Player Watch #40: Eddie Ford

[DesertRoo]

Slowly morphing into Virat Kohli.

Eddie Bollywood?

 

[Frank Thring]

I asked Eddie how far off he was from resuming with the main group and he said 4 to 5 weeks

 

[ferball]

Slowly morphing into Virat Kohli.

If he's half as good at footy as Kohli is at cricket we're on a winner.

 

[RHLK]

Slowly morphing into Virat Kohli.

Next step, the full, newly-popularised-by-Virat, 'Aurangzeb' beard:



Although, after Ayodhya, even that beard might be seditious.....

 

[tazaa]

When's he expected to return?

 

[DunderHead]

When's he expected to return?

Might get minutes in the St Kida game. he's expected to be one of the 40 available players for round 1. But you'd assume he'll be playing VFL to start the year.

[JGreezy]

He's a best 22 player, when fit. I'm not sure who makes way for him. I wouldn't think Duursma, so it's Stevo, Tucker or Curtis.

 

[Psicosis]

He's a best 22 player, when fit. I'm not sure who makes way for him. I wouldn't think Duursma, so it's Stevo, Tucker or Curtis.

Think Stepho is a lock . Is doing the team things better then any of our forwards this preseason.

This is my best North forward line going forward:

HF:Simpkin Zurhaar Duursma
F: Ford Larkey Stephenson

I/S: Curtis

 

[Sticksphat]

This is my best North forward line going forward:

HF:Simpkin Zurhaar Ford
F: Ford Larkey Stephenson

I/S: Curtis

Asking a lot of the boy.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

I’d rather him compared to Tucker. Far more dynamic and has a lot more X-Factor.

 

[Ligma]

He is too good for vfl now.

PRIMED FOR ROUND 1

 

[shinboner magic]

Should be rotating between wing / half forward - this guy seems to do his job everytime

 

[gustaaf]

He is too good for vfl now.

PRIMED FOR ROUND 1

And very importantly for a club like North, he hits the scoreboard. I hope he makes another statement in the VFL practice game today that he is a must for R1.

 

[Amicalola]

How did he go in the VFL today?

 

[jay317]

Best on from the sources

 

[Big_H]

Was very good in the first half but copped a big hit at the start of the third and didn’t reappear. Hope he’s ok.

 

[Ligma]

Brb gonna jump

 

[Phillyroo]

He is fine, took him off as a precaution only. Hopefully he jags a spot for rd 1

 

[Amicalola]

Hope he's okay!!! Had some really tough luck so far this year.

 

[kool kangas]

I’d rather him compared to Tucker. Far more dynamic and has a lot more X-Factor.

ld rather him for Curtis... More consistant than Curtis..

 

[czero]

I mean I don't know who is in and who is out round one, but THIS is why our ladder climb is starting even with the youngest team in the comp. GENUINE pressure for spots.

We now have this across the forward line, the half forward line, the midfield, the half back line.

All we need now is for the development of those key defenders we have drafted and traded for, to create that situation for our last line of defence.

 

[zoomba23]

Probably need him more than most against their ball movement juggernaut
