Game Day R3 NAB Cup - Essendon v Sydney

[bedford]

Can't count Mitchell surely.

As far as an 'accumulator' goes, I define it as someone who is able to win his own ball while also being able to run on the outside and receive. That's why they accumulate the ball at high numbers, they can do it in more than just one setting in the game.

As such, Hannebery is definitely a strong-running accumulator IMO. He's a good blend of inside ball winning and outside run. McVeigh and Jack are a similar kinds of players. Kennedy is really just an inside ball winner (an outstanding one at that), wouldn't call him an accumulator by the way I'm defining it.

McVeigh and Jack are so far apart as players, where are they similar ?

 

[S120]

I meant they have similar attributes to Hannebery. I should have made myself clearer.

 

[bedford]

Once again, they are nothing like Hannebery

 

[.Shotties.]

Bedders is right. Grundy is the player we have that's most similar to Hannebery.

Seaby is no good, only needed as a back up

Agreed. What's happened to his jump? In general play he seems unable to get off the ground at all. I'd prefer Pyke of the two. Pyke also can tackle, and, geez, he must hurt blokes when he does.

I guess that ankle injury has pretty much crippled his athleticism and his jump, he is useless when the ball hits the ground. Just based on that i would have Pyke ahead of Seaby
