Bonts just knows how to find the footy though unlike most of those 'freak' players who can do special things but are just so inconsistent. Wouldn't worry about his field kicking either its generally very good.
Yeah no doubt, people just want things too quickly these days. You should see some of the s**t posted about Jake Stringer on the dogs board!
Im sorry, I just don't buy into this. Sure a fair comment just after they have been drafted. But now that we have seen them both in the big league, I think Aish has just as much of a chance to be any bit as good as Bont's and perhaps better.
Oh please, like Aish hasn't missed any tackles this year. First year players are always going to struggle with the physical side of the game, I have absolutely no concerns about Bontempelli's tackling.
Jared Brennan was a spanner who never had the right attitude or work ethic to be a gun AFL Footballer.
Goal was a bit flukey. Clutch goal yes. But flukey as well.
Of course Aish can be as good as Bontempelli or better. We're talking about the player's ceiling. Based off what we've seen so far, Aish's ceiling doesn't look like it'll be nearly as high as Bontempelli's. Bontempelli's absolute best so far has looked much better, although it is in short patches. He is a much rawer player than Aish too and has more improvement left in him. The question now is whether he can get himself to a level where he can play to those standards consistently.
bonts has such a big roof? i personally don't think Aish has as big a roof as him no way
I doubt if Aish kicked a similar goal you'd be calling it flukey.
I get the feeling Bonts will be a nightmare to try and tag. If someone's getting the better of him we can just push him forward where he can be a genuine aerial threat with his height, leap and marking ability probably way too strong for your average tagger.
