Heath Scotland

[XXX KINGS]

I think this guy deserves more credit, when was the last time he put in a bad game? Probably in our top few most consistent players and extremely reliable. Good skills and always puts in at a contest, can't ask for more from a player and I wish some of our other more highly touted players had the committment Heath has shown in his time at Carlton. One of my favourite players.

Congratulations on 150 club games for the Blues! Hopefully another 50 left in the tank!

Great player for us. Always performs and is one of the least selfish players I've seen, always putting the team first.

Would love for him to be part of #17.

 

[SBYM]

Hear hear.

Very well said.

 

[thylacine60]

Would love to see him banging more in from outside 50 but yeah, this fella has been one of our best second-handers since Hick-Hick-Hick.

 

[Neese]

He's been great in all matches this year

 

[TNBT]

I'm with you blokes. Scotland has been crazy reliable and effective for us for a long time, and hasn't really put in a bad game for us this year. Some of our other players could learn a bit from watching the way he goes about his footy.

 

[Blues_FC]

I think he was BOG for us last night. Always made the right decision and every time he gets the ball, it seems to settle the team.

 

[aflcliche]

He is the man.

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

^^^^ That.

Also, is playing far, far better than Gibbs at the moment. Which is seriously unacceptable...

 

[Domenic Fotia]

There was a moment in the last 1/4 when White was fumbling and Scotland came along with one touch to clear the ball.

Ah wed be up the creek without him.
Sweeps up alot.

Very very fine player well said.

After he took a big hit against Collingwood in 2009 he fumbled the ball pretty for a few weeks after and I'm pretty sure that's why he was dropped for a few weeks. His hands have been very solid since the start of last season, I hope he's giving Kane Lucas plenty of advice on how to handle the ball when it's on the ground.

Cue Stamos.

Name me a better, more consistent player in his 150 games at the club. You couldn't because one doesn't exist.

 

[Claypigeon]

He brings one attribute to the team that we often lack. .. Composure. .. Once he decides to go for the ball he is fairly solid whether under high pressure or no pressure. .. He isn't in the same class as Judd, Murphy, etc. but he is solid. .. similar to Simpson. .. Both great average players (not meant to be a slight on them). ..

 

[Bell Ringer]

Put his body on the line late in the game in a marking contest on the Olympic Stand wing.

Was very good for us yesterday. In our best 5 for sure.

 

[wally funk]

he's been one of my favourite players since he crossed over from the dark side back in 2004, but it's always seemed like he's been pretty underrated by opposition supporters. he may almost be 31, but the way he's going there's no real reason why he can't play another year or even two

 

[The Toad]

I think all the previous posts say it all, really.

Love the way he goes about his footy.

 

[thylacine60]

Need to remember he was one of our major bad boys in stages over the journey. Dunno if it was Fev leaving or baby arriving but there are no worries with this bloke off field any longer. Kudos.

 

[Kades_Dad]

I love Scotto. He never shirks the issue and was great as per usual on the weekend.

I love Scotto. He never shirks the issue and was great as per usual on the weekend. If every player on our list played with as much guts and effort we would be unbeatable.

 

[OldBlueFan]

I agree with everything said here. But remember how he started off last year in a blaze of glory too? Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to bag him, but I'm just wondering about whether there's some merit in giving him a break throughout the season.

His form seemed to taper off a little last year towards the end of the season and I for one, would love to see him going into the finals (assuming we get there) with the type of form he's in at the moment.

Maybe the bye will help ...
