My Boy Draft 2022: Pick 16, ghostdog

 

[Old Campaigner]

BUMP!

Any updates on the eggman?

Been showing up at anti vaxxer protests lately.


Oh wait, that’s eggboy

BUMP!

Any updates on the eggman?

Still an absolute specimen.

Its interesting that everyone seems to have written him off even though he finished the season as one of our most in form players and played a decent final compared to most as well. Will have his chances in 2022 for sure.

One on one defense deep is not really his go. He is likely to be surplus given the defense stocks we now have despite his strong finish. His one wood is half back flank , intercepting and providing a bit of run but we have a few in that race.

Was actually decent when he came on. No world beater but definitely not the liability people seem to think he was during the game.

One of the few that tried today. Good game. Gets to good spots.

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Was quite good again today despite and his obvious limitations, he's proving he can still be a solid contributor in the best 22. Not sure if some of the ego's here will be able to concede that. But credit where it's due.

100% agree.

Totally agree. Was definitely one of our best players when he came on.

Decent game, Tommy.
Should be named on the bench at least.

 

[ant555]

He may not crash in and use his size that way but he also does not get thrown of the footy like a rag doll. Is putting together some good work but the list spots are looking a bit tight this year.

Quite a few times he was out on the far side, holding his width (which is what he's meant to do) and our players ignored him to kick to the congestion on the near side instead.

Think he's doing well, would be better if our players out of the back half actually looked for the loose player to switch to.

 

[VelvetSledge]

Not playing this week. In Health and Safety protocols.

Replacement yet to be decided

Probably means Redman is safe from being dropped with Snelling coming in and likely pushing Ham up the ground anyway.

 

[TheGrizz]

Bigger loss than you'd expect. Been a pretty consistent this year so far.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

He does stuff but he doesn’t seem to hurt teams or help too much. Just one example against Lions running in and screws up a short pass to Stringer who was inside 30m to goal. Easy goal missed

 

[Duckworth]

Out: Cutler
In: Snelling

Redman one lucky SOB.

Sounds like he has been going okay. Question is how many half backs you need going okay on a list.

Remind me a bit of Dyson in that regard.

Had a lot of issues with his game but has ironed many of them out to the point he is genuine AFL standard.

As you say, will there be a list spot available for him? From what we've seen of McDonagh and Ham, I know which way I'd be going.

Tom Cutler​

Key stats: 17 disposals, three marks

"'Cuts' only played the first half because he was on restricted game-time as an AFL emergency. He was outstanding, played on the wing and broke the lines to give us plenty of run and set up our attacks. He also helped us defensively with his transition. He ended up getting tagged in the second term because of the influence he was having."
