Toast Clinton Young

[Prestigerrycomo]

Best game for the black and white IMO today, some brilliant hard running and delivery into 50. Top game

 

[Baird]

He was good but it was overshadowed by the performances of Swan, Sidebottom, Beams, Pendles etc

 

[Shellz]

Shame he got injured

 

[ZEV]

Chapman didn't appreciate his game

 

[Hodgepodge]

Always good to see Clinton Young perform against other sides, of course.

He was uphill skiing, at his best when the game was going against Collingwood.

 

[millsy29gopies]

Didn't hear much about his injury on the coverage, hope he's right.

 

[Prestigerrycomo]

Shame he got injured

Hopefully not too serious, I thought he was one who tried his guts out, especially in the 1st quarter

 

[forwardflanker]

Shame he got injured

Didn't look that serious, maybe a corky? He might get a week anyway for the hit on Chapman

 

[Tbone McGraw]

I was so happy when we recruited him as we need his kicking skills.

Today was his best game for us.

Doc Larkins says off for scans on outside lower tibia

 

[Jonno94]

Was excellent again today and the injury didn't look too bad, I think.

 

[Ron]

Was excellent in that second quarter.

Not sure of the severity of his injury, but he may miss a couple of weeks from the MRP anyway.

 

[Pera]

Was vital in getting us back into it during the 2nd quarter.

And he has corky. Will be right if he doesn't get suspended for next week.

Thought the ball was up for grabs amd then he braced himself for impact. He was in mid air though but really, who knows?

 

[suspect footskills]

Gotta love that the bloke considered the softest in the team nearly split Chappy in half with a beautiful hit.
Completely agree today's game was his best so far in the black and white.
He is still finding his place in this team but he passed todays pressure test and really adds to the team.
This team is starting to look pretty damn good.

 

[Scottabe_pendles]

Wow im surprised at a toast - - I'm on the absolute opposite, if watching replay you can find 3 of his 13 kicks that actually go to a man or go to advantage then the toast might be deserved, butchered it with every kick and didnt lower his eyes at all... got a free and a fifty and still managed to try to kick it fifty.

Good endevour, great hit on Chapman, but his kicking was poor - really poor

N.B someone has to be the bad news Barrett... today its me

 

[MAGPIE2013]

even if he is not injured seriously, i still dont want to take a risk with him next week. Give him a week of to absolutely make sure his leg is okay and then bring him back for the game against adelaide

 

[Smoky]

Surely kidding???

 

[MAGPIE2013]

Surely kidding???

i think young should get of the mrp. You can clearly see that he jumped in an attempt to get the ball and as a result he accidentally knocked chappy in the head. FOr me, if it does get look at and not throw out, it should be reckless contact at most. If young does get suspended for that then i really fear for the future of our sport as the higher ups are slowly loosing touch with the contact aspect of footy.

 

[Pera]

Strikes me as a big game player.

You are doing a disservice to Young. He was important in keeping us in the game then giving us drive into the forward line. One of our best 2 or 3 in the first half.

This. PLus also young was able to seriously release all that pressure in our defensive 50 using his long kicks.THe best of all was the fact that he absolutely cleaned chappy with a very nice bump, gotta love the way he played today.

 

[jimmy35]

He was pretty good again, building nicely like big Jesse.

Good to hear that it's just a corky, from where I was sitting after the game I was watching him limp a bit when talking to Bucks.

As for possible suspensions / injuries, what a difference it makes knowing that you have good quality players waiting in the wings. God I love the maggies

 

[Optimax]

If he does nothing else I will forever remember and love his clean shirt front on chapman.
I know he'll get a week, but that was a thing of beauty, if you want to legally hurt an opponent that's how it's done.

 

[kelvarnsen]

Young was very good today and his absence was very noticeable. Get well soon dasher!
