Player Watch Edward Allan

[Horaceg]

I like everything I’ve seen tonight, a couple of fumbles but to be expected. Wouldn’t mind seeing him after another preseason and against real opposition. (Sorry Melbourne you suk)

 

[PieBeast]

Much better than his first outing when he was nowhere near ready. If he wants it he'll make it.

 

[LuckyLee]

I’d like to see McInnes being groomed for that role too.

Reef still hasn’t got the running endurance to play midfield. He’d be a liability. And if he doesn’t have it after four seasons, he’s unlikely to ever get it.

he needs to be 40-60 mid/forward. IMO, He has the attributes.

 

[Kappa]

Looks a lot better than bloody Bytel and Ned Long

 

[spartan-magpie]

What a great goal.

 

[The jouneyman]

If it is to be
It's Allan round one for me

 

[swoop42]

Development complete.

Now for stage 2 in 2025.

 

[Pendles!]

A nice bit of encouragement for all of us going into next year. Personally fairly worried about our next in line, so great to see Ed have a good game.

I reckon the penny has dropped for him that to make the grade he needs to get his hands dirty. He has the body to be a Tom Green

I was starting to think we were unluckily to miss out on Weedle. But I'm happy with what Allan showed tonight. I'm a Hine fan so another tick in my book (hopefully)

The Club finally started playing him in correct spot, rather than a wing.

[regpies]

He looked completely out of his depth against Freo. Played well tonight and looks to be a player. Although even North and Eagles would’ve beaten Melb tonight.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

I’m an ED believer now.

 

[AmericanMustard]

Looked a completely different player compared to his game against Fremantle

I guess Melbourne wasn’t really trying and it had to be the lowest intensity game I’ve ever seen but that’s okay

 

[nahnah]

Very good performance i thought, he really did look like a completely different player to his debut

 

[Caztheconquerer]

Thought his game was terrific tonight and loved his kicking to advantage of teammates. Thought he weighted some of those passes brilliantly

 

[Kirby]

He was very good.

It took Jordy a long time too.
Not saying they compare skill-wise, of course, but he can play a forward-mid mix too & develop in that direction.
Oh, and Ed was terrific tonight - good instincts & the height with long arms to handball long.. Really encouraging. Muscle up, Edward!

 

[Pleasedontfail11]

Okay let's trade him straight swap for Petracca. Don't strike me down fat Jesus.
Jk.....

 

[jimmy35]

Showed a bit.

 

[Apex36]

What impressed me was his inside work and vision to clear the ball from congestion tonight. He’s ahead of Fin in that area now. If he can start to accumulate, with another preseason to put on some bulk he could start to become a real weapon in the middle.

 

[Masked Magician]

Follow pendles step by step all of this upcoming pre season.

Think we’ve got something special here

 

[SchuPie]

Much better than his first outing when he was nowhere near ready. If he wants it he'll make it.

He prob would have been poor tonight if it was his first game
AFL is so much quicker than VFL
Tonight he knew what to expect and nearly always took first option and was better w his positioning (although this prob also came from being played as a genuine onballer)
Great game to build on

 

[FAIRANDBALANCED]

There is something to work with. Given his size you'd like him to get stronger and bulk up. Before this game he was no chance in my mind to be the big bodied help for Naicos, after it, he is a chance. Not a big one, but one worth investing in.
