He was always going to come under a lot more scrutiny from opposition defenders in what is his second year. TBH much of the results are to this stage not unexpected. In terms of the goal kicking, yes he should in training revisit cognitively what works for him with whatever routine he is...

Yep - at the end of the day Collingwood still thought Amiss was worth putting Darcy Moore on him. I know it is probably an unpopular opinion but if I was the Freo Coach I would back Amiss to work through his kicking issues, and would also definitely back him to get more opportunities (and to...

Yes but I think that is because as noobermensch said it is draft for centre square midfielders and in terms of the talent that is where it sits if you line people up in terms of potential. However Kako (despite not being as reliable a kick as everyone would like and question the distance on the...

I actually think (and not to write off Kako as I think he is pretty good as well) Berry is the best fit for our forward line - he has less tricks than Kako and I think he has less potential than many others in that 15-20 bracket, but his one very good trick is getting behind defensive lines...

A really good video by noobermensch - I agree with a lot of it; and his 11-20 I think is worth listening to:

He is a good kick but is not laying enough tackles or pressure yet - he is still learning his craft to be honest. One of those goals was from a touchy free kick and the other was a lace out lead. If he was kicking 4-5 goals a week then you could justify it on goal kicking only, but until then...

Just woke up from sleeping and so (like the coaches) looked at the key stat..... 5 tackles for Cooper Simpson 5 tackles Will Brodie 2 tackles Neil Erasmus, Liam Reidy, Karl Worner 1 tackle Sam Sturt, Matthew Taberner, Patrick Voss But what was the quality of those tackles?

Is it? I thought there was SSS+ and all that above that - isn't that how anime or marvel comic rankings go?

As I said, there wasn't much that stood out that much about Warner, and you certainly would have picked Liam Henry over Warner every day of the week back then (and then some) based on output. His profile might have well been the same as Greg Clark's (from Subiaco) in his draft year. Fyfe was...

The next Curtin, Cody Curtin (197cm Defender), will be a player to watch in 2025 if going by the states 18 versus 21 today - defended well against Scaife and Tregenza. Maybe is more athletic than his brother? Gerryn, Allan and Champion also had good games.

Brodie hasn't got 30 every week though - in fact he has only got 30 twice out of six games (and to be fair he has played Wing at times this year as has Erasmus so that may have factored into lower possessions in some of those games); Erasmus is the one that has had over 30 every game this year...

People are forgetting he was also an awful kick as a draftee - every other kick was likely to be a clanger. The only thing he had going for him at the time was size and okay speed. It was why he didn't go very high.

meh - having a mix of passionate people and gun for hires as a winning combination goes all the way back to Julius Caesar's time (probably older even).

This one was a funny video - I really liked some of his midfield play and some great tackling and lightning quick handballs which was honestly better than I thought he could do. But his kicking at times was putrid.

Do you mean JOM in the second last sentence?
