Player Watch #25: Robbie Tarrant - contract extended to the end of 2021

[D23D]

You can add Modra Salmon and Richo to that list.

Sumich, Kernahan and Rocca too

 

[Dingster]

One thing I noticed getting to see a rare live game is that he's like a predator. Most defenders will be a metre away from their man. Taz bends and makes contact with his man giving him no mental release. Then when we win position he runs off him and instantly gets separation. #rentfree

 

[Bigeasy]

He's a STAR.

 

[tazaa]

Confidence is shot.
Thank god we were solid after quarter time.
Was seeing the footy like tennis balls and he lost all faith in his hands.
Evident when he spoiled the footy straight to his man in Gunston in the last.

But fu** did he save us in the last when Hawthorn came at us.

True shinboner performance.

 

[Billy Not Really]

If he's not a lock for AA I'm gonna ******* kill someone.

Spot on, couldn't hold a mark then just decided to go the spoil all game.

Usually Taz always goes mark first for sure

Losing the battle against Kennedy has rattled him

He gets a good break and be able to reset for Hawkins

Mitch Lewis looked like slaughtering us first quarter so Taz moved to him and bang, no more Lewis danger.

That's right. He stopped Lewis, although the midfield were getting on top and we started to apply the pressure we should have started with as well. No more silver service. But i'm pretty sure Taz went to Lewis in the first and immediately curbed his influence even before the mids started getting it together.

 

[Kanga Glory]

He just kills the high ball and reads the play so well

 

[Heaps of fun]

Snubbed for AA squad.

 

[King Corey]

Snubbed for AA squad.

He was just too damn good looking.

 

[Bhoys Dont Cry]

Absolutely robbed.

 

[benbanjo]

Snubbed for AA squad.

WOW! That's some first rate BS

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Daniel Talia in over him is ridicolous. Talia has been bloody average this year.

 

[SMaturin]

Actually disgusted.

 

[Moti]

Should be in squad but started poorly before a great mid-late season

He didn't start poorly.

 

[benbanjo]

I thought he only had one bad game this year against the eagles, which was a very odd game from him. Otherwise he has been great, had some cement hands there for a few rounds but still played well enough.

I'd take him as my starting fullback out of everyone out there, mind boggling.

Anyway he should almost take out our BnF so that should be something for him.

 

[boncer34]

Extremely stiff

 

[DuckYeah]

What a fu**in joke! He has been the best KPD all year! Piss off Luke Darcy you flog!

 

[DesertRoo]

Extremely stiff

Pretty sure that’s what james said after injecting the wrong stuff.

 

[brettman135]

Criminally under appreciated by the media.

 

[Groin guru]

No surprises. Has probably been the most consistent defender in the AFL over the past 3 years. Just like Scooter was before his AA selection.

Not sure what he has to do. It always amazes me that mid-year the stat gurus for the AFL point out how many goals defenders have conceded. Then they go quiet in the 2nd half so they can award the usual suspects or the guys that play loose (mcgovern and Andrews when Adams plays).

Solid as a rock and never gives an inch.
