Prostrate positionI didn't see the game what position did they play him in ?
Prostrate position
Seriously. Even if he wasn't great he at least put in.Prostrate position
He’s a senior player and a soft spud . Giant momentum killer.Seriously. Even if he wasn't great he at least put in.
I always chuckle at a forum user who calls a 150 game AFL premiership player a "soft spud"He’s a senior player and a soft spud . Giant momentum killer.
He’s a soft spud at the level. We’ve been over this time and time again . Even the periodic table ranks metals from soft to hard. It’s a standard in an industry and Ellis is soft in this industry.I always chuckle at a forum user who calls a 150 game AFL premiership player a "soft spud"
Ellis is what he is. The only other player who does and can run as hard as him at the club and be the link man is Kmac. This is a vital skill that is not easily replaced.
The kids aren't capable of this yet. But if you ask him to do too much or put him under pressure he can panic, run back into traffic, choose the wrong option and/or easily stuff up. The lack of Lambert and Cotchin is really noticeable for him. Out of his depth in close to the footy.
I would not drop before a few others ie Butler Higgins but once we're fully healthy (if) he's going to be on the fringe for sure.
Is that the standard from a 170 plus game player? I think we're reasonable in asking for better decision making and skill executionSeriously. Even if he wasn't great he at least put in.
Why??? Just because they play 150 games doesn’t mean there not soft.I always chuckle at a forum user who calls a 150 game AFL premiership player a "soft spud"

rubbish. if they're soft they're found out, usually in their first preseason. its a fact that some footballers are instructed to keep their feet where ever possible and their role is not to end up in heavy traffic or at the bottom of packs.Why??? Just because they play 150 games doesn’t mean there not soft.
make that 3, bolton ball hogged early in the game and mucked up an easy mark to ellis 20 out and lambert gave away a very soft free to battle when ellis slammed it thu from 35 and was recalled. ellis was important and played a real team game, basically avoiding contests but plugging up all the dangerous spots. covered more ground than burke and wills.I thought Ellis was good on the weekend.
Kicked a goal but easily could have kicked two.
The ball and play just didn't fall his way at times which happens sometimes which affects the stats but I thought he did most things well for the opportunities he had!!
