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

Who dis?

 

[Doss]

If Josh Jenkins was still at EFC, who'd be picked between Stuart and Jenkins?

We may not have picked him up in the first place.

 

[Eleven 38]

We have two 24year old key forwards that will hopefully play the next 8-10 years together. Most teams would love to be in that situation, Jenkins is 29.

Still can’t believe the Pies didn’t get him.

should always take a f/s pick imo if they don’t work out u can delist them later.

Murmurs that the Pies were after him the same time as us. An FU later to Collingwood and he is firmly entrenched in our 22

 

[Seagrave_Holmes]

Stewart, Daniher and Stringer are all from the 2012 draft. Who would have thought this would be our future forward line on draft night back then.

Pretty sure the Blues were keen as well. Even sweeter!

Must admit, the prescence he carries, even as skinny (looking) as he is, does not bother him one iota. Despite playing on the 1st/2nd defender he is still managing to make a meaningful impact for us.

Another goal to him yesterday, 14 for the year, and another piece of the forward puzzle to our future success.

Well done James

So far this year he would have to be one of the only existing players (i.e not brought in last trade/draft) that has shown improvement from the previous year. Seems much better in the air, especially on the lead. Also starting to use his big frame as he should be.

 

[BrunoV]

He's become the player we dreamed that he would become when we traded him in for pick 77 or whatever it was.

It's funny what confidence does. Now he's throwing his weight around at ground level and will probably pull down a screamer too.

He's living proof that a player can be a 198cm key forward and can genuinely play small (or as a flanker). His work rate is enormous.

Has he slightly changed his set shot routine? Always did the stutter but now he’s doing a stutter and slight lean to the side as well.

Can almost tell whether he is going to kick it or miss by by the way he leans.

Needs to lift with SMack playing well, will get dropped when Daniher returns

Only 12 key forwards have kicked more goals than him this year. Of any team. Only 5 have more goal assists. Only 12 more score involvements (the same 12 that have more goals). Has only been held goalless once this season. Not to mention he's our leading goal kicker.

Not the same type of player. If Smacks form holds and Daniher comes back you'd expect one of Stringer/Laverde to be dropped.

 

[Old Stuckup]

Daniher surely has to get a few weeks in the reserves before he comes back in. We can judge at that point as its still at least a month away.

Why not? Fantasia did.

 

[Maddogm]

While I have no problem with him doing the stutter step on his set shots, he's been leaving it too late and ending up way too close to the man on the mark. Tonight's kicking into the man on the mark was just a matter of time.

 

[bennyg12]

Everyone laughed when i said he needs to be dropped the bloke is SH:T

 

[Lore]

He's our leading goal kicker this year.

There's a reason why everyone laughed

I think your eye for footy is shit

Because none have ever played football
