Our best pure midfielder by far.

 

[Royal Flush]

Good call that.

I have not witnessed a full team contribution in a long time. But happy to get something right

Sometimes we take for granted what he does, because he does it so often, but that was a special first quarter. Clearance after clearance. When he gets it in traffic, it's almost certain he'll create something. It's freakish.

Beast mode. Looking forward to what he and Jack can do as a 1-2 punch for the next 4-5 years now they can both run

Needs the pipes for the odd 30m handball off either side

Also, perfect old school handball technique, you know, ball on palm of hand punched by clenched fist, as opposed to the Western Braves flick pass/throw style which is becoming increasingly popular league wide

His hands are the best in the caper imo... Probably the best ive seen in quite a few years and will only get better...

Do you mean his ability by hand or his ability to never fumble?

Sam Mitchell has him covered for handball ability but Cunners would be a comfortable second.

Cunners in heavy traffic...thats where he is at his best...

Pure handball ability is better than Mitchells imo, but Mitchell moves/d a bit better in congestion which gives him that split second longer. The little sidestep/juke that has brought him time for a decade is what Cunners needs to learn, instead of taking on the world with the stiff arm.
