Another tackle from Bailey that should've been rewarded. BTW Crowden is an absolute brute and Bailey matched him.

Technique, technique, technique.

I am VERY happy with the people being given new contracts thus far

 

[Heaps of fun]

No second year blues coming off a broken foot. Can't overlook how impressive that is.

Where’s tZ?
Bad luck mate, that trade ( third rounder) to Gold Coast didn’t go through
Try again in 2 years

Can’t believe that wasn’t paid HTB.

Adjudication on this has gone way too far the other way from the way too far they went the other way previously.

Tackling is a great part of the game.

Reward it.

Oh yeah. Bailey. Love watching him play. Exactly what we need. Great signing.
Also, seems to be working real well on the area there were knocks on him for - physicality (see GR tackle gifs), contested marking ( he’s clunked a few) and his kicking is becoming solid.

Has shown the full range of skills - run, overhead marking, tackling, foot skills, but most of all, accurate kicking for goal from within 40.

As absolute integral part of the future.

Just needs to nail the goals on the run and he will excite the masses if they aren't already excited.

Wouldn’t mind more than 10 possessions a game

He's playing lock down roles mate.

Can't wait for this kid to grow. Needs good support system and he'll go massive

Yes but in those cases he has passed the ball off - ie played the team game.

That's a good trait to have.

Once he gets the confidence to nail those shots rather than pass it off he will do that.

Make sense. Can run all day, nice skills, automatic infront of goals. Can launch for marks.

Plays lockdown and gets 10 touches a game.

They love drilling that stuff in to silky skilled kids first thing up.

 

[Gasometer]

No Scotts with this Scott

Yay!

 

[shinboner magic]

Glad we made you happy

Back to bailey now - he’s a gem
And has plenty of time when he has the ball.
He’s a lock for the future on the wing and even in the middle.

Not going to get many more in shortened quarters while playing forward in the worst team in the comp.

 

[Zondor]

Two year deal!

Great News.

Can see a lot of kids with 8 on their back in a few years.

Great news.

Insightful post.

 

[Snake_Baker]

God bless you Bailey.

You might be the only reason I even watch football next year.

I hope they don't * you up also.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

I’ll be interested to see whether he gets more midfield time next year. He has some good forward craft, but doesn’t have the tank of Polec or Dumont to play long stints on the wing. He really offers something different for our midfield. Needs additional weight and needs to keep building that tank.
