Player Watch #32 Samson Ryan

[THE_GUN]

i cant accept it, the two new kids showed more than Ryan in their first game. Ryan has to lift big time.

Ryan is a Ruckman the 2 kids are not

show what Ryan has shown so far to warrant that possition ?

He has been very good when played as a Ruck
problem is Nank is so durable Ryan doesnt get the chance

isnt he too soft for a ruckman? cant mark very well either. I just dont see it unless he impoves a lot, which i dont see him doing, I hope im wrong cause he seems like a nice kid.

He has 2 years to get there

I have more hope Colina will make it in 2 years rather than him.

Watched 10mins of VFL and this farken dud has given away 2 goals already

He has to play next week v saints … he was again fantastic today

I wouldn't bring him in. Saints are almost as small as Port atm, so I don't think there's a need for two rucks, especially on the fast deck at Marvel.

I'd be more inclined to send Blight into the ruck from down back whenever Keeler goes in and persist with Bauer and Armstrong as the Godfather's henchmen up forward.

You might be right …. I just like to reward good vfl form which is what he showed today

So you missed the 3goals he kicked but let’s focus on the negatives.

Not sure why people are bagging this guy

If Nank went down tomorrow he is our only option and when he has rucked at VFL level full game he has been very good so its not like we can just pluck a gun Ruck from state football.

He is cheap and is a backup we must have and if he develops in the next 2 years great and if he doesnt then big deal
lets face it , If he was fantastic right now he would have left to play for another team so whats the point bagging the kid

Makes people feel better to pot players

This also applies to posting on football forums

 

[tiger_tough]

Same old same old

Same old same old

failed to rise to the occasion

 

[Baltastan]

Was unsighted for 3 quarters and when backed in and given a shot to start in the middle in the last he gave up 3 centre clearances with no resistance. Writing is on the wall for him sadly.

 

[A Tiger 4 lyf]

list clogger for the next 3 seasons

Rubbish, gotta play sims and the cat b’s over this guy

 

[TheDyerLegacy]

Can we delete his thread to manifest his trade/delist

 

[Baltastan]

There was a moment in the last quarter when he threw one hand up in a marking contest and then stood still and watched a Gold Coast player pick it up at his feet and handball it forward. I always wanted him to make it but that was the final straw.

 

[prodigy]

I feel for the bloke to be honest. He genuinely looks imposing at VFL level but then goes to water at AFL level.
I never understood why we committed to him for three years.

He isn't the answer long term. He can't be the one to replace Nank as our number one ruck.

 

[Le RickyBobby]

Back to the VFL. Would honestly rather chuck Sims in and see what he can do. It can't be worse.

What are you on about? Ryan clearly outpointed Witts in the third of those three. Tapped it straight down the throat of TT, who dished off to Ross and we were out.
