I can’t give up on him until I see him get a crack in the ones again.
Another useless stat as you need to compare that to every other player in the same season. You are the most pathetic stats man I’ve ever known. Don’t take it personally, just take my advice. I’m not a Cumberland man, but I don’t quote rubbish to make a case against him. Lift your game.
Was Andrews was the blonde haired mid, because he barely touched it when he was on Cumberland, I specifically watched and noted that contest. He may got off the chain a bit on as the match went on, but not necessarily on Cumberland. Go and watch the first Q again, Cumberland was between he and the ball the whole match up.
He has improved on that a lot. People are hyper-critical of everything he does because we are all watching him like a hawk. One mistake and it's the same old Cumberland. Is he perfect, far from it, but he is far from what you have described above.
That is a rubbish stat!
how can you say he doesn't chase?
Watched him at MCG last year I think it was against WC and he didn’t that day. Not saying always but he can stop chasing when things don’t go his way. Unlike me I didn’t chase even when things were going well.
I think we all went through that phase.
No I haven’t. Don’t get me wrong. I am in the give him a game camp. Because I think our club has had too much bias towards players with limited skill over other attributes and I think we lack polish and being dangerous with the ball. I get the opposite view but I would give him a go over some others. Last chances though this year. Plus you just know once Prestia, Short, TT, hopper, Grimes are back there will be limited opportunities for a lot of young guys until August when we are clearly out of finals.
He could have kicked goals last week, 0.3 but all three with a bit of luck could have been goals. Kicked 2 two weeks before (should have been 3 but for Archie Thompson taking the advantage and playing on in the goal square). He also played midfield and much further up the ground this week. Created goals/assists as well in both matches.
As we should with all our players, he's not there yet but who knows what he might become if the penny drops, very few get a chance at playing in the AFL I hope he shows us he has what it takes but no charity games.
I'm not so sure that will be the case, Yze isnt stupid, he knows we have to get games under the belts of our kids if he wants to have a job beyond the next year or two.
