Player Watch #11: Jason Castagna - signed to 2023

[Tiger22]

Regarding last games Aarts goald. #11 mark and break away speed is exactly why he is a good player. He took on 2 opposition players and on the dead run boots it into our 50. He is very creative with the ball and very fast.

If only he could kick goals he would be complete.

One accurate kick and we forget a season of absolute tripe? Most small forwards could make that kick blind folded. Liam Ryan does about six of them a game.

This guy is so s**t and held to such low standards, that hitting a moving target during a game actually impresses people.

God he sucks.

"Do the Tigers need another goal? Not sure but they'll want it to take some tension out of the game.
Bolton got it from Castagna, they run hard. Ross, Castagna - Castagna from 40 metres ... ooooh, there's a nail."

All hail the GOAT.

Unbelievable pressure. Don't appreciate how fast the geezer is untill you are a defender or watch him close. Plus, George is a nutter.

Deserving triple flag winner

 

[Marcel Proust]

The goal was epic and timely too

A nice low drop punt mung.

Wouldn't have it any other way with George.

Textbook defending by scots cats...

Let's not defend the goal for a guy that can't kick heaps far out in the critical point of a GF

I dont know if I'm overreacting, but all reports were this guy had a great preseason. He looks quick, fit, strong and a little more composed than previous years.

I reckon he could really improve and be a 30+ goal forward in 2021.

Especially when oppo defences will be concentrating on Lunch, JR8, Martin, Bolton etc

Kicked one good set shot in the highlights. 2 great other goals. His Achilles heel is set shot kicking. That's Emma Murray department.
Dan Rioli is a lovely kick. Just doesn't do enough of it.

Castagna is a lot better than Rioli imo. Not as good a kick, but far better in most other areas. Castagna has a hard edge for a little guy.

All of our smalls also have good aerial presence.

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

At one point, it'll all come together for 12 glorious months for Chaos Boss. Accurate kicking, goal sense, clean hands. He'll somehow end up in the All-Aus squad with 40-odd goals, and we'll all be in various states of breathless hilarity. It will be wonderful.

But then, after a short yet blissful time, Chaos Boss will instantly revert to Chaos Boss. And all we will have left will be memories.

Seriously, i'm riding for peak George. He looks a lot more confident in 2021.

The thing about Jason is he is a FRACTION taller than a lot of people think.
But still like lightening.
(Lets face it he punches above his weight in the air)
The chaos king

He has the perfect amount of the old Richmond in him. Whenever he goes near the ball the heart rate quickens, the next 10 seconds could be anything. Is he going to pick it up cleanly and run around 5 of them or fumble it? If he does get it will he find someone to kick it to? Or will he spray it out on the full? Glorious. Wouldn't trade him for 3 first rounders.

I love how the #1 post mentions him as a small defender

Ive come To love George , and I oft think of my old tiger supporting customer, a Greek servo owner a doppelgänger for a craggy faced Robert Di Niro ,,, I says to him, the opposition just dunno what George is gonna do next ,,,,with a long draw of his smoke, he replies ,,,,,,George never knows what he’s gonna do next

 

[RoaringTiger]

Geez I love this bloke. Anyone watching "Ultimate Tag" on Channel 7, George would own that show I reckon.

I’m telling ya if George improves his disposal and goal accuracy by 10-20% he will be best small forward in league

No one can go with his neck breaking chaotic speed and agility.. good above his head too
