Review Dees v Gary Ablett Jr and the Gold Coast Suns - the Good, the Bad & the Fugly

[Black Dynamite]

I like Georgiou, he is strong, seems to rarely get beaten in one on ones, and he plays within his abilities and goes the percentages, unlike Nicho and Terlich he doesn't go for kicks he will never make. At this stage I'd have him fringe 22. At worst provides good depth once Garlo and Hogan are in.

He is something we don't have a lot of, a defender who busts his guts trying to defend.
With Frawley forward and Garland out he is forced to play on bigger and better forwards than he should.
Has been our best defender thus far, but did struggle Sunday.

It clearly says that another deal will be offered to pre-existing members in the original post. It's as though no one can read.

I didn't know where else to put this

Viney's kicking is incredibly awkward though, you have to admit, and there's not a right boot in sight.

No way. He plays the percentages when he's under pressure and kicks to advantage when he's not. I've seen him kick OK off the right too. He's never going to be Darren Jarman like with his foot skills but for the type of player he is, they are rather good.

His kicks look wonky but when he's got time the weight/trajectory and accuracy to forwards is beautiful. In what I think was his first game he was hit Clark with a couple of long beauties.

his legs are made for crushing the souls of opposition not kicking.

- Roosy - think he tried to be a bit too fancy this week... Pedo back forward, Dunn down back when they'd been playing quite well in the opposite place...

Could not figure this out for the life of me either, Dunn was playing smart footy as a forward, and Pedo was playing less dumb as a defender. It was noticeable that when Pedo went into the ruck, which he did more often this week, we looked a better team.

Hasn't seemed that way the last couple of weeks.... crumbles under pressure as well.

But he'll keep improving, I can see him as a reliable back up player.

No doubt he and McDonald were monstered at times and lowered their colours on the day. But how funny was the big GC bloke (cant remember name) lined up Dunn for a bit hip and shoulder, came barreling in and literally bounced off a stationary Dunn, who stood there completely unmoved for a couple of seconds, looked at the guy who was sprawling around in disbelief, then ran off. Funny
stuff, plus shows how strong Dunn is.

Pedo actually had a few taps to advantage when he rucked. Nearly fell out of my seat.

His follow up work was also really good he has been hugely keen to lay big strong tackles this season, My opinion of him is changing every week
