Yeo is quicker , kicks goals , is this thread too early ?

 

[steve hucka]

Yep too early, Imagine them on the same team oh boy wowee !

 

[kane249]

Yeo also isn't a filthy thug either

Come at me Freo fans!

 

[Matele]

Chuck this on the main board. Watch the melt.

Probably to early but I did mentioned to a freo supporter he was playing like Fyfe during the game. I'm hoping he turns into a suped up Brendan Goddard.

I'm bringing him into my Dream Team this week, so he better be like Fyfe.

In all seriousness though, he was breaking tackles like him and has a similar build. Loving Yeo right now.

Top 1/2 player in the league versus emerging talent

Next up - Taberner vs Kennedy

Fyfe by a very handy margin but Yeo has potential in spades to be a very good player too. Way too early.

Fyfe just an emerging talent? Thought hes a bit better than that!

Bontempelli is the other one who's similar.

And I have all 3 in my DT

Hopefully this will be a 10 year debate or if fyfe drops form i wont mind

 

[woosha24]

Boondy, your avatar is hypnotic. I...just cant look away.....

 

[nameless]

Similar body types and way they go about it - Fyfe just does everything a lot better and has done so for 2-3 years.

 

[steve hucka]

Some of Fyfes stats when he was 21
Avg Possession 25
disposal efficiency 63%
Avg clearances per game 5.8
18 goals for the year

Yeo this year so far
20
74%
2.8

I think by the seasons end yeo will have numbers similar or better than Fyfe at the same age

Definately Fyfe like.

Lets see how he goes when he cops a bit of attention like Fyfe does.

 

[nameless]

Except Fyfe is hopeless set shot at goal.

Overplayed because of his grand final efforts.

Yeo wasn't great against Port (wind obviously didn't help).

 

[Broken_Chairs]

Fyfe wishes he was like yeo

Fyfe has only copped a tag a couple of times this year - i'm guess because he isn't that dangerous (relatively) in general play around the midfield (unlike Hill and Mundy) and you can't stop his clearance work with a tag.

His two massive weapons - which make him a star - are his quality clearances to advantage (whether being tackled or not) and his ability to be extremely dangerous forward

I agree. If you have a player who can beat Fyfe for strength at the contest AND beat him for leap in contested marking then tag him.

Otherwise Stephen Hill is the most damaging player.

You want us to stop pouring cold water on the comparison?

99 times out of a 100 - you'd rather that bloke be offensive - ie Yeo...

This is where we'd need a Rowan Jones. Superb in the air, strong over the ball, diligent team ethos ... ummm... that is it

Would be the perfect prototype tagger for Fyfe.
