Kyle Reimers- A Knob or is he worth it?

[Andronicus]

Think what you want of him, but all those carlton fans having a cry.......Robinson and Betts have far more punchable heads than reimers.

 

[Ambrosia]

Yep, players are never delisted because of off-field problems
I'm sure the other players at Essendon love playing with a selfish, soft knob.

He doesn't have off field problems that's my point. Name one player with who has been delisted because he's a knob on the field.

I really want to hear thoughts from Bomber fans on Alwyn Davey???

Goes missing every game for me...always manages to get junk time goals and keep his spot...delisted??

i like reimers. the only thing cooler than him is his tattoos.

Worst tattoos ever!

But they can play.

My OP was more to do with being very soft at the contest but oh, so tough in the face of the opposition. Yes Robinson can get carried away but nobody questions his attack at the footy.

 

[reimersworstguy]

is it just me, or does he strike anyone else as a neo-nazi of sorts?

 

[ROYAL EAGLE]

Pretty much this. But he has had a less than perfect upbringing.



That's the article. Kind of shows where he's come from.

I reckon he'd be a chop, but he definitely has x-factor. If Hird et al can bring it out in him and stop the selfishness he could be a heck of a player.

Could go either way.

Agree with every thing you said.

He's a Peel kid, and alot of kids coming from that club are knobs, to be honest.

Peel seem to produce talented but wayward kids.

Seems kind of strange. What gives you that impression?

 

[whats_at_stake]

Reimers has a lot of talent and there was this great article in the Age recently talking about how he wanted to become a team player and change other people's perceptions of him. He is only young next year he should become a lot more consistent with another year of development in him.

Just have a look at the kicks he does in this video. Set up a series of goals with brilliant passes. He is a brilliant kicker of the ball and should be playing a bit higher then he does (although Crameri being out may have resulted in him playing deeper on Sunday).

Not worth a cracker in a pressure game. Shows talent in games of little note. And an absolute knob

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Not content with the one bad tatto, he decided to stock up, and get as many shit tattoo's as possible.

Seriously, it's like someone keeps tattooing him in his sleep as a prank. You'd think that if you had 4 or 5 tatt's at least one of them would be decent.

 

[Butler]

My bet is he could walk into town (Bunbury) and stick his p#$k into just about any chick who he likes. Really everyone puts shit on people who make it.

You fail to realize his reputation here and i know of chicks that have turned him down because of how much of a prick he is. Now whether or not you choose to believe me or not, doesn't bother me. I'm just simply stating what i know.

He has also done the good old "do you know who i am?" when a chick declined his facebook request lol

Anyways, im sure he can change and he may have already. Can do some very good things on the football field but he is also a bit of a pop up in the goal square specialist. imo.

 

[Electric Blue]

Bogan Knob........


and dont get me started on "Brave" Alwyn Davey.

 

[Darealrath]

Has a lot of talent but hasn't quite put it together consistently yet. Hope we persist with him because he could he could have a bit of a break out 2012.

 

[DermiesLuvChild]

Sounds like he appears to be on the right track (Age article). He has realised his 'problems' & is trying to do something about it.
We may still see the best of him yet. I hope so because outside of footy his options could be limited.

 

[gO_bOmBeRz]

I heard a rumour that Hirdy told him to stop wearing the fluro boots because he's not that good...

Probably just banter at the game from saturday

Good player, but such a moron.

If you read the article you'll know that he made his own decision to stop wearing them so he can't be perceived as a selfish and self oriented player.

 

[8732watitdo]

He's a knob with talent, but from what I've seen, not worth it.

 

[LeeARM]

I was ready to give up on him last year but he's been a lot better this year.
He still has some aggression issues and can still be a bit selfish at times but he's still much better than he used to be.
I think as Essendon's midfield and forward structure gets better he'll be a better player because when the team plays well, he tends to play well.

Is he a knob? Probably. He does have one of the worst collection of tattoos I've ever seen.

 

[Strike Swiftly]

Massive knob. Don't rate him at all.

 

[tribulations]

ha! is he really from peel? all of a sudden it all makes sense...

imo he lacks emotional IQ but maybe Hird can turn him around, eventually.

he has youth on his side, but at the same time it seems to be the same factor working against him.

 

[Dangas]

Reimers should be expelled from the AFL based on his tattoos alone.

Just waiting for the right moment to create your alias?

 

[puntnut]

A poor mans Dayne Beams.

 

[BluesMan]

Yep knob-jockey.

Can play, but not to the bombers game style, thats why he finds himself in and out. Needs a clippin' round the ears.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

He could be the next Ballantyne but he's not that talented. Maybe a Schneider if he gets his head out of his a#se.
