Seems really slow with ball in hand. I'd be using his endurance to get him out in space up the ground, not in the pressure of a forward line where quick decisions and execution are critical.

Another Lamb special! Lions fans like when we traded for Fullarton were more than happy to see the back of him. Not one winner in trading since Langdon. Not one. That's utterly appalling. We either can't target the right players or can't land any decent ones. Even within a premiership window.

yep... he looked tonight like he didn't want any physical contact. Not another one of them.

Not saying he is any good, but he's the exact type of player that would suffer badly in this environment. A fringe player in a good attacking team looks dogshit in a slow defensive team, surprise surprise!

He looked to me like he took shortcuts to miss contact, and to not compete. The first time i noticed him do that. But i haven't seen every game.

So I never have to go searching for this again - 3 year deal reported:

Houston, we have lift-off: Magpies all-in on flag tilt after landing All-Australian
Collingwood landed dual All-Australian Dan Houston in a huge trade involving Gold Coast and Port Adelaide that saw five players change clubs.

Far from a star but has a few tricks which lead to nice things, and works pretty hard. Definitely exceeded my v low expectations for the trade

Nothing can do that for me, but Sharp is the pizza in my hoodie binge watching TV after the breakup.

Crikey Power! I think you are a swell guy but unless you own a time machine maybe slow down a little bit. Have a breather. Make some new friends. Learn a new hobby. Listen to some new music (my kids have really ****ed up my YouTube algorithm - I'm now watching a Laga Gaga video titled "Stupid Love" wondering if they are in fact, biological my children). Actually on second thoughts continue to enjoy your own music but the other points stand.Sharp > ANB

Credit to Sharp and probably the coaches too. He’s being used in a way that exploits his strengths now. His confidence seems way up as a result.
Last year’s approach of “Let’s acquire an endurance-with-speed freak and then sub him on or off depending on the week” was baffling.
He’s still pretty scrappy with his kicking and I doubt that will ever change. But he creates chances with his run and pace that others wouldn’t so I can live with the erratic kicking for sure.
He’d have to be close to top 5 in the B&F early which is a huge surprise to me.
