Player Watch #38: Tristan Xerri

[roos_fanatic08]

Need a big year. Was hoping he’d have more influence this year.

Still a long long way off and I’m still not sure where his best position is. Heisn’t athletic enough to be an undersize ruckman.

I think he’s best position is full forward. he’s got a good set of hands and low center of gravity.

cant see him getting in front of brown or Larkey thou.

He's the same height as Todd.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

He's the same height as Todd.

I know he is listed at 201cm but he’d be lucky to be 198cm. I’ve seen him a doing drills with Durdin and they are about spot on the same height

I get the John Baird vibes with Xerri.

Think he’s going to be a Very solid footballer, just not AFL quality.

Hope I’m wrong.

He'd want to show a fair bit more in 2020. I like his aggression but want to see more than that.

Must be pretty hard for Xerri's motivation to play seniors with the re-emergence of Goldy to top form. Barring injury, chances of senior selection probably pretty slim. Improving the Forward aspect of his game is probably his best option, although candidates for that position also not short in numbers, hope he gets a taste at least this coming season.

[The acurate one]

Righto, we're very happy with his progress, he's doing a lot of work on his flexibility as in he's a bit steel like. Working very hard with Minson.

Is seen as Goldie's replacement and yes we know Xerri is a slow burn.

Looked the real deal the other day.

Any idea if he's grown or is it just an optical illusion?

well he's listed at 201cm's which in my book is a good size especially as he's an aggressive fella.

Yeh he was drafted at 201 I think but looked big even amongst AFL listed company at the season launch.

This is great! I’ve been curious about that! I like his aggressive nature and natural footy style- I’m a big fan.

Thanks for the update!!

I can answer this knackers.

Saw him next to Goldie and the kid looks 203 if not 204.

[Val Keating]

Did some nice things. Don’t mind him

 

[GunSchwatta]

Plays round 1.

He deserves it.

Instead of who?

 

[GunSchwatta]

Instead of who?

I don't care.

 

[giantroo]

 

[GunSchwatta]

He can play in Garner's spot. He doesn't kmow what a footy looks like unless has VB on it.

Xerri can provide ruck relief and a target.

Thomas to rove him

Too tall with Brown and Larkey up there already

 

[GunSchwatta]

Too tall with Brown and Larkey up there already

Yeah i know, i know......you are correct.

I just hate it when players miss games to "structure" when deserving (Xerri is), yet other continually underperforming clowns get picked because our list is badly exposed.

 

[Harris 10]

If Xerri continues improving we’ll be able to trade him off for another inside mid that we don’t need.
