[Flawed Genius]

Gunna be a real long off season waiting for him to go mental R1 '22

 

[TurnoverMerchant]

This is why I’m with the believers! That was his official breakout game IMO.

 

[AnEmptyChair]

The only real negative I noticed is that there was one time where he and Cotchin started side-by-side and Cotchin ran on and Luke was trailing by a good 10 metres as Cotchin overlapped.

Haha I know it's a bit petty considering his overall performance, but I think his fitness and defensive awareness is really the only place he needs to improve to enter the ******* stratosphere next year.

 

[Reagan Smash]

Needs to hit our forwards on the tit more often

 

[pupstar]

Him and Jy were the only ones who can safely say they stood tall for 4 quarters that game and the stats show.

We don't need Cunnington anymore. These blokes have got it handled.

I still think we do.

The defensive running is still clearly an area for improvement but the jump of the offensive side of his game is brilliant to see. Really coming into his own as the footballer we thought we drafted.

im with you ! I’m a believer !
So glad we have our 2 boys from the 2017 draft

Yep, agreed. We're at our best as a team when he, TT or Stepho have the ball in their hands.

 

[Billy Not Really]

I still think we do.

Pretty sure we won the centre clearance battle tonight though. Jy & LDU fared well, Thomas and Anderson weren't providing enough.

The same Anderson who had a game high 8 clearances?

Apparently so.

Cotchin only played 80mins compared to LDU 95mins but I noticed the same thing.

 

[Lomas]

Yep, agreed. We're at our best as a team when he, TT or Stepho have the ball in their hands.

I must admit I do prefer to see TT streaming out of the middle and kicking it in. Not a knock, just think he gets a bit too much elevation on his kicks.

 

[the big lebowski]

He didn’t just crack his PB, he destroyed it.

 

[Mjs94]

PB which was set two weeks ago. The improvement is his game within this year has been huge

Definitely needs that extra preseason for that defensive running and repeat efforts, but he’s not far off either.

They fared magnificently but still need Cunners.

Third time he has re-set his PB this year.

 

[Billy Not Really]

How's the footage.



He's such an excellent field kicker, which beggars belief why he's not so hot in front of goals (Although Simpkin also suffers from this.)

But all around, really magnificent player he's gonna be. Not just 38 disposals, but 38 at a high disposal efficiency rate. Quality stuff.

 

[Psicosis]

It was never in doubt. Funny how he’s been able to stay in games with more match fitness & experience, who’d have thought?

He should be really proud of his performance today. Only going to get better.

That left foot kick at 24 seconds made me sit up.

As for the goal kicking, Boomer should be putting all the mids through their paces.

Not even scratching the surface yet mate.
