He’s not competitive enough. Neither is his brother, they rely on their physical attributes - only Ben is less talented.
I don’t want to pile on here but really struggle to get around a player who left his team, put handout for money and then seemingly puts in so little effort, cant be trusted...
For some time now his kicking has been tidy in the VFL. The issue for mine has been his running, looks like 3-4 preseasons are now starting to kick in after basically missing his first year and under 18s year to injury.
Still very curious about his GPS numbers as he is still often on his...
I saw that free kick, happened right in front of the umpire. I honestly do not understand how that umpire awarded a free kick. Like if we are serious about protecting players heads and necks, rewarding a player kamikaze-ing into someone head first to get a free is a total no-no.
Watson will...
I was devo when he left. But in hindsight who could blame him.
Adam Saad was the one who pissed me off the most, but can’t even blame him because he could see we didn’t have our sh!t together… and he was right (just made an error by going to an equal rabble).
Port had a rough time with the umps, but they were also absolute dogsh!t. Watching that game live they have no one to blame but themselves.
If there one thing us Essendon fans are good at it’s seeing teams play sh!thouse footy… and they were sh!thouse
I also wanted Xavier Taylor, although probably at the expense of Sharp if we had taken him.
In any case, this young lad looks amazing. Thrilled to have him. Looks to have a level head on his shoulders.
He even tried to jynx it by going super early on declaring Essendon the winner. I don’t know why they let’s super fans who are invested in one of the teams playing commentate the games. They usually over compensate or lose objectivity
Those errors he is prone to though absolutely kill us. Like that switch where he missed his target by 30 meters just have to stop.
Agree he looked more explosive today.
