Delisted #17: James Stewart - Will be delisted despite having a year on his contract - 24/8

[Donakebab]

Who dis?

 

[Loonerty]

Great game. Has to stay in IMO.

 

[VelvetSledge]

Absolute gun. JET

 

[Killer_Mike]

Would be very surprised if they drop him!

He's basically doing what Langford was doing but without the midfield time!

I believe he's got quite a bit of improvement to come! by the end of next year people will be wondering how we got him for pick 77!

 

[Vander18]

Three tall structure looks good but don't understand how we still find ourselves kicking long to green or tipper one out so often.

Smaller guys can get forward quicker when everyone moves up the ground.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

Seriously wtf? Yes please

 

[Kakkle]

You can't ask for a better debut for the club. Very easy on the eye, presents nicely, and rarely wastes a disposal.

He also has no respect for Luke Darcy.

Beautiful

 

[Old Campaigner]

what did he say to darcy?

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

That goal out the back from the Tippa pass was so good.

 

[Loonerty]

 

[maskmcgee]

A forward who can kick straight!

Combined with Daniher for 8 goals.

Green, Tippa and Fantasia combined for 8.

Dare I say we may have a working forward line for the first time since 2008?

Just need to fix the midfield and we are pretty much golden.

 

[CBombers17]

Frees Hooker up to swing baby **** yeah!!!

 

[Rack Watts]

Very impressed.

 

[Doss]

He did well. Very well.

Stays in.

 

[dnbassador]

How strong is this bloke! Going to be hard to contain him and hooker in the forward line!

 

[Darealrath]

Looked like he was too quick for Taylor early and then too tall for whoever the **** was on him after that.

Could be a really tricky matchup for the opposition.

 

[Atavistic]

Frees Hooker up to swing baby **** yeah!!!

 

[vast]

Yep liked what I saw. Frees up hooker to me a swingman.

Yeah baby!

 

[daz17]

Great kick as well. Keep him in.

 

[Rack Watts]

His agility and ability below his knees are what surprised me. Might become what McKernan could have been?

 

[Vindicater]

Frees Hooker up to swing baby **** yeah!!!

Nope.

Our forward line is now ****ing lethal.

Hooker plays deep forward and they need a monster KP to counter him.

Daniher and Stewart both roam up and down the ground doing whatever the **** they want because teams can't match them due to having to deal with Hooker in the goal square.

Put Fantasia and Walla in the mix and it is a nightmare for defenders.

Imagine if we get someone better than Green to fill that sixth spot.

Seriouslly, if we can hit the draft hard for some midfielders we are a contender with that forwardline.

 

[Bombermania]

I think he stays in, allows us to use Hooker at both ends like he was tonight, three strong marking forwards with three small forwards.

Will be interesting to see how the club manages this forward six and its other three possible forwards in Francis, LaVarde and Langford.

 

[Capt Hindsight]

Very happy he has been able to have a solid first up game for the club.
Being a third tall is Stewart's natural position as he either gets a defender that isn't athletic or tall enough to match him.
He showed he was a nice kick for goal nailing all three chances, this is backed up by his NEAFL record last year of 47.22.
Allowing the coaches to have some flexibility in using Hooker makes us a much more dangerous side.
Hopefully he can continue on from last night and cement a spot in the best 22 each week.

Also that interview with Luke Darcy after the game lol.

This! He could be a seriously tricky matchup as the 3rd tall. I don't think he has the strength to compete with a legit KPD as a second tall, but he could seriously cause headaches as the 3rd tall.
