Past #22: Todd Goldstein - has advised NMFC he will seek opportunity at Essendon in '24 - 316 NM games/156 goals/'15 SBM/'15 AA/most hitouts in lge history

[TennisPlayerAndy]

He made his opposition look 453884th rate.

 

[Elite Master]

Love his more aggressive all round attitude. He's throwing his body around a lot more and he is taking strong contestant marks as a result. Even when he was on track for AA a few years ago he didn't really use his frame around the ground, but now he has added that string to his bow and it makes him even more dangerous.

 

[Benno_900]

If he doesn't make AA this season, either the selectors are braindead or he has had a failed season.

Best ruckman in the league by a mile.

 

[Devington]

Lets be honest for a second.

What are his chances of a Brownlow?

 

[ozzyoslo]

Pick 1?

Whack away Andy........Im happy to stand by my statement earlier TPA.....he wasn't marking and Ive heard many times by commentary experts that say ruck man that only do tapwork are a waste ......but no I didn't raise the issue because it causes crap discussion and then it gets personal.
Why hasn't he done it earlier ?
He started to do so in the Geelong final and Im wrapped for the bloke.....and there is still room for him to hurt the opposition physically he still doesn't do it.

 

[ozzyoslo]

Now that Ive got the bad stuff out of my system today.........Being a perennial bagger I thought that the Golden one was terrific , how many over head marks did he take today, I thought I counted 4 ---> this is what I been screaming for in a ruck man all this time it just adds another dimension to his game when he does it it also make players down the ground ( for and against to rethink when seeing Goldy there ready to take a grab) more of this Todd and AA will be yours.

There you go andy.....you're a week behind.

Tongue in cheek mate.

I also questioned his physicality, it has improved out of sight.

 

[ozzyoslo]

He's beaten Jacobs and Leuenberger........take note AA selectors. (No sweat TPA)

 

[scooby1279]

Top game from Goldy taking more marks and tackling has been great. Elevated himself to number 1 ruckman so far

 

[Shinboner '07]

Give him AA ruck now please

 

[ozzyoslo]

I don't know why people mention his tackle count.......it was ok before, it was overhead marking around the ground that he need to work on. And I still want him to hurt opposite players.

 

[amaz199]

I liked how he went deep into defence and guarded our FB area for a bit. Stopped a lot of high kicks that came in hot.

 

[benbanjo]

You know if ozzyoslo is talking him up he must be doing well!

 

[Harris 10]

Clearly our best player, has been winning his position week in week out for about 3 years now.

 

[Donkey Chop]

It's not just his marking and aggressiveness that has improved, his kicking today was ****ing brilliant. He's always kicked well but today he was really damaging with his long kicking

hey hey hey pull up H10.....lets not get too carried away now.

 

[Harris 10]

Sorry, 4 years.

 

[Mordecai]

Watershed game. One of the great rucking performances.

 

[boneofshin]

If Lobbe is still unavailable next week, which seems quite likely, then it will go a long way towards us beating Port.

Just quietly, Port are a realistic chance of going 0-5 to start the season, which would hopefully stop the media circle jerk over them.

But BUt BUt..... never tear us apart!!!!

I hope we fecken tear them a newe one next week!

 

[ozzyoslo]

We have to lift a couple of gears to win this one Pt Adel are playing decent footy.

 

[R00StaR]

He's looking awesome, fantastic start to the year. That pick up and snap goal was crazy.....sort of thing you'd expect from Boomer not a huge ol dinosaur

 

[Hearts to hearts]

That was just a brilliant all round game. Tapping, chasing, marking, passing, goalkicking - he played like five guys today, was everywhere, strong and committed and skilful and tireless. Loved it in the last when the crowd just rose for a sequence of play by him near the forward 50 on the members wing side. An absolute privilege to be there to see that performance.

 

[CrazyQ]

I'm drunk. I'm at the strippers. I'm surrounded by pussy.

But I'm thinking about Goldstein and how much of a G he is. This is a dude Tha knows he not only belongs but he can climb these campaigners.

He's certified gold.

 

[CrazyQ]

Mental game.

Has grown four dicks.

Ignore my post.

Grown four dicks days it all.
