Delisted #19: Shaun Edwards - Rookied by Sydney, now retired from AFL - 22/9

[Zach Package]

just watching the int. rules game, couple of very impressive chases from Shaun, looks to have very good technique in his chasing down from behind

 

[Bomberblitzer]

If Bomber and the senior guys can encourage him to work hard over the pre-season and do what we need him to do, he'll be a gun.

Hope it's not the foot skill of Fyfe!

It's not like Fyfe shanks every kick.

Sensational player. Ordinary kick. I think that this west coast supporter that posted this thread is a little harsh but he has some strong points.

Most of the people in that thread quite rightly bag the OP.

Fyfe's kicking is inconsistent, not ordinary. He shanks them just as often as he delivers a beautiful bullet pass.

If he shanks them just as often as he delivers a beautiful bulletin pass wouldn't that make his kicking ordinary? Sometimes good, sometimes bad?

Ordinary is generally used for people who aren't capable of kicking well.

You mean like poor..? Was his disposal in the GF good, ordinary or poor?

I could've sworn that this thread was titled 'Player Watch - Shaun Edwards', not 'Player Watch - Nat Fyfe'.

Watching a replay of the International Rules series, Adam Goodes is commentating and jizzes his pants everytime they bring up "Shaunny Edwards".

I'm just glad old George Washington didn't write that Edwards has a large nose like Pav or he walks oddly like Ross Lyon. We would have had more than just one Freo troll hitting this post!

So clever, you had to say it twice.

With a 40 minute gap.

Guys can we keep this thread about Nat Fyfe thanks.

 

[Doss]

I know Fyfe has an uncanny resemblance to Hird, but seriously guys.

 

[daffo]

Happy with his effort in the international rules game.

Translation: One of the small handful of players that wasnt completely rubbish.
Hell that team was so bad, I'd almost give Leroy a pass mark just for that one ferocious tackle he laid..

Alright back on topic, cant wait to see Shaun "The Fyfe" Edwards play next year!

 

[rines]

I think Edwards (along with a lot of the young guys at both GWS and GC) is a guy that will surprise some.. I think if he had been drafted by another club, in normal circumstances, then he would be viewed far more favourably.. it is hard to shine in a team full of young stars and a team getting thrashed every week..

I acknowledge he has work to put it.. but from even a few snippets in the IR series.. you start to see why he was so highly rated as a junior.. pace to burn and appears to have clean hands..

Maybe in the EKav bracket.. not ready yet but still showing promise to 'make it'.. I would imagine that if we had taken Edwards with our first round pick.. there would be a heap of excitement and buzz and expectation..

Realistically we need Edwards to make it as a midfielder - its a chance from what i've seen.

Looks like he has been thrown all over the place at GWS, sometimes back, sometimes forward, in the Ireland game he was back, forward & midfield at the end.
really Bomber just needs to find a position for him and let him develop, hopefully wing.
