Player Watch #5: Curtis Taylor

[My Left Foote]

Was getting regular games until his injury and actually doing ok. Too little too late perhaps.

Was getting regular games and doing okay, then fell away, then got dropped and then got injured. Way too little too late.

 

[amaz199]

Took a few nice marks, kicked a couple of nice goals and laced out a kick to Sheezel.

That is basically his career. Showing glimpses but doesn't really get anywhere.

 

[chubbspeterson]

Our loss is Travel Guides gain.

Followed by Love Island and Amazing Race.

He can play as evidenced by those games

I’d rather keep him another year, with the caveat of unless we have a bunch of players who have agreed to come over

 

[Psi-Roos]

Oh no... who is going to represent NMFC at Oaks Day now?

Sadly our captain always seems to have that penciled in

 

[Shermanator]

Played brilliant under Shaw, won us a game against the Saints from memory and unfortunately was never the same.

All the best CT.

PS: Can I have your Bird Cage tickets?..

 

[Ashley B]

Was always waiting for him to become more consistent, he does have ability. Timing is everything as someone else pointed out if he was in a team at the top things may have worked out better. He would have been able to use his attributes with less pressure.

 

[zoomba23]

Won't lose sleep over this one. Still a bit grumpy at him for showing as much as he did in the early stages and then abjectly failing to build on that. Not sure how you get weaker, less explosive and less confident with each preseason. Thanks for your time mate, enjoy real estate or DJing or whatever

Jesus, that's a beat up!! Was never brilliant, just showed some promise. Didn't come on and doesn't come across too dedicated, unfortunately still better than some we'll keep.

No it’s not a beat up he was excellent during Shaws time and looked a big part of the future, probably 10 times better than you ever were cobra..

Let me tell you something Sherm, 9.6 disposals and 0.5 goals per game under Shaws.

Beat me to it! He certainly wasn't excellent.

Not any longer.. Dermies Daughter kicked him to the curb

Yeah well to be honest I couldn’t be bothered crunching the numbers on this one, so it might’ve been Nobles, or Scott’s or Rattens or Crockers or Barrasis then..

But he had a purple patch of form when he started playing further up the ground and 93.3% of this board said he turned the corner, so I’ll give him credit for that period, the rest is a reflection of our ladder standing over the past 5 years.

 

[Shinboner1]

So he's not been offered a contract?

I actually think its a shame,,,,the talent is there, I have no idea but considering his apparent lack of physical development is preparation and work ethic an issue? If that's the case, perhaps its the kick up the ass he needs to go elsewhere and make a career for himself. Could do worse than him on the rookie list.

Prediction or fact?

Somewhere in between, but that’s the word I’m hearing.
May hinge on what happens with Sleevo. But all I’ve been told about him & his exit interview is that there’s more to play out.

He never had a great season or prolonged period, I'm not even sure his best game was 'brilliant'.

You're part of that the other 6.7% I was talking about. Like clockwork.

The Saints want him so we may have just said we'd attempt to trade rather than delist.

Not at all. I thought he'd be a gun, so not sure what you mean? To say he was ever brilliant is incorrect.

 

[King Corey]

Love ya work Shermanator but not sure on this one.

Adrian McAdam was brilliant. Curtis Taylor

In the games we won he was crucial. He won contests and stopped the opposition getting away with the ball. We wouldn't have won against the Saints if he hadn't played the way he did. The difference between those few games and the rest of his career is pretty significant tho.

Yeah, I agree to an extent and as I said I was a fan and thought we'd jagged one. I guess there were reasons why he slid in the draft. I remember the Saints game well, looked at the stats and he had 10 and a goal. My statement was around him having a brilliant patch of games, that definitely never happened.
