Delisted #36: Michael Hartley - Joins Hawthorne via the preseason draft - 29/11

[Old Campaigner]

Suppose Saints will drop Carlisle then as he's conceded 9 goals in last two games. Sinclair kicked 5.3 last night. Amazing how hard it is for a defender to stop when there's no pressure further up the ground.

I doubt the coaches even look at the score conceded. Coaches these days would be far more concerned with the player's positioning, effort and how well they play the role they have been given.

Brown took contested marks on Hurley as well.
Hartley has been pretty good and often gets the best forward to free Hurley.
He is a whipping boy for some.

 

[Great8]

Needs to stop giving away silly frees for holding guernseys. Is doing a pretty good job though

Has Hartley got a fist in on a lead in the last three weeks?

2nd in the league for one percenters per game behind Rance.

GTFO this club.

You what?

Would you please? Absolutely pantsed Cloke today whose only goal was a result of a push in the back. One of the few defenders who won his day

 

[Doss]

Posting on emotion is a really bad idea sometimes.

 

[Despair]

I was emotional but I stand by it. He's trash.

Absolutely pantsed lol. He still kicked a goal, took 5 marks and had 11 disposals. Should have had two goals. It wasn't just his one on one defending, its his lack of influence in pack situations.. he just isnt killing balls.

He was delisted from Collingwood for a reason. He only looks good in the games we dominate. Ambrose > Hartley.

 

[Doss]

He is not trash, come off it.

He was definitely in our top 5 or 6 today.

Far from trash. Building nicely for a guy in his 2nd year. You can't beat teams best key position talls with Marty Gleeson playing as the foil. Needs someone a little more capable than that getting in front of leading Ben Browns and Buddy Franklins. Hopefully people are beginning to notice the massive deficiencies we have in our backline.

Need a contested mark sitting in front of these guys. Play Gleeson loose he's just been smashed by Bob Murphy in the air. Not really bobby's strong suit.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Need Ambrose back.

Gleeson has compiled a far better season than Hartley this year.

 

[Teflon Dons]

Gleeson has compiled a far better season than Hartley this year.

Bit of a baptism by fire this year though don't you think? For mine he's been holding his own pretty well considering.

Gleeson has been really overrated imo. He's good when he doesn't have to be accountable for anyone. Gets murdered 1v1 and in most aerial contests. Not that fast. Not the best user. What's the hype

 

[Doss]

No, Gleeson's been better than Hartley this year.

That still doesn't mean Hartley is trash however.

 

[eth-dog]

Gleeson has compiled a far better season than Hartley this year.

Yep. Hartley's still compiled a very good second half of the season where he's taken the scalps of multiple probable 40+ goal forwards this year.

 

[Heppellfreak]

Better than bags, Hurley and Gleeson today.

I really didn't think he was poor today. Was definitely in our top half of players for mine.

We have given him some mammoth tasks in his second year and he isn't doing all that badly.

 

[JayJ20]

GTFO this club.

Umm he held his own and did his job well enough.

 

[TheFrenchCut]

He was ok, but got away with a few holds at various stages. I don't remember him holding opponents anywhere near as much last year, but he's definitely octopussing it in 2017.

 

[eth-dog]

Named in the bests by the coaches.

 

[yodellinhank]

Hartley is a proper whipping boy. Cops it off supporters even when he puts in a good game.

 

[Loonerty]

Lol, he killed plenty of balls yesterday. Weird comment.
