Ablett

[acuguy]

I liken young ablett as a young Greg Williams type player, he has more speed than williams, has great handballing expertise like williams, though does not seem to have that mongrel about him as much as williams. Do you think he is in the same model as Williams.

That's an interesting observation there... Greg Williams was a great player, able to find the football despite his lack of pace. His reading of the game was second to none and although not a long kick, rarely wasted a possession either by foot or by hand.

Gary Jr is the total opposite to his dad.His dad could get 20 possesions in a game and it would be 19 kicks & 1 handball.Gary Jr could get 20 possesions and it could be 10 kicks & 10 handballs.

I saw Gary Ablett handball once... it was to himself.

Seriously though, I don't think you can even compare Gary Jnr. to his Dad... they are totally different players. One was a senastional footballer with freakish ability, the other is a young midfielder with good handball skills.

Andrew Bews went one better.He kicked the ball to himself and the umpire paid the mark.
