Dean Limbach

[thommo_05]

Last thing I heard about this fella he was tearing up the vfl, next thing I know he´s been dumped. Must have fallen very quickly out of favour with terry who I heard praise him numerous times and tout him as a genuine player of the future.

would have "torn" it up 2 or three times throughout the year...enough to show promise, I was surprised of his axing...although the brainstrust have had little confidence there was any improvement left in him which was reinforced when he was overlooked by 16 clubs for rookie listing...good luck to him

 

[PLSC]

yeh lets get kingsley but get rid of limbach, 2 players who are exactly the same, atleast limbach is young and we couldve improved his kicking

signed for willy in the vfl wouldnt suprise me to see him on the pies rookie list in 2008 if travis cloke or rusling dont step it up

 

[_RT_]

When you consider that we have young Talls in Pattison, Hughes, Schulz, Reiwoldt, Polak, McGuane, Thursfield and Graham at the club, Dean would have been down the list and really would have struggled to make an impact.

 

[PLSC]

you do realise we picked up kent kingsley

they are the exact same player except kingsley is a bigger body and can play straight away

even though i dont rate limbach he's got more upside compared to a bloke like jackson who has no idea

 

[Parabola]

I thought Jackson played quite well on the foward line.

 

[RexHill]

So, they're exactly the same but different.

Yes I realise that but I am not talking about the guys that will be gone in a couple of years. Hence I never mentioned Richo or Kingsley. Of the list I mentioned who would Dean be ahead of maybe McGuane & Graham?

c'mon fella, exactly the same you reckon, do you honestly believe Limbach could kick 50+ at AFL level when he could not get anywhere near it at VFL....mate he was a mile off aaron edwards and he will struggle at the level.

The fact 16 clubs overlooked him for rookie status speaks volumes

 

[PLSC]

So, they're exactly the same but different.

they are both fast on the lead, are both rubbish kicks and both cant take contested mark to save themselves

id like to think the reason kingsley is bigger is because he is 10 years older

limbach was coburgs only decent forward when schulz got into the seniors and i thought he did well considering the crap midfield

last time i checked kingsley didnt kick 50 goals at north he did it at geelong in his mid 20's

aaron edwards is a bit of a goose but a gun nonetheless, he will make it

 

[Bojangles17]

we'll see, failed to make any impression at WC beyond his debut V the tigesand not exactly a plethora of key forwards there either...Not sure what you base your judgements on...VFL is as close to AFL as "Scale Electrix" is to Super car V8

 

[Limbach_19]

Well anyway, he will play for Williamstown in the VFL next year.

I would say it speaks volumes about his character, not his talent. He is talented but he also expects everything to come to him and dosent want to work hard for it.

he was a ********er at west coast and had injury problems

yeh vfl sides only have around 10 afl listed players playing in the matches but other than that its nowhere near the afl

valid point, need fair mix of both to make it as an elite athlete

THERE'S your answer!!!! Spot on the money!!!!

Simply not rated!!!!

 

[Delidio]

something strange and confusing happened to me about two or three weeks ago. was in ballarat visting grandparents and readng the local paper saw a bunch of richmond players visiting a hospital or something and limbach was amongst them.
dont know if it was very very old (doubt it considering it is published most days) or if it wasnt limbach (fairly sure it was), but it just confused me

yeh because so many clubs were all fighting over kingsley

i dont rate him much either but i can see a bit more in him than some others who are still around

I live in ballarat and was very confused because this happened after his axing and i wasnt sure what had happened

He still heads out with them on the town too, I think.
