SDK just not enough mongrel
We’re playing very poor all over missing targets, marks out on the full kicks
Missing easy chances running fwd
Blind kicks
Feel like dees have come to play and we’ve been drinking our bath water
Good mark, but lacks intensity, lacks burst speed and hasn’t got enough agility for a mid ( he tends to walk into a tackler, lift his arms with his height to release a handball - that’s not going to cut it). Would be shocked if he makes it
Conway maybe will prove a win (I’m very hopeful) but knevitt is zero, will not make it. Effectively Conway vs Clark.
Clark is very good and a loss to us but hopefully Conway had yet getter career long term.
Definitely would pick smith over Perkins.
Smith is a point of difference and much higher ceiling. Still young and has the ability to be a top 5 mid in the game if he’s focussed and is different to all our mids. ACL is a risk though.
Perkins is more a standard B grader that most teams have. No...
Because knevitt is so far off it and lacks intensity.. at least oisin has the talent, just needs confidence. Way more potential in oisin than knevitt. There is a reason knevitt is down the pecking order
This keeps happening. Saints have a few blind kick and hopes and it works with us out of position. As frustrating as it is, it highlights our poor positioning behind the ball
Kids I’m excited about (in no particular order):
Holmes
O. Henry
Clark
SDK
Conway
Dempsey
Bruhn
COS
Kids I believe in but not 100% convinced:
Mullin
Neale
Kids I think are overrated on this board and would be surprised to see make it:
Knevitt
Clohesy
Too early to tell you include last...
Dempsey had impressed me most. Going to be a gun.
Clark looks like he will be a nice cog.
Neale might be a player.
I think Mannagh will be an important role player for us this yr and over the next few.
I know knevitt didn’t play but he’s nowhere near the above in terms of best 22.
He can be quick at combine conditions but he plays slow and reactionary. He can’t breakaway from players and instead has a habit of walking into tackles, freeing the arms with his height to hb away. Not ideal for a midfielder. His combine results mean zero when he plays with cement feet
But he’s the same age as Conway. We do need more rucks but someone a little younger than Stanley to ease Conway into it. Having a ruck the same age as Conway makes little sense unless we think Conway won’t make it, potentially due to durability
Why would we select edwards when there is zero chance we could play both Conway and edwards in the same team in the future??
Can someone please explain.
