[Caracas]

Watching the replay, not only did he reprise his shimmy, he also did that subtle little “fake” before offloading to Higgins who scored the sealer in the last.

Or as Dwayne would call it, the drop step

 

[Moti]

Was good, noticeable during the game. Shows his drop off was not a "cooked" scenario but an application. Still not 100% sure what player he will end up being, still think either a clever HF or inside player but could depend on what the rest of the team looks like.

I think he is a born hff. We are crying out for a player across hf that can make things happen...

Better couple of weeks but he dribbles a few kicks too many IMO. Think he needs to focus on clean kicking before getting too cute.

 

[Maddocks44]

Really needs to get dangerous when forward. Bit of a nothing game today unfortunately.

Rolled his ankle in the 1st. Went off to get re-strapped. Went down into the rooms in the 2nd presumably to get a jab.

Still tries too much fancy s**t at times and turns it over. Needs to get better at this. No doubt he will.

Hope he never stops trying to create, he’s one of the very few guys on our list with flair (Higgo, Cunners, LDU probably the only others that come to mind)

 

[Roosurgence]

Such a tease this bloke. Moments of brilliance littered with big patches where he goes missing.

If he can start to get more consistency and stay involved for longer..... will be a gun!

There is a time and a place for it.. just like when you need to do the basics instead of trying to look like a hero

I reckon you are a hard task master; yet to play 50 games and has offered more exciting moments in that time than some others who have been around for 150 games

Look out after this Pre Season

 

[Thewlis Dish]

Playing all 22 is a huge effort given his interrupted pre-season, and age.

Yep

Bet above were also bitching about Ben10s and JZs first 30 games

Expectations round here are bloody ridiculous. Instant gratification is required

Yup.

Also think he had a good year. Big preseason and he could break out in a big way.

1st year Brownlow or delist.

 

[Passmore]

If we succeed over trade eon I'd like to see him as a permanent small forward next year.

Smart, creates, good pressure, can find the goals and good over head so we could isolate him at times.
