Past #15: Paul Ahern - delisted after 24 NM games/6 NM goals - thanks Pauly

[Flawed Genius]

BT said that was Garner

It was definitely Ahern

It was a ******* ripper kick

 

[Themanbun]

I liked what I saw tonight. His is a little bit of class that we need in the backline.

Should be modeling his game on the bloke chaired off at the end tonight.

 

[Thewlis Dish]

Defensive work a lot better tonight. Think he’ll make a great rebounding defender with time, lowered his eyes and hit up targets well. Terrific game.

I think Marley and Pittard intercepting everything helped, but would definitely be giving him the rest of the year and the preseason with the defensive group. His ball use and ability to sum up what's ahead of him quickly is seriously elite.

His ability to get boot to ball quickly and kick it 50-60 metres in the process is well suited to pressure situations.

How long have we needed real class use off HB for? A ways to go obviously but s**t he was good tonight. Strong in the contest and composed. Think we could really use persisting with him off the half back line.

He really improved on last week tonight. Altho it was possibly less of an improvement on the second half of last week as well so he's definitely building quickly in a new position. His ball use off the backline is unreal and his defensive work was noticeably better.

I know mate, was just taking the piss.

BT got Durdin mixed up with a Zurhaar and Larkey at stages tonight too

As I said in the GD Thread, 24 and 44 are close so I will overlook

He called Simpkin Thomas at one stage.

602m gained, 5 inside 50’s, 8 rebound 50’s, 6 score involvements.

If he can add a real defensive game and keep up those sort of numbers that’s seriously elite, especially when you are going at 80%DE

Almost impossible that he was able to see Zurhaar, given the ball was given to him on the fat side (and behind him).

Think of the Atley kick vs *. That kick was elite.

 

[Billy Not Really]

He's been a revelation at half-back now. His off a step kick exploding out of the backline was really handy and he's one of our cleanest kicks and that's what you need when theres risk of a turnover.

His defensive game is improving, slowly. But its getting there. His speed and burst is improving, looks faster than last year.

 

[tazaa]

I rate tonight games right with the West Coast game last year. Pivotal.

 

[Roo Beauty]

His kicking and decision making is so far ahead of any other HB we have on the list. Would love to see him stay there for the rest of the year, thought he was excellent tonight.

 

[LETSGOKANGAS]

If he is given time with the ball you can almost bank on good delivery and to our advantage every time.

 

[the flying ham]

In the context of the game, it was one of his best. Scrappy fumbly game, and here he is rolling from QB one grabbing and hitting blokes lace out. His vision and ability to hit blokes on the periphery was so good. Defended real well tonight, sounds like Shaw has backed him in. Onward and upward for Paul

His confidence is back.

Must never play VFL again.

Finding a bit of leather off hb works wonders.

There was enough pressure applied by his team mates to bring out Paul's effectiveness last night.

He has 53 disposals (16 contested) and 1 tackle from his 2 games since he returned.
