Review Round 8: Dees v the Dogs - the Good, the Bad & the Fugly

[Klyntonius]

Matt Jones didn't beat Murphy.

Until Jones was subbed off, Murphy had 11 possessions and no impact. That's a win for us.

Matt Jones didn't beat Murphy.

Kept him very quiet until he went off hurt though which limited his run/setting up plays for the Dogs.

Agree. Most coaches would surely call that a win given the impact Murphy usually has when the Dogs are playing well.

 

[Tulip]

Second hatchet Jones on Murphy job in two years.

Decided to take a holiday on Mexico , woke up next to a Canadian girl then read the result , I told her that she got me too attention ... She has nooooo idea

There really is no better day than the Dees winning / getting a root combo. Well played ng.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

Brayshaw is starting to make things happen with ball in hand now too, which is exciting.

Reminded me of Trenners in his first year or two.

 

[Theseventhhamster]

Yeah like a bigger version.

 

[Tulip]

I think he's having a far bigger impact through the middle than Trengove ever did.

Mate, prostitutes dont care if you get it up or not only if you pay the cash..

ZING X2!!

Lol, Trenners was much better then Brayshaw in his first - he averaged 20 touches his first year, that was Brays first 20 touch game.

Tren was as good a tackler, fitter, had better skills and kicked a goal every two games.

And I'm pretty sure Trenners is 186 where Bray is 187... hardly bigger.

I think they're pretty similar, but maybe the 4 or 5 intervening and cumulative years of s**t has me leaning towards Brayshaw. Brayshaw looks a quality player with neat skills and footy nous, but what's surprised me most is how well he's spread. Knows where to run and is probably one of our best at providing a decent option. Also helps that he's got cracking hands and decent pace so he can mark with someone up his clacker. Going to be so disappointed when he turns out to be hopeless.

Mr.Stat sheet doesn't tell the whole story though does he?, cmon TPM, surely i have taught you this?

We are playing a contested/tackle brand now days and Gus' has been more impressive than Trengove's first year. Pretty sure their weren't subs in JT's first year either. On top of that he's a maniac at a contested ball and has a massive appetite for defensive work.

Cmon on mate, Cmon!

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

If you think Brayshaw has played better than Trengove (or Scully for that matter) did in his first 8 games, you are out of your mind.

Boys, I've been super impressed with Brayshaw - he's been great.

I think you're letting the memory of crippled Trenners get in the way of gun Trenners in his first two years - was hard as nails, very strong throuh the hips, classy and knew where the goals were.

Outta my mind then.

 

[Klyntonius]

Brayshaw hasn't completed his first year yet, plenty left to come. Does remind me of young Trenners though.

In the words of Ronald Dale:

Show me (contested) possessions (averages and tackle averages) and ill shut up!

 

[Blackas87]

People always forget the past, Trenners was playing better in his first year.

 

[Blackas87]

In the words of Ronald Dale:

Show me (contested) possessions (averages and tackle averages) and ill shut up!

Trengove, 7.5 contested, 4.17 tackles.
Brayshaw, 4.88 contested, 5.13 tackles.

first year averages.
