List Mgmt. Welcome Campbell Chesser (Pick 14, 2021 National Draft)

[Happy Mastenator]

Seemed to be one of the very few having a dip early when we were way off it. Like the kid.

Again, you can see the confidence he is starting to play with. He is using some of that explosive speed we have all heard about. Even something as simple as running around the back and getting a handball in the back pocket, shows he is confident. Last year and the first 6-7 weeks of this year he would have jogged to the next contest, now he wants the pill in his hand.

Needs to continue to work below his knees, if he can get rid of the 1 or 2 fumbles per game it will again make him better.

Showed massive upside today.

 

[new breed]

Good pace helps any team , I think he has a future keeps improving.

 

[eaglevision]

When he took off down the wing, had two bounces then lowered the eyes and hit up a target is what I was hoping to get from him. Building nicely.

 

[Jez1974]

Chesser 3rd best on ground seems to be one of few playing with intent having a great game. What do you have to say jez

Agree with Gerard healy. Loved his comments
3rd best in 99 point belting he was good

 

[KBLT]

I like to think he whispered, "You're not Harley, mate," as he got up.

 

[Lia]

A good couple of weeks. Still a huge work in progress but the pieces are coming together and that run down tackle was superb.

Starts with a small slip as he has to change directions as well. Brilliant that one, sustained effort.

 

[bombard]

Boy has some wheels on him

 

[FKASC]

Seems to have a very high top speed but not so much explosive acceleration. Feels like you need the latter much more than the former in the modern game, but maybe something he can work on with training

He does seem to lack the power to break tackles and get free in tight. But I’d also put Kelly in that category as well, without the top end speed.

I think he showed a lot in the last couple of weeks to suggest he could be a very good player. Decent inside and damaging on the outside. Could see him being the handball receive out of stoppage.

 

[eagles rule]

Good to see the improvements coming he had a good crack yesterday ..The running bounce down the wing we need to see more of Chess taking the game on and also enjoyed his great run down tackle ..

He gave Soligo (who is a speed merchant) maybe 3 or 4 meter moving head start, with Chesser starting from still, and caught him within 30m. I think that's explosive enough.

Out in the open over 30 metres

He’s not a player who is (yet???) able to drive out of congestion with his legs. He doesn’t have the explosive power over 2-3 steps to release himself.

You can still carve an impressive career without that imo, and we arguable already have a few with Reid, Hewett and Yeo.

The comment is valid, but I think isn’t really going to have too much of a negative effect on our midfield post Yeo/Kelly.

Jaysus. That's a great chase down coming from a long way back.

Plenty of other players would have dropped the head.

 

[FKASC]

Soligo didn’t finish top 10 in the sprint test at the combine (10th place was basically 3 sec) and is sub-180 cm, so I doubt he’s that fast in a straight line. is certainly agile.

As mentioned, it’s the ability to break through and get separation out of stoppages that is more important for mids, but if he’s playing HBF or wing permanently his top speed will obv be useful.

 

[Matera92]

That chase was outstanding.

Off balance, giving up 5m on a very quick bloke and he just put the foot down and closed the gap in seconds.

Criminally underrated the athletic profile required to do that.

 

[Avalor]

And did you notice the plodder who made no effort at chasing at all - snail pace Sheed, that's right! You guessed it.
I am so sick of this guy.

Looked like he was climbing Everest while doing it too.

Also won the player trademark award at the club for that round.

 

[Ambrose Burnside]

The chase down tackle plus the bounce handpass gives him twice as many highlights as Simon Tunbridge

Im sure he used that bounce handpass a couple of times last week as well.

He did. I've blanked out most of the Adelaide game so didn't realise he used it then too.
