I want to talk about these 2 players, and both will be getting positive supportive comments(of sorts)
Firstly david Haynes
Haynesy is here to stay i believe BUT for this to become reality we only have one thing to fix, his kicking. He presents, leads and marks bloody well and is a pleasure to watch in that regard, but in recent weeks its the next bit, the drop punt, that he struggles with. Now normally you'd say send em to the WAFL to work on kicking, but past has shown that is not the fix for Haynesy, so what? Well what we need to do is get him a set routine. Ive watched him and each shot he seems to have a different routine. Other players have had their kicking fixed and they put it down to setting a certain routine which they do with each kick (ie Lloydy and the grass throw even indoors). Get Suma to work on him getting a set routine for each shot, as at the moment only 1 in 3 of his kicks spin right. Otherwise he is a very good asset to our half forward line.
Now Trent Carroll
Trent did very well today, and it appears he has the favour of Woosha as he is still in the side. Now i think Woosha has decided Trent is going to be given full support, making him not worry about doing well as such and just going out their to do his best. This is what worked so well last year, now its Trents turn. So, because of this, ive decided to join Woosha and i urge others to at least consider it, and likewise support Carroll. he does put in good efforts, admittedly when we are going well, but it SEEMS he does have it in him to be a good defender, at least list worthy, so a bit of support could do him wonders. Heck late 2001 early 2002 we all wanted Green culled(well many did) and look how hes come back. So yes, as Carroll looks to be a permanent fixture, at least for now, in our backline, im gonna give him my full support along with Haynesy, and also push for CHIPPER!!! to be given a go
as he is carving up in the WAFL
GO EAGLES!!!
