Player Watch #7: Zane Duursma - staying at North in 2026

If colby starts to go into contests without shitting his pants then yes, he’ll prove me wrong

I said celebrated, Duck.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

not a second ruck?

I hope not. I think Trembath and Darling will have that role covered.

We’ve constantly made the mistake of being too tall and too slow over the journey.

We also still have mids that can’t run out games properly (Wardlaw, Powell, LDU), so having extra run on the bench only supports midfield rotations and the half forward pressure.

I said celebrated, Duck.

Depends on the location of the said celebrations lol.

I adore Colby, he was just about our best player post the mid season bye. I didn't spot too many cowardly displays/situations after his chat with Clarko in June.

Thanks for that Seymour Skinner. True to form, as always ...

Tbf, I do remember Kerch getting heavily smashed by a few celebrated posters here - and surprise, surprise give a talented kid enough time and opportunity and he'll prove you wrong.

Yes well one of those should be ignored and given an Ovaltine at 8pm. Kid's weapons were obvious from the start

Only weak pea hearts (about 3 or 4 of yas) ignore my posts.

38 for the season.
28 vs the bottom 10 teams.
22 vs the bottom 8 teams.
And from memory he kicked at least 6 joe the goose goals in the square.

Rated elite against the worst teams in the comp isn’t the flex you think it is.

For a team that won 5 games and got starved of forward entries against the good side, its seems clear why he wasn't as good against the better sides.

Yeah he doesn’t give a shit what you think.
Also all players don’t have to go in as hard as prime arch

Howd he go in the draw vs Brisbane?

As ferbs has alluded to, we are better without him

Uh well he had 2.2 with 15 and could have had 4

Pretty good if u ask me.

If he ain’t getting dusty like figures , he’s no good.

He had 6 shots on goal. His selfishness had two out on the full.

Wasn’t a bad game. Player rating of 11. Was in the top third.

2 tackles isn’t good enough for a 3rd banana/medium general forward.

Its a passable game at best.

 

[hilly]

Yeah we'll look better without Zurhaar, Larkey and Mckercher

 

[DuckYeah]

No, Zurhaar, Darling, Jy and Daniel

If he'd had four, or even 3.1 we'd have won too.

Altho I don't remember him being particularly bad that game.

Dont forget the 2 shots that didn’t register a score. But yes, was serviceable

 

[BrownPaperBag]

Look for me CZ is best 22 at present
but certainly is frustrating

He had a good season last year probably his most consistent.

Previous years he would start seasons poorly .

Hopefully with the talk of his fitness being good at start of the pre season we can see improvement in the workrate issues and fwd pressure which for me is a weakness.

Not a fan of the blind hacks at goal but I do think it’s more that he’s trying to create than any selfishness

One game?

 

[DuckYeah]

One game?

Pointing out his selfish flying shots on goal instead of using the pill cost us a W. But anyway. I’ll move on and anticipate a strong start to the year for Cz

It's amusing how the opposing views of CZ are so strong.

I'm going to keep referring to him as a poor man's Harley Reid, a) cos that's what he is b) cos it pisses off the big birds
