Coach #34: Jamie Macmillan - delisted after 167 NM games/46 NM goals - returns as NMFC AFL Footy Ops boss (reporting to L.Kane)

[The Nostradamus]

A good game, but 2 horrible errors in the final quarter cannot be ignored.

That missed tackle on Vickery when he missed a sitter.

Inb4turnstyle.

But we won.

this, turnstiles macmillan his nickname.
Tackling would have to be the easiest thing to do yet he struggles.

Sunday is the day he announces himself as a very good finals player and future skipper.

Good call

Why?

The easiest thing to do, is admit you were wrong.... So very wrong about JMac.

What people don't realise is that Jamie often gets himself into very precarious positions precisely because he has busted a nut to actually aggressively try to stop a scoring drive before they come to fruition. It can look bad if he doesn't stick a tackle (because he has to chase tail) but his leaving his own man and getting involved upfield saved a whole bunch of goals today.

Exactly this!!! Our clubs best gut runner!

I love this guy. Such a smart, disciplined, dependable leader of the team.

You say that, but I'm ignoring them right now. Try and stop me.

You just have the jmac thread open in its own dedicated window waiting for posts, don't you Phillyroo.

And here I was about to send you a msg about how good Garner was... Yeah I do, busted. Quivorir didnt even know that it was his boy Atley's B'Day today.... You wouldn't make that mistake with Taylor would you?

 

[Spitta09]

One of our better players today! Calm and assured with ball in hand. Please don't be injured

 

[Psicosis]

I was a doubter. I'm not anymore, he is close to our most important defender.

 

[nicko74]

Turning into a very good footballer

 

[DesertRoo]

Should be the next captain imo, he hasn't hit his peak yet, most defenders do so in their late 20's.

Spud will be hard to replace, but Jamie is the man for that role down the track.

I funny enough see Ziebell taking spuds role. Strong, great over head and when in space lethal boot.
I think Jmac would have more impact up the ground with his overlap running ability. He's also someone I would trust with their two way running.

 

[scottywiper]

A beautifully balanced footballer. Makes good decisions and uses it well.

Already is, and has been for a while... Welcome aboard mate.

 

[blackshadow]

While not quite BOG yesterday was the one who probably did more team things than anyone else to set up the win - he's turning into a super star. Oozes class and leadership.

 

[Phillyroo]

Man I love this thread!!!

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

I was at the game, this guy was an absolute general. Directed and ordered the backline when he needed to and encouraged when he needed to.

 

[Heaps of fun]

Is now a one touch player.

 

[Harris 10]

Clean, smart and steady.

 

[Roo Beauty]

The Postman delivers again.

Would have probably been our second best behind Cunninton. That pass in the third I think it was into 50 was Wells like. Incredibly footy smart.

The joy that your post brought to my heart can not be put into words.

 

[Wild Bill]

He is a gun!!! Kudos to Philly for picking it early!!
