It is amazing how impressed some people are by uncontested chest marks.

only uncontested because no-one can keep up with him

Would be Richmonds Best Forward right now

Would be Richmonds Best Forward right now

That would be pretty difficult given Tom Lynch would be Melbourne's best forward right now.

Rayner was fantastic tonight back in his third tall role. Just got highlighted on Fox. 2 goals, six score involvements and left a heap of Pies players hurt as he smashed contests. Third tall is his role, watch him flourish come finals!

Will do.

Did Rayner run over Dansters dog?

 

[Toffee Lion]

Thought he was great tonight, once again he plays his best footy when we're two tall and he acts a pressure high forward that can pinch hit in the middle.

He won't ever be a 30 touch player but he is a solid line breaker around the contest and a decent hit up forward.

If get gets his 13-16 touches, gets a goal or two and some decent score involvements, job done for me.

Geez the bar is set low for this former no 1 pick

Lucky footy isn't played on paper because he'd look very average.

had a huge impact on the game last night and the commentators looked at his stats and he had 2 touches.

His square up on Murphy was the highlight.

Yeah when I saw that I yelled out BUMP HIM and cheered when he did, then to get the ball back and kick the goal was huge.

But taking out Murphy - the softest hardman I can recall was brilliant.

Murphy is such a serial flopper and stager, that it's so hard to work out whether he's actually hurt, and whether anyone actually hit him.

Channelling Dangerfield who would be carried off by trainers and run back on 5 minutes later.

I noticed with Rayner last night with that goal (and another one from one of their other small forwards), is that they ran towards the goal when they had the ball in the F50. It caught the defenders off guard and created goals.

Most small forwards retreat backwards when they get the ball in order to give themselves space before having a shot at goal. Defenders anticipate that retreat and react accordingly. They will usually corral the player with the ball as they retreat.

In that clip, Rayner instead bursts towards the goal in order to find the space he needed to get a shot off - and it caught the defenders off guard. They weren't expecting it.

Good pickup. Fletcher I think was the other. Caught them all by surprise

 

[danster168]

Meteoric Rise 5 goals and the match winner on one leg.

How's Rayner going? Another 14 touched 1 goal effort. Remember when you out Rayner above Fritsch and ahead of LDU

 

[Hollow Knight]

Where did the Fritsch talk come from?

I thought that that Charlie Springo or whatever his name is was being used as the benchmark? How's he travelling?

Well done Fritsch. 4 contested sherrins, career high. 2 score involvements outside his own shots at goal - a record for him.

 

[Milux]

One thing that has become clear with Rayner is he needs to work on his first touch. He seems to hit the sherrin at pace but fumbles the ball so often. If he can fix this his game will improve majorly. He needs to spend a pre season with Lachie to get his hands sorted.

 

[Elixuh]

danster168 what are your KPIs for young Rayner this finals series?

 

[Milux]

Some more of this.

he needs to kicked 4-5 goals in both finals to make up the lost ground.

 

[haveago]

Cam is a footballer, not an athlete. Can struggle with the full ground press running requirements.

However he is tough as teak, powerful, smart, an excellent kick on both sides, strong hands and can jump on heads.
He can and does make things out of nothing and brings other players into it with his quick hands, selflessness and generally good decision making.

The ACL obviously has set him back but I have no doubt he will become a topliner in the next few seasons.

Need a welfare check on Danster.
