Player Watch #6: George Wardlaw - two-time RS nominee ('23 &'24) - The Warlord/ The Boss - out vs RFC w/ delayed concussion

[LB2Snake]

Hopefully, almost missing his right boot when he’s attempting rushed kicks doesn’t become a feature going forward.

What about the diabolical left he attempted…….had a mare our boy georgey.

With KISS gets the chocolates though Bertie.

Never understood the whole thing with traditional rock acts being backed by classical orchestras.

It’s just the same old blues based pentatonic scales played by classical instruments - not classical music at all.

 

[Frank Thring]

A communist then

Well I did go see renditions of Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky

 

[marklovesbeer]

I like quite a bit of classical, how about Beethoven's glorious 9th

Years ago a mate & I went seen 2001, a Space Odyssey with the Adelaide Symphony orchestra. Was amazing. I remember we snuck a bottle of vodka in & during one of the silent parts of the film got the giggles & could not stop laughing. Very mature.

And at the house of Bertie and Mrs B.

My favourite ever MSO concert was when they backed the Beach Boys about 15 years ago!! What a night.

Never been much a fan of contemporary artist collaborations with a Symphony Orchestra I've got to admit.

Watching Oldboy with a live symphony would be tempting. The hammer scene would be transcendental.

You're post made me think, "yeah, sometimes strings in pop and rock are mawkish and awful". But I couldn't think of any examples off the top of my head, so I googled "worst strings in pop".
To my brief annoyance, the first result was this fantastic article that named about a dozen songs that I love with orchestral arrangements! Bloody good read:

Strings Please: The Rise And Fall Of The Orchestral-pop Sound Of The 1990s - Part One - God Is In The TV

I have always been a fan of artists that used strings and extra instrumentation and throughout the ‘90s there were records that used such arrangements,

There's some good shit in there.

For the final word re classical music endorsement…..

 

[Samsquanch]

Yes. That's what I was trying to remember when I posted above. This is a classic!!!

Damn, there is some good shit in there!

Love me some Bjork especially, she was a genius.

Thanks for posting Charlie

The orchestras and the artists love them, and everyone makes a shit ton of money from them, too. So they'll be around for a long while yet.

The cultured wrecking ball.

This kid is the best.

 

[Hojuman]

Orchestral Prog.not to be sneezed at. Sure George loves a bit of Renaissance.

 

[tazaa]

Fast forward him to 100 games please.
Can’t wait to see him at his peak.

The ultimate predator! North board would have collectively lost it if that effort from the pocket went through. Hot diggitty!

 

[Nylex]

Thought George’s hands weren’t happening for him today. Seemed to struggle to grab the ball cleanly. Hopefully just one of those days

 

[koshari]

Looked to line up hff chf a bit, what was going on there? played into the game pretty well but that 1 v 4 up set up a goal was crazy good.

Feels like it’s been since his concussion his games have been just like that

 

[Rollmop]

Will be unstoppable. Fair chance he’ll have his first Brownlow by then . . .

 

[Roosurgence]

Agree.

It’s the one part of his game he really needs to work hard on.

If he starts to take possession cleanly with his power and burst he will be very hard to stop.

Should be a big focus of his training, ground ball drills.

It also could be a carry over from his hamstring issues. People with a history of bad hammies can sometimes be more hesitant to stay lower for that extra split second.

 

[Rooniversity]

Wasn't he an absolute beast at times yesterday! So glad he's ours.

Considering he just turned 20, the sky's the limit for this kid.

 

[DuckYeah]

Needs to improve his disposal by foot. Its horrendous. Those F50 entries gave me aids
