If he sticks around next year needs to reverse his preseason gym work.

Weight in the top, slim down in the legs.

Work rate- Good
One on one- Poor


Looked more settled in the first half playing up the ground and actually kicking to HF- all i've been wanting to see all season. 2nd half we go to a more traditional setup and not much from him at all, couldn't impact the contest.
He didn't look like winning a one on one contest, a shadow of his former self. If we get any draft pick for him we'll be lucky.
 
I can't believe how bad Aaron Black is, hopefully this is the last time he puts on a North Guernsey.

YEs i was still hopeful but looks gone and i think he will be traded as sad as that is.He was going to be a Star but shoulder injurys and no confidence looks lost.
 
Looks nothing like the player we saw in 2013. The one that Dermott Brereton said could become a top 5 forward in the AFL.
 
*sigh* I can see that after Jacobs last year and BMac this year, I'll have to get on the Black Truck next year if we keep him.

Srsly though I'd still be prepared to wait and see if he still sucks after getting a bit of continuity and a clearer role before writing him off completely. One off games when he's almost guaranteed straight back out haven't done him any favours.

Another one of those guys that I hate to bag because he was nice to me that one time.
 
He'll pull through, just an off year after clearly playing injured for most of last season, and it didn't help him that we upgraded for Waite.

I don't think it's a good idea to be trading him, the club signed him for 4 years so they must have seen something. Accompanied by the fact that besides talk for years, even when he was in form that he'd go to Freo, he stayed. The club should keep him as he is a good depth player at his worst, with the potential to really spark up our forward line.
