Is Miller responsible?

[krustyman]

dont get me wrong, but some of the draft players on the list have me a bit worried.

 

[Bojangles17]

Can someone please clarify if Greg "messiah" Miller is the man responsible for selecting JON at 8 and Meyer at (was it 14?).

Have you ever seen anyone with less an idea about playing football as JON? His lack of awareness is as bad as I have seen. I remember at the time people being surprised he went so low in the draft. What is it that Greggy boy saw in him? Certainly not skill or ability.
Don't start me on Meyer!

Didn't Terry say that JON would "silence his critics this year"?

MMMM.

Surely it is time for Greg to step down?

same bloke that nabbed Foley, thurstfield and King boofhead, cant pick winners every single time...How are Dowler at 6 and Varcoe travelling..me thinks they are equally as dismal, it's a narrow minded pot shot straight from the clacker, and for all its worth that where it should stay

Isn't this his(JON) third season?

Meyer is as good a kick as brown....now that is funny!

Executing skills at VFL level is vastly diferent to AFL level.



NO, I am not 12 and neither Meyer or JON is worth the club wasting precious spots on the list

He had OP previously and so was severely restricted, but can't recall his first preseason injury after being recruited.

Agreed RT, but to be fair it was a very small sample in 2007 for Danny, doubt he had 20 disposals all up.

However his stats for the 14 games he played in 05/06 have his disposal efficiency at 86%. Top notch really for disposal - just cant get it enough at this stage. I would play him in the back pocket and use his best asset (his kicking) coming out of defence or to do the kick ins. He is a good body on body player. Only knock would be his pace.

isnt meys supose to be fast??
in the afl games his pace is like 95 out of 100

I suppose that Meyer's hip injury means that he misses every target he aims for? Have you seen him kick?

as soon as i read this statement i knew i was reading a post from someone who has NFI!

Meyers problem is he doesnt get the ball often enough to be a dangerous player.

His biggest asset is he is one of the best disposals by foot at the club. His kicking is great, if not elite. He has shown this many times at games i have been to and games i've watched him play on tele.

He's the type of player that always gets himself into a good position to dispose before he kicks. will wait for the right option and not blaze away.

i think youve had one sausage roll too many

white hasnt done much either for being an ealier pick than meyer and j0n and he's had way more time.
btw who picked fiora b4 pavlich anyway?

Really? White went before 8? Surley not!

I thought disposals included handballs as well.

So Jon has had three pre-seasons and I am trying to clarify if he was "injured" for the first two or just one?

Either way, he simply has no idea what he is doing. Another Andy krakour who will waste 6/7 years of valuabel time for very average return.
ditto Meyer.

Agreed fiora was a big mistake but is miles better than JON.

 

[cotcha now]

yeh rfc site i think wrote that white was pick 5

yeh fiora was better then jon by a long shot

I think that was no.5 in the pre season draft
