Griffin Logue 2017

[theGav56]

He is imo the perfect big body bull midfielder. He is needed in defence at the minute but he will be headed for the midfield in coming seasons. Looking forward to him splitting open packs just like Morabito was going to be doing for us.

I have the same thoughts. Actually I really like what the club is doing in developing players who can play multi-positions generally. The games are becoming so fluid and I think this can create some significant advantages and mismatches.

I sometimes feel like every wrap I give this club ends up cursing it but thankfully I'm not that superstitious, having said that I need people reading this to know that I'm aware at the absurdity of some of the following claims...

Logue's stats line up amazingly with McGovern's, in fact they're pretty favorable in some key areas including disposals 20.5 to 15.6, intercepts 12.5 to 8.8, intercept marks 4 to 3.7, contested possessions 10 to 6.7 including ground ball gets 6 to 3.3 and tackles 3.5 to 1.1 also rebounds, inside50s, meters gained and score involvements are in Logue's favour. In other important areas McGovern's barely ahead such as contested marks 2.1 to 2, marks 7.6 to 7.5 and kicks 10.7 t 10.5. When some of the negative stats such as clangers and turn overs are adjusted to be viewed as per disposal then once again they're better or about same as McGovern. The 1%ers, defensive 1v1 win percentage, and kick efficiency are the only available stats where McGovern shades Logue.

Wow there is alot of blue and green on there!

 

[electricfeel]

Really amazed at how well and easily hes slotted into our team after a year out of footy. Has kicked a few clangers but otherwise very solid down back.

I like that Pearce and Logue aren't afraid to attempt risky options. Invaluable to have KPD that are capable in that regard. Execution is somewhat lacking for now though.

Wasn't that long ago that we couldn't transition from defence. Huge difference now.

 

[Taylor]

It would have been a shame to judge a key tall in their first couple of years.

But we still need to sign him to an extension.

We transitioned very well from defense to their attack for a while there. We were the kings of center back turnovers.

They are so good I almost look forward to the opposition getting the ball inside our 50 to see what our guys will do. It is where our best work is.

 

[Dockernut]

So, it looks like I’ll have to eat my words on this bloke too. Settling in very nicely and given he’s such a confident beast already I can only see him improving the more he plays.

 

[mayne man]

How good was he today? went absolutely beast mode And didn’t lose a single contest.
Looking to be a good pick at 8 now.

He seems to be relishing the challenge.

 

[E Shed]

So strong, fast, mobile but thank the gods, seems to have a great mind & composure for the game too. Looks like an inspired draft pick now!

Looks like he loves every moment out there. Great signs

 

[fnerd]

Yeah great sign in that with extra responsibility of now having cox out (along with hammer and AP) is really stepping up.
Has always had all the tools , just needed the game sense and nous to go with it and that’s coming with more experience

 

[mightymouse75]

Turning onto a beast. Moved past Wilson & luke ryan this year.

 

[Snuffaluphagus]

Starting to show those "Rance-Like" attributes we've now had two coaches use. Skies the limit for Logue

 

[Freomaniac]

Some people thought he wasnt going to make it.

I had a feeling he was going to be a solid 200-250 gamer for us. It was a question of where he was going to be suited in the ground.

 

[Heart Of Purple]

Obviously wouldn't move him anytime soon but I do wonder about his potential to have bursts through the midfield. He's a super rare combination of power and speed and so strong in the contest against smaller boys, could see 5 minute bursts from him in there being a real asset in a couple of years (obviously depending on how our midfields going and the defensive structure).

 

[simpsonwillo]

If we can get Hamling and Pearce back playing consistently with Logue , Ryan, Wilson and Young, that’s a really strong backline. Logue is going to be a star.

How good is he going to be when he doesn't have to play on guys significantly bigger then him and can almost be our "swing" defender. His versatility to play big and small, appetite for the contest, strength and speed are something to behold down there.
He's one of this guys that looks like he might be able to translate from elite athlete to elite footballer.

 

[Taylor]

He could be a super tagger that will destroy you if you go forward and beat you everywhere else.

 

[Jezzitizle]

Nah leave him down back where he does his best work.

 

[Cesoir]

We'll a p

 

[Docker82]

How people can see him play down back then want him to play elsewhere is beyond me...

I’ve been have this argument with people for two years. Its the equivalent of playing Nat Fyfe as a key defender because he’s a good mark.
