Yeh most actually wanted him dropped after a poorer Anzac Day showing. Had a blinder against the Blues. It's consititency we need now from guys like him and Seedsman. The skill is there.Multiple people were calling for him to be dropped after he was quiet against (Adelaide?). Average call! He's been great this year thus far.
Langdon had a few shockers last year but was rarely dropped and that has paid dividends in the longer term. Need to keep giving this kid games now that we've seen what he can do!

You're right, if Scharenberg had any of Ox's stats from this year in his first ten games, 33 touches etc, the Collingwood world would go ballistic, myself included. Lid would be off.I was thinking earlier his body size/shape seems similar to Scharenberg (without looking at their official height/weight ). If Shaz played like this in his 7th AFL game there would be lots of excitement amoungst us all.
In short - Ox looks good
Unfortunately that is the nature of many 'selectors' on this site. One bad game in the AFL and you should be dropped. Conversely, one good game in the VFL and it is instant promotion. I expect our match committee to take in to consideration more than just last week when making these calls.

Why are people not allowed to have doubts on players and need to apologise for that? If you said a player should be delisted its one thing. Simply saying your not sure if he is good enough doesn't warrant an apology. From memory I was ambivalent on Oxley. You can only have so many players in the team and I though he might be one that slips through the cracks. Looked very good against Carlton though. I liked that he played on the wing rather than defence.
Attention all: get on the Ox bandwagon! All aboard!

He plays as a loose man in defence much the same way Heath Shaw would rack them up. No one has made him accountable yet, Shaw struggled when the tag went on him in defence. Let's hope this goes unnoticed.Most surprising thing is his ability to rack up 25-30 touches.. didn't think he had that in him.

Because the club also rated jordan russell and Simon buckleyI heard the club rated super highly an endless amount of times, why didnt I listen?? Why?!
I don't know about that. On Friday night he put the jets on a couple of timesThough Oxley is Taller then Heater but not as fast
Said it quite a bit but reminds me of Shane Morwood. Probably throw in a bit of Gavin Crosisca as well.
He's not been playing half back though has he?
He seems to be playing as a defensive winger, the same role that Lumumba used to play.
Oxley or Scharenberg will end up in midfield. Langdon will stay in defenceYeah can see the morwood comparison but not so much crosisca, who I remember as a much more explosive type. I see maybe a bit of Shane Watson. Clean hands, good kick, seems calm at all times, smooth mover. Defensive side of game is the question mark.
I think we have at least three players battling for the mobile mid-size defender role: Oxley, Scharenberg and Langdon.... I suspect at least one of them will have to be tried forward to try to become a Breust-like matchup nightmare.
