Player Watch #46: Robert Hansen Jnr - Extends to End 2025

[Makeshift Park]

RHJ’s improvement throughout the season, plus the lack of any viable alternatives in his position, means he should get another year you’d reckon.

 

[RossHenshaw]

In a small list of reasonable players … I thought he was one of our best from limited opportunities. I can see something in him from the type of player we desperately need .

 

[DuckYeah]

I had him delisted a month ago. Might end up on a new deal

 

[DuckYeah]

It feels like this is his ceiling. Meh

He found front and centre in the only part of the game I watched and kicked a goal. The only others to do that in our team are Harry and PC.

 

[viccles]

Don't mind if we give him another year. Also don't mind if we let him go

So in betwixt and between

I'm not convinced but he's shown enough to give a bit more time

 

[The acurate one]

Hope he stays if he leaves to go home may break the Kerridge world record against us .

Lol, true. He has been improving incrementally enough, first in the VFL and now at AFL level, that we simply have to give him another year IMO. Was the only one trying to create something in our forward line yesterday and often had two Doggies hanging off him while doing it.

Delist him and he'll probably kick a bag on us in the next few years, and we'll all log on with our "Brady wtf!!" etc.

"We look for little things, even out of today's game, Robbie Hansen kicking a couple of goals, looking a lot tidier with the ball, a lot more comfortable with the level, that's a little win for us out of these sorts of games."

 

[BlueandWhiteinmyBlood]

He has improved each game he has played and actually has gotten better all season in the twos. Couldn’t ask anything more of him yesterday. I thought he got to some good spots too, crumbed a nice goal, kicked another and could have had 3. As a club we kicked 6. Definitely adjusting to the tempo of league footy and looks to be better for each run.

 

[shintemaster]

I see improvement and is a desperate hole on our list. He'd be down the list of exits for me - some much easier calls to make.

 

[Ether]

Most get it done with agility, paply for example is no jet.

Yep. Toby Greene is not a bad player either. If you chucked Sheez in the forward pocket for the season, he'd kick plenty.

 

[DocSholl]

Self belief is one of the biggest obstacles he’ll face.

I think this is why you would give him another year. There's a chance it does click for him

No one will ever beat Ryan Nyhuis for Kerridge/Perrie points!

 

[Passmore]

Geez, it'd be a kick in the nuts if he decided playing for Subiaco was a preferable option.

His best game thus far for the Mighty NMFC. You would think he is working his way into another contract. :stern look

 

[blackshadow]

I'd written him off earlier in the season but am very pleased with his improvement and think he deserves a new contract.

 

[Samsquanch]

I actually gave him a vote today, leading goalkicker in that shitshow, definitely persist with him

Hasn't learned to do the team things yet, like dropping the head and giving up when a couple of bad decisions go the wrong way or to attempt the screamer against Larkey on the rare occasion he's in the box seat for a mark.

Really seeing the benefit of investing in top line development coaches with RHJ.

Still got another 12 months left from the arden st fumbling academy to graduate . If hes really good he will obtaing a doctorite and major in dump kicking like our co captains have attained.

Good to see a few more people starting to see it with RHJ.
I get that he hasn’t set the world on fire but I think he’s building really nicely game on game. He’s played 7 games and the fact some were willing to write him off after his first game this year was bloody mind boggling.

No idea if he makes it but I think he’s shown enough for another year.

 

[amaz199]

Another week. It's turning.

 

[Flawed Genius]

I still don't see it. But he is the best option we have.

Cooper appears gone. Drury is as vanilla as they come. Sausage is a wait and see and doesn't even play in Bobby Lachie's position.

RHJ basically gets another year by default.
