Toast Hutchings

[PAdman]

His disposal isn't what we're praising though, it's the workrate, pressure and the help his gives his teammates. Some people need to realise this, he's played under 10 games at AFL level and has made the most of his opportunities.

Was very skeptical when bigtones(AKA Hutchings) pumped him up before the season started but i have to say he has impressed me and was a good pickup.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

Robbo gave him a nod in his column on Foxsports.com.au

 

[nameless]

Tackling machine!

Perhaps if Kerr could keep his rubber arm in check post game he would have found himself back in the league side much earlier.

Are you referring to an incident at the casino in the wee hours after a game?
Heard he was really pissed and carrying on a little, don't know how much of this is true.Sad if it was.

Hes the last of the ' fab 4 ', ah........ those where the years, geeze we were spoilt back then.
He could of been so much more if those injuries never got hold of him. He was special back then,
his old man wasn't bad either, or his sister for that matter. Funny how they all strut around the same.

That's the one, can't be on the turps when you're coming back from injury and trying to build fitness, especially as a senior player.

I agree with a couple posters, Hutchings will be a good depth player and will be handy during the rebuild when guys like Kerr, Priddis and Embley are gone but once we draft or trade in better/classy players I expect him to be on the outter

I've been really impressed with Hutchings this season. He can defenitely play. Averaging 21 disposals, 4 marks, 7 tackles per game in the 9 games he's played. Another player who's come into the Eagles side is Blayne Wilson. Those two have been the Eagles most promising youngsters this season.

You don't need to get it, just need to look at the purdy colours.

I'd like to express my admiration of it, but there aren't 'like' buttons under avatars. Accordingly, I'm posting this instead.

Maybe....Not sure if possible. QS did it for me.

And Lycett.

And Lycett.

Yeah but he made his debut in 2011 though I'm talking about the players who have made their debut this year.

 

[Chris_6678]

Wilson has been impressive too.

/Patrick McGinnity thread

 

[Falco]

Averages 91 DT points a game. Not too shabby for a bloke who's only just played his ninth game of AFL footy. Was good to see him kick his first goal on the weekend.

Priddis is averaging 94 DT points and has played 147 games

 

[sTeeL]

Priddis was also knocked out 1 minute into one of those games.

 

[Chris_6678]

Has above average skills and sets a high standard in training..can not wait to see what another pre-season will do for Hutchings.

 

[Eaglemaniac]

I didnt think it was his best game for the club on the weekend, but someone obviously disagrees..

[Underdog]

He's pretty much just a younger, probably inferior, version of Priddis.

At the moment he's just a new, shiny toy for many.

 

[PAdman]

/Patrick McGinnity thread

Nah, Hutchings is so much better than McGinnity.

 

[Spange]

Looking at it from glass half full let's hope he develops into a better version of Priddis.

Priddis couldnt catch Ablett from behind after being 5 feet away from him like Hutchings did on the weekend, nor can he hit a target like Hutch when in space. To write someone off after less than ten games when he's slotted into the team quite well and you're really just guessing that he wont be any good is abit strange dont you think?
