Past #25 Ben Paton

[dosser]

Well done Ben, you deserve a paton the back.

See what I did there?

I would have missed it until you pointed it out.

 

[giantsully]

Always felt for Ben after Roughead broke his leg. I wish him well with you guys.

Hope you smash the Hawks.

Ah, that might explain his career trajectory.

 

[The King!]

His club profile pic looks like he was scared of the photographer

 

[J_Moore]

Signing up a player delisted by a shit team is always going to carry some risks

 

[Superstar swan]

Ideally he wouldn’t be playing if Cunningham was fit

 

[The King!]

I think he fought the game out well, could be the third tall/spare.

Reads it better than Francis has been.

I didn't think he was too bad, not spectacular but did his job.

Strong disagree Jules, I saw a lot of him. He's far too easily beaten.

It was one game. His first in new colours and he probably put a lot of pressure on himself to make it count and hold his spot in the team after not being a regular last season. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for a couple more games. He wasn't really that bad.

[Callipygian]

Early on I thought Wicks was performing much better. But by the end I thought he'd done ok and there wasn't that much between him and Wicks.

Wicks was much better but Paton got better as the game went on.

 

[The King!]

Never ever again.

 

[robbieando]

The answer to the question no one asked

 

[Superstar swan]

Waste of time

 

[Dangas]

He's no good. Really shows our inept depth.

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

No i mean we targeted him so we saw something what that is who knows.

 

[GreyGooseGuy88]

Slow, bad skills - seen enough delist

 

[The King!]

He was a rookie lister? So it’s a free hit worth a try, just stuff it play Sheldrick a full game, bring Mitchell in, literally try anyone from the VFL instead

I think DFA? cant be bothered checking haha

 

[Adnico26Parker]

I was happy we "stole" him off of the Giants!

How wrong I was

 

[Tedeski]

He just needs to find form in the twos where he can put some consecutive games together alongside other senior listed players when they come back.
The poor reserves can’t possibly get any confidence at the moment such is the quality in that team.
A real shit year for the club.
No doubt by years end Ben will be going better than he seems to be going right now. He wasn’t alone in that first half yesterday.

 

[Caj]

Felt sorry for him, looked very dejected after getting subbed off

He hasn’t shown a great deal but I feel he’s marked harsher as a whipping boy due to being new to the club

 

[GreyGooseGuy88]

He's been given enough opportunities. Blind Freddy can see he isn't up to it. Delist at seasons end. List clogger
