I just reviewed every post on this Tsatas thread. A quick summary for anyone wanting to catch up:
  • out of season : a lot of big quad energy talk
  • in-season : a lot of knocking his kicking

Hoping the 2025 season changes all that and he gets played a bit centrally and holds to what he does best.

Also in season: getting lots of touches in the vfl. gonna be a gun AFL mid when he has the size to play there.

Funny but reckon it's probably one of last sets near the end of a full workout and usually you go less on those and they still kill like hell
Yeah I was completely taking the piss, obviously at or near the end of a set
 
It’s a tough crowd

Dying for a big bodied mid

This guy sprays a few drop punts and suddenly he can’t even get any love on what in anyone’s language is a massive rig for a 20yo
I think he is one of only two people on our list (other than Merrett) with the potential to be elite but the huge concern is his seeming inability to kick it past 40 metres. A bit of inaccuracy can be accepted in an inside midfielder with his gift for speed and finding the ball but if he can't kick it over a jam tin it's hard to see him having much of a career.

Plenty of players have made careers out of ripping the ball out of a contest and handing it off without being overly reliant on suspect kicking

It's going to take a serious skill improvement to become elite with a kick like his.
