Player Watch #31: Josh Goater - re-signed until the end of 2025 - ruptured Achilles injury vs GWS

[The Nostradamus]

give us our debut announcement vid

with no perez and hall has to come in

 

[Event Horizon]

Yeah, it will be a wasted opportunity if Goater doesn't get a game this season

Especially when Bergman and archer have somehow gotten games ahead of him

It’s Goater time

Can rotate wing and hbf

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Is there a reason he hasn't played a game in the seniors yet? Is he undersized and still need development ect?

Based on my vfl viewings, I would say his limited tank. It has gotten a lot better, but he still drifts out of games late.

Played wing last game, instead of deep defence, and looked a natural.

Reason he hasn't debuted is due to his lack of defensive pressure. Understands that and has been working on that. As a junior he didn't need to worry about defence, just go get the ball ""

But yes you would think if we lose a few to covid- he'd be in the mix finally.

Oh one of those.

Was he too busy getting the ball and running it upfield?

 

[FootySmartSimpson]

This guy is so important for our future success.

If he can lock an offensive HB or wing position down, it will be huge.

Give it time KC we'll coach that natural flair right out of him.

stern look

He'll say something like 'show them why you were pick 21' and he'll go onto win 4 premierships

 

[Mr Lloyd Christmas]

LOL.

I swear even though you are joking that may be the case.

It's why Hall stands out so much in defence as he is about the only bloke who's first instinct is to attack and create not just defend!

The old defensive pressure reason that applies to some more than others.

It's actually straight up weird that this guy hasn't been experimented with when you consider how physically developed he is and how much we've lost this year.

I mean, Radio Bergman got a game and he was so skinny that he did his shoulder drinking a 300ml Big M on the bench.

Chocolate milk is GOATED after a game. Reminds me of nationals after every game the trainers would hand out big Ms to everyone.

Thats on the trainers.. should’ve told him it was full cream milk, not skim milk..

He's progressing well. Been moved up to a wing and is thriving. If he continues to progress, he'll get a game or two before the season is out

Lol @ Radio Bergman

Yeah hup!

i made this point at the start of the year and everyone thought i was being harsh on him.

There was a reason he slipped down to pick 20.

 

[see see]

Lol @ Radio Bergman

Yeah hup!

Radio Bergman.

Brilliant.

It breaks my heart that he can't get a game.

I think that's exactly why we're at the wrong end of the ladder.

The kid has innate skills and athletic traits that put him in the top 1% of the top 1% of every junior kid in the Country - think how talented these kids are at the level.

What do we do we use some cookie cutter, tick the boxes approach rather than harnessing what the kid's got.

It was hard to watch what happened to Miller. I was bleeding from my eyes...

We would have kept Chris Judds in the VFL due to his inferior ruckwork.

Patch has kind of had a first hand view of Goater from the beginning so I'm sure there's a valid reason he hasn't played.
