Player Watch #2: Finn O’Sullivan - Rd15 AFL Rising Star Nominee - Congrats Fossil

[Jonnoo]

Rising star through today and the weight of his seasons work

 

[FlyHigh18]

Finally

 

[RedmanWasHere]

First VFL/AFL player to have a first goal in the league kicked in Bunbury.

 

[Dingster]

That last quarter in particular...

 

[gokangas]

Very good game.

 

[BlueandWhiteinmyBlood]

It is night and day how clean he is with the footy compared to his team-mates.

Surely we will northify him soon?

But in all seriousness, break out game. He is a jet - composure is key in the modern game.

 

[zoomba23]

Loved that he didn't wait around to be swamped. Just grimly got on with business, high fiving whoever he could as he went

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Composed.

 

[kangatragic]

One of the few players on our list I have confidence with ball in hand. Wait to he starts consistently getting the ball 20 plus times

 

[archerboy]

Underwhelming

 

[Nylex]

Amazing game. Won every one on one he was involved in.

 

[shinboner magic]

Is a Cyril Rioli type that doesn’t need to have it 25 times a game to have a huge effect

Cool as a cucumber and always makes the right decision

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Underwhelming

Is this satire?

 

[archerboy]

Is this satire?

Yes, in reply to one of the many positive posters from a few weeks ago

 

[Reagan Smash]

One of few players we have that doesn't instantly shit his pants when he gets pressured

 

[the big lebowski]

His defending is very underrated.

Way better than sheez or Kerch.

I think it was early in the second he was 1 vs 2 in the back line under a high ball and managed to bring the ball to ground.

I don’t think one forward has got a hold of him this year which is pretty remarkable

 

[Jindrrk]

Rarely turns the ball over. It is insane how good this kid is. Puts most of our senior players to shame when he is composed and they keep spudding it up

He is about the only player on our list where I don't get anxious about the ball getting turned over.

 

[Possession]

Jeez he was good.

 

[Harris 10]

His last qtr was one of the big reasons we won.

 

[Gasometer]

Youngest playing today? Did I hear correctly?

 

[CURVE]

Youngest playing today? Did I hear correctly?

Yes, and he was the most composed player on the field. His footy IQ is probably higher than 95% of those playing today, he always looks like he has time and always makes the right decision.

 

[Gasometer]

Yes, and he was the most composed player on the field. His footy IQ is probably higher than 95% of those playing today, he always looks like he has time and always makes the right decision.

He has a grace and composure I haven’t seen since a North player from the 70’s

 

[guapo]

Might be the best of our 7 top 4 picks. Not accumulating like Sheez and Kerch did in their first years but just seems so much better rounded than all the others. No obvious weakness other than being the youngest guy on the park each week

 

[deano28]

Absolute jet .

 

[RHLK]

Has a wide, stable base to go with his obvious composure and skills. Those fend-offs....

Gave the aggro WC d:ck with the headband a good county-boy ferk you, too.
