Past #17: Aaron Mullett - 85 NM games/31 goals - ‘11 Rookie Draft - Fish —> Carlton as DFA Nov’17

[Gasometer]

Scotts brought in that 2016 orange strip I heard.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

I didn't really notice fish that much today, had a few good kicks and didn't seem to get beaten that often one on one so I'm not sure what people saw that was so bad?

 

[Horizons_00]

He did well I thought

 

[boneofshin]

Does every post need a Scott reference?

It's bitterly disappointing.

 

[Roo Beauty]

Yeah and I like the reference to my home town

Hey me too.

 

[kaboom kid]

Only when it's a negative.

Scott wasn't responsible for Higgins coming to the club, Simpkin getting another game this week and shining, Majak and Garner in and immediately adding some life to the team, Ben Brown being awesome, ...

Yep Supercoach Scott has certainly got the Midas touch this week....they say he shits solid gold turds....

Yeh me either. Far from our worst and far from disgraced. Holds his place for mine.

 

[adrenalinjunkie]

Agree with Tazaa on this.

To cut a long story short though, I preferred this thread when it had the retro-Spandau Ballet dimension to it.

Agree. First game back and he certainly wasn't the bad Fishy of early last year. He stays!

 

[Harris 10]

Typical Mullet game for me wasn't good and wasn't bad.
Playing him did allow Luke to play higher up the ground which I liked.

 

[Arathrawn]

Think this bloke just needs some continuity. Hasn't really had a run at it.

 

[Reagan Smash]

You can't really expect too much from guys who have had a interrupted seasons.

It was Mullets and Garners first game at this level this year and I thought they were both good considering the circumstances.

 

[Page8383]

Good game from mullet v dogs.
Really scrubbed out the howlers and provided plenty of run from def 50.
Was a solid back 6 effort yesterday the defensive unit.
I feel like Aaron is a guy who really knows how to play but just needs to execute what he wants to do.
Think he did that yesterday and hope its a little confidence boost and long awaited return to form

He's playing far more like he belongs this season.

 

[amaz199]

Watched the replay, when he took the kick-in, he would usually run forward, get it back and hit up another target only to get it back again. I think he is sorta taking Atley's role to allow Ats have a go in the middle.

Looks a lot more composed with the ball.

Hey me too.

Whenever I'm in Victoria I stay in Sunbury with all.

 

[king rising]

like vanilla ice cream. plain as all get up. still don't rate him

Starting to build himself a really decent Foundation.

 

[ShiNoBi]

I think mullet is gonna play rest of season.
can trust all short/middium back line ( Lmac. williums, mullet, Jmac, atley)

if EVW or Durdin improve more for the spot of Thompson) and no one is injured, will be all right i think.

 

[Shinboner '07]

Yeah hasn't done much wrong so far

 

[ansonholt]

Is getting better every week. Really liked his game last night. Played with confidence and executed really well. Seems to have his pace and his kicking back. Hopefully starting to form a solid partnership with Marley and as a result our kick outs are 100% better this year.

 

[Bleeeeeeeeep]

What did he have 24 touches at 95% efficiency?
Best kicker of the ball in the team.
Still been played out of position I think.

 

[Kimbo]

Generally, neither do I, but his last two games have been more than serviceable. Seems more composed and his kicking has been excellent. It's his (lack of) capacity for one-on-one defensive work that leaves me concerned. If he had the tank, and assuming Gibson continues his decline, he'd be okay on the wing.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

A few good kicks from Azza last night.
Actually, very very penetrating.

50 odd touches in a fortnight is a decent return after 14 touches first game up of 2017 with plenty of kicks but last night's game I saw him handball more than kick in a game/recess and lunch kick to kick session for the first time ever.

What I do want him to do is take the game on more.
Go for sprints that end up in either a goal or a goal assist.

Definite stayer.

 

[tazaa]

Unrecognizable. Hes kicking drop punts. Beating his man. If he allows Atley and McDonald to play up the ground Im all for him staying in the side.
No issue from me.
