein

GW may have something so say about this list in the second half of the year.

It has been both a curse and a blessing having out 2 best players out for most of the year.

Apart from the game where he kicked 3 and had 20-odd possessions, I feel his kicking has been better utilised and more damaging across HB. We haven't yet seen the ball enough in his hands for that final kick inside 50 enough to judge absolutely, but at this stage our defence has been so all over the place, the only reliable kick out out defensive 50 over the last month has been Logue.

I’d be happy if we rest him this week or some point down the track. However sheez seems like a bloke who is hellbent on playing each game and is as competitive as they come and is very committed when it comes to recovery it seems judging by that interview with 7

 

[Horizons_00]

Panic is starting to set in and he’s starting to hack kick it on his boot with no direction.

He definitely needs a break. This bye will do him a lot of good

 

[Souup]

He's so good we're already used to it and are starting to take him for granted.

He had 24 touches at 75% and set a career high amount of pressure points with 54, suggesting the juice is there and he's working hard defensively.

I watched each of his touches back and he was still very classy and made his touches count. The main thing he appeared to do (and I don't know if this was a coaching directive) was kick long to 2v2 or 1v1 contests, at least more so than usual. Nothing wrong with that, particularly as most of his kicks were to advantage or at worst, a 50/50 ball.

He's ridiculously good.

Forgot the bye

He’s slowly introducing the Jack Ziebell dump kick into his repertoire.

The bye will come at a good time for him.

Forget waiting for the bye round , it's time to give him a rest now. The kids just fatigued trying to cover the likes Hall and Ziebell and playing all over the place.

Play him deep forward for a week.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Fumbled like he had feet for hands which was uncharacteristic.

Superb when he actually did cleanly grasp it.

 

[Devil Fish]

Looks fatigued

BIG time. Looked very fumbly vs GWS.

You'd be tempted to rest him vs WB & then work up through the bye to finish the season off strong.

 

[viccles]

I keep saying - play him toward

 

[Lomas]

You may keep saying it, but I still don't get what you mean.

In SE Asia to ward means to admit someone to hospital.
My wife is a doctor so I've learned something

My mother is a witch, and to ward means to construct protective spells around an important area. So defense?

 

[shinboner magic]

Id rest him this week - looks to have lost a bit of zip

 

[The Nostradamus]

Still one of our best on the weekend

 

[DocSholl]

He's stupidly good. There was one kick to Zurhaar which set up Larkey's second goal where he literally changed the kick at the last second off the outside of his boot.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Can’t wait to see him announced as our bnf winner

Rising star award also

 

[Grogg]

Has he got the most possessions of a rookie sown up yet?

Must be close.

 

[amaz199]

He was bloody good today.

 

[tazaa]

I judge the kid way too harshly than I should and he’s becoming a victim of his own high standards.
