Meanwhile, Gibbo puts in another anonymous, deer in the headlights performance in Saturday night's big game.

He'd at least know what it was like to beat Geelong if he stayed with us.

Meanwhile, Gibbo puts in another anonymous, deer in the headlights performance in Saturday night's big game.

To be fair, he had his mind on the big night ahead on the podium at Love Machine.

Agree to disagree then because he will become a much better player once he gains some more size, if franklin were to stand next to black you'd see an overwhelming difference in size, he still has a lot to go physically

Buddy is bigger because of more years in the system. You don't want Black to get to Tippett size I don't think.

 

[Thewlis Dish]

On that table- Remember that's with Cameron playing as their only real forward option too, Black is scoring heavily as a THIRD tall or second at times, and is crumbing goals a big man should not even be able to.

On the flip side it means Cameron gets the best backman and usually a second man up. What he is doing in that side is nothing short of remarkable.

No Doubt, just saying that Black has probably had less bites at the cherry so to speak, so his conversion rate is pretty amazing.

Im a big Cameron fan, don't worry about that.

Had to wait 32 posts into the thread for a rebuttal of this. I think he has a fair boot on him. Gets the journey over 50-55 with ease IMO. Of course goal kicking and accuracy in general is a journey not a destination

ok maybe im expecting too much! i want a Taz like boot on him, ive seen Black kick a few short this year, not making the journey and being touched on the line...

I want my key position players to be big and powerful but that's just me

Lol what a f***ing joke. Doesn't even get a nomination for goal of the round.

Dwyers got in over his which is a disgrace. cant fault gunstons and kennedys for the time they were kicked but anyone can do Dwyers.
He was outside fifty ffs.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

I've never liked GOTY including goals based on the time in the game that they happened. They're always stock standard kicks, fair enough with Kennedys it was on the wrong foot though.

Blacks was easily top 3 of the round, it's a joke.

 

[Black Diamond]

Black's running goal on the boundary against Hawthorn is still his best for the season.

 

[benbanjo]

Josh Gibson we owe you one for deciding to leave!!! this kid can play!!

 

[Winter]

Black's running goal on the boundary against Hawthorn is still his best for the season.

That was so immense.

 

[Ry009]

As good on the deck as he is in the air. +1 robbed for GOTY nomination.

Anywho..cheers The Other Gibbo.

 

[CharlieMortdecai]

He has too much talent to be allowed to fall through the cracks. I'd like to see Lachie move back to CHB, where he was absolutely dominant at u18 level.

This would allow a forward line of Drew, Tarrant and Black.

Looked pretty good last weekend. Well done Psicosis.

 

[Artaxx]

some amazing calls in this thread. don't like bumps or naming names, but bloody hell!!

 

[Tas]

Can't say I posted anything I regret. I probably didn't see Hansen going back to the backline, but he has taken like a duck to water back there. I think that move has parted the sea in terms of fixing the forward structure.

 

[Saintly31]

Terrible OP. Clown has no idea.

 

[Bigeasy]

Aaron Black needs a BIG preseason.

And he did.

 

[Bigeasy]

It's absolutely incredible to me that people still, after 2012, think Lachie is best suited to defense.

Um.......

 

[Wells Now Williams Fan]

Aaron Black - where does he fit in 2013?

EVERYWHERE is the answer !!!!

Should be coach
