Traded #13: Orazio Fantasia - Off to Carlton as a delisted free agent, scored a 2 year deal?

[BrunoV]

At this rate he'll end up with an average of about 2.5 goals (and probably 4 shots) a game as a forward.

Not sure about the wisdom of keeping him forward when we are getting belted in the midfield and lack run and class, but at least he got to pad out his stats (which is the key to having good stats).

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Was quite all game then bobs up with 3 goals to his name.

Love this guy.

Fantasia had 9 tackles. Goals are the cream on the cake.

 

[Stopher]

What's the go with this week's RS nomination? Raz is still the most recent as of last night...or did I miss something?

Had him in my top 5, goals where reward for his efforts.

Ryan Clarke, the bloke with the s**t haircut from lol norf got it this week

 

[Old Campaigner]

Just a casual 3 goals

 

[yaco55]

Usually looks like he's got the ball more, until you look at the stats sheet.

 

[Loonerty]

Another good performance from Raz, really finding his feet at senior level well.

 

[Bomberblitzer]

He's a genuine goal sneak. Any defender would be nervous 1 on 1 with Disney.

 

[DHepp21]

Watching him today reminded me of Cyril. Didn't have a huge amount of possessions but had a big impact.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

9 possies and 3 goals

Fair effort.

 

[Vindicater]

Another good game.

When we have a fully functioning midfield again he will look even better.

 

[ezard15]

boy have we found one here. Just hope he can be relatively consistent

 

[Matthew_Lloyd]

Good god this kid is something. Throw him in the midfield and he gathers 20+ disposals, move him forward and he gets you 3 goals on an almost consistent basis.

The bs draft penalties in 2013, and Crameri leaving, has been a blessing

 

[YEMOC NAYR]

Barometer.

 

[Cristiano Ronaldo]

The Raz with his standard 3 goals once again.

 

[TheFrenchCut]

His hands overhead are so good for his size. Not a lot of small defenders can go with him in the air one-on-one.

You know if we didn't get those sanctions, we probably end up with Zach, Orazio and 2 other good players... not instead of?

Nah mate, we probably end up with Bont, Lobb and Orazio

This is the sign of a quality small forward I reckon. They are opportunists who simply have to get to as many contests as possible and apply as much pressure as possible, hence they are frequently in the play without necessarily getting the ball. When the ball falls their way they need to cash in.

As he further refines his craft at the top level he can gradually increase his disposal count, not to mention the fact he can go to wing or half back if the need arises and not look out of place.

Love him.

If we didn't get the sanctions, we'd be getting them this year and next year.

 

[the PILL]

Great player!


He looks like Corky Romano...

 

[Stopher]

He should be getting a top-3 finish in the RS, if not a sneaky chance to win it. To kick 30 goals as a small forward in your second year in a team that has a chronic scoring problem is no mean feat.

Third year.
