Past #32: Mason Wood - 65 NM games/76 NM goals - delisted end '20 - SSP selection for STK '21 - GL Mase

[Heaps of fun]

Shame no-one wanted him.

 

[The Filth Wizard]

He looks mint.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

He looks mint.

If it was all about appearance, he’d by up to his fifth Brownlow by now.

I know, I know.

 

[The acurate one]

Well he's ours, so let's back him the **** in. who knows the penny may well drop. Fingers crossed as they say.

 

[GunSchwatta]

Was he injured or just not selected?

Maybe I missed an update

 

[Del191229]

Not selected.

 

[GunSchwatta]

Not selected.

Wow.

Thanks.

 

[Billy Not Really]

Last chance saloon for Wood this season I wager.

 

[GunSchwatta]

Yes no doubt.

Maybe crazily I still hold hope he will start performing.

 

[Caracas]

Yes no doubt.

Maybe crazily I still hold hope he will start performing.

Well, the Bulldogs game, probably, did Mason a favour. The fact he wasn’t selected spared him the pile-on that he would have undoubtedly received.

I like Mason as we are pretty stodgy and I like his flair.

Certainly prefer him than a few others.

 

[Rad Roo]

Definitely has superstar qualities if not opportunities, mason is either a coach's nightmare or gem (if you are a good coach). He needs to be let free, put in position where he is exposed to the least amount of pressure. As a forward, like Daw pressure and expectation is too high for instance nearly clunking a difficult mark is not a mark but pinky finger tip to the ball last line of defense is a fantastic save. This is why moving Daw to defense and now Wood will be great moves. Wood has got this Andrew Mackie type future if we get things right.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Would rather have him in the forward line over Garner.

 

[Psicosis]

Laughable that blokes like Turner get a game ahead of Mason. Turners pressure is the most overrated thing since champagne & **** sex.

If we are gonna have someone in our forward line missing targets and going missing for periods of time, may as well be a bloke like mason who can turn it on and kick a bag.

 

[GunSchwatta]

I'm starting to wonder if there is more to it.

Seems to be out of favour two coaches in a row.

Turner is possibily gone for the season. As for his stats:

From the AFL Prospectus: We have scored 114 points directly from turnovers caused by Kayne's pressure in the last two seasons. Ranks him 14th in the AFL for this measure.

Great stat. But that is literally all he does. Hes added nothing more, nothing less

Is he leading the club for that stat? That would mean 12-13 clubs have a player doing it better?
I like KT but need more offensive output.

If we are to be a serious contender, he's not best 22

What’s happening with this guy is he injured?

any info?

Everything turned on the head of a pin.

 

[HongKongRoo]

Wood will play at some point but he is not starting in round 1. He needs to kick a bag in the VFL, hold some marks and make a few tackles stick. He's got the tuning circle of Sandilands and the tackling prowess of JMac.

 

[remfan101]

...I can’t believe we’ve basically written this guy off.
