Player Watch Travis Varcoe (Retired 2020)

[Tbone McGraw]

I will start by saying i am not sure why we wanted to pick him up during the off season.

However, he has completely proven me wrong. He may not be the most physical player but he adds so much intelligence and improves our skills greatly.

I am now thinking we may have won that 3 way trade. I definitely prefer him with the ball over Lumamba. Mitch Clark is the big query.

Are most other pies supporters happy with him so far?

Played very well today. Hope he keeps it up.

Was always going to be a good player. Maybe not a great player.
Needs to keep this output up when faced by better opposition.
Agree with the win on the three way though.
Can't see him having a sook about a poster in the change rooms.
Can't see him coming off the ground in tears even after the game was won.

Not just today. I think he has had a very good season.

Definitely an upgrade on Lumamba.

Stoked!

Reminds me of a 2011 Leon Davis when he grabs it so cleanly and delivers it so beautifully of half-back.

I was also doubtful but looks to be giving more effort than i've ever seen from him, key for us today.

He showed some character when the game was in the balance, he slipped over and missed a mark in the D50, but he still got back in, affected the contest and ran away with the ball.

Think he is having a fairly good season, good pick up imo.

I was really dirty on the club for bringing two spuds in Varcoe and Crisp, but boy have they proved me wrong! Varcoe gives us what we desperately needed last year in quality ball use. Really happy with him over Lumumba.

 

[Demonalke]

Yeah, I posted Nooooooo... when we drafted him but far exceeded my expectations so far, seems like a real pro when things go against us and his disposal is nothing like Harry's.

 

[DWil6]

When he gets it he uses it brilliantly. Need to see him get it 20 times a game every game. That would be rewarding.

Clean takes, clever, fast and very good user.

Been excellent for some time now so I'm not 'waiting to see'. Most of this season bar fist few rounds has put in very solid efforts.

 

[Cory]

Having a very good season. Has settled in nicely now.

 

[Soaring Magpie]

When he's in the mood to play, he is very good.
Having a solid year and done the trade justice

 

[Unknown Identity]

Felt weird cheering for him early now feels like part of the family..

Very surprised by his form and happy to be proven wrong as my early thoughts were his best was long behind him.

 

[mocamagic]

Doesn't play in many losing sides Varcoe

Yep. Whenever he has the ball especially in space, I'm expecting a good result from his kick. I'm very confident when he has the ball in his hands.

He's been very good so far this year.

 

[Greening Magic]

I was in the NO camp after watching his insipid season closely last year. Having a much better year this year with us. Hope he keeps it up against the better sides after the bye.

 

[jimmy35]

Clean, good skills. Nice pickup.

 

[Baltimore Jack]

Second best on the ground IMO today, behind Adams

 

[PepperFace]

Varcoe >>>>>> Harry

Clark is a different player...key position. But since he chose the cats i think we have done well

 

[Leviathan Pie]

Started slowly, but has built nicely as the season has gone on - proving me wrong at this stage which is fantastic

 

[rose jam]

Hope he stays fit he's a nice fit into the side, we need more runners

 

[pablo disco bar]

Some more goals would be nice. .I feel safe when he has the ball

 

[cleomenes]

As surprised as anyone that he has succeeded. Very pleased that he has. Likewise Crisp. I expected nothing but we got a huge present.
