Past #1: Majak Daw [Part II] - 54 NM games/43 NM goals - delisted end '20 - SSP selection for MFC '21 - retired mid-'22

[The acurate one]

Yes, but what is steering the thing?

Instinct, see ball get ball or if you prefer the hunter, take down the lame first of course....

These sorts of clips just highlight to me that he is an athlete only. To put it simply he doesn’t have a football brain or understanding of defensive positioning to be on the best 22*stern look*

Very nice. Looks even bigger now.

Mods, please change the title, I have a heart attack every time 'season over' flashes up when this comes to the top.

Might be just imagining it but, to me, Majak looks a lot more focussed and intense this pre-season.

Mate you're not the whole squad is.

I have also noted a harder demeanor.

If he gets it right, then look out.

Remarkable comeback. Still hard to believe what happened 12 months ago.

At the open training session a couple weeks back, when in their training groups doing the rotating drills, one drill involved pairs of players taking the tackle of their partner, protecting the ball, then giving a handball off.

Maj was with McKay, Durdin and someone else. Maj stood out to me because every time he tackled the guy with the ball, it was being jarred loose due to the force of his tackle/pressure. This was in stark contrast to McKay, durds etc who might as well not even tackled as their pressure was that minimal.

I’d really like to see Maj adopt the Anderson/Zurhaar mindset with regard to taking man and ball.

They would umpire him out of existence in the same manner they curbed Ziebell.

Yeah, that thought did occur to me as well...

Although, on reflection, Jack was inclined to jump into people. Jed, Zurhaar and Majak tend to bowl over opponents without leaving the ground themselves. Irrelevant, really, in Jed’s case, due to his height.

Hmm may need to reconsider my first round team.

He'd be opened up to this sort of crap

‘Duty of care’.

The biggest load of s**t to pervade the game.

There will be dead bodies galore if he tackles that way.

I almost posted the same and decided I was seeing what I wanted to... maybe it is there. Possibly he has a bit more of a view on time in the game and perspective has honed him a bit.
