is luke shuey serious?

[Goldfish]

You seriously under-rate Priddis' speed over the ground

Priddis could have been standing in front of him and not caught him...

 

[SpaceClef]

That was the highlight of his game for me.

None of our other midfielders could have caught him except for Yeo.

I don't remember this at the match. Could someone let me know when it occurred so I can check the replay? Ta

4th quarter, about the middle from memory, just look in the match video thingy for free kicks and find one for Shuey.

That would have been my normal approach, but being Shuey I might've been searching all night.

There's only one Shuey the ******* Shoe

West Coast: LeCras, Masten, Shuey, McGovern, Gaff
Melbourne: Vince, Jones, Howe, Bail, Cross

So I think we've established that Shuey was indeed serious.

 

[Quinz]

He's been our best player since this thread was created.

 

[WCEswift]

He just seems to back his pace more and just runs off the tagger, dunno how he does it but it seems to work for him?

that question mark makes it read like Brick Tamland

 

[Chris_6678]

He had a few hammie concerns early on the year so it has been good to see him over them and impacting again with his pace.

You underestimate the power of the locks

This could be a big week for shuey, a lot of good young midfielders in gc

This thread did not need seven pages. There is a simple guide.

Luke Shuey serious:

Luke Shuey not serious:

I hope that clears things up.

I like Shuey as a player. Provided he gets a good run with injuries & gets told a few home truths about workrate he can go to a J Selwood level. Can accumulate quickly when he's on & has great goal sense.

He's only what 22-23??

Closer attributes to G. Ablett.

id also add football intelligence in there too, but wouldnt disregard the others.
watched him stand outside packs and just watched like a cameraman on the weekend.

the most alarming this is you can teach skills and you can improve attitude,
but footy nous is something that you either have or you dont,
and even if he does have some of it, he's had enough years in the system to show enough good signs

Isn't that what all those senior and assistant coaches are there to teach?

Sure some young footballers have good instincts but in the AFL there are game plans and structures to be followed. Every team practices stoppage play how to spread. So ability to learn and do your role in the structure is just as important than having poise and reading the play.

I'd suggest that Chris Judd knows more about football now than he did as a 18 / 22 year old.

I rate Shuey as an A grade mid, not A+ and not elite. He's shows signs but not long term consistency, he does pick up minor injuries than don't help.

If another mid drew the oppositions #1 tag and Shuey had a decent run with his fitness I could see him going up a level or two. He just like a club needs 'the planets to align' to play his best football.

Josh loves his expansion teams!

Needs a change of title!

"Is Luke Shuey seriously good?"

 

[EagleCanival]

Was certainly in our best 3 today.... AGAIN

 

[EagleEgo]

I don't see any problem. He is required!

 

[Jootube]

Luke Shuey is statistically our best player. RE: http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-09-05/the-inquirer-cream-awards-night

Great to finally see it in writing.

P.S. Elliot Yeo named as our most improved player for the year too.

Bonus points if you find the Eagles-related mistake in the article!

 

[eaglesfan99]

We didn'tplay north in rd 2.

 

[Underdog]

I remember when all the Bigfooty sooks wanted to trade Shuey when it was painfully obvious he was/is our most important midfielder.

chris judd also had a brownlow medal after about the same amount of years in the system,
i didnt say shuey was a lost hope and he certainly shows his potential at times,
but if you read underneath the line you bolded in my quote
"and even if he does have some of it, he's had enough years in the system to show enough good signs"

my beef is that in his time he hasnt showed enough consistency to ever see him becoming an elite midfielder.
maybe i overestimate his talent, but i cant see him ever becoming a top 10 mid in the comp even at his peak
