Oppo Camp James Aish (Traded to Freo 2019)

[TradeDraft]

Hopefully he has learned a lot in the VFL cos he was headed for the rubbish bin

He is been lot better in the VFL where last 2 games he looked a Class Above.

He be lot better place to play better

His contested footy has come in in leaps and bounds in the past few weeks at vfl level. Let's just hope he translates it to AFL level.

There's no doubt he is a pure midfielder. His issue is probably size so he just needs to bulk up a bit.

I'll be disappointed if we bring him in now and play him on a forward flank or back flank. He needs to be in the guts. He doesn't really have pace or line-breaking ability, so if he is going to make it, it will be as a midfielder. He is undoubtedly classy and good in traffic. Also rarely wastes the ball. He's a nice compliment to other mids like Treloar and Sidebottom.

I also hope he plays Midfield as he did before getting Dropped he could get lost on a Flank.

Agree he uses ball well which we have Lacked.

Big Step from VFL to AFL. Hopefully he comes in a show why he was a very highly rated Youngster

The name change will be the making of this bloke, going from James to jimmy will turn this bloke into a champion footballer.
Look for this adjustment to have the exact opposite effect in performance to what Herriter Lumumber had, purily because jimmy is cool whereis Herriter is just plain ridiculous

Read Kirby's post in the Aish dinner thread the other day.

Just read it. Thanks for drawing my attention to that. All aboard the Jimmy train.

 

[TradeDraft]

Been good on Return. Been getting Down and Dirty. Tackling and Sheaperding.

Not wasting his ball use.

But why does he spend most times on the Bench for?

 

[Chopstix]

Pure silk, but now Buckley has sewn some steel into the tapestry.

Toot toot!

Aish did not get big numbers as played Flank and not Midfield like in the VFL. Though did lot of 1%ers like Tackles,Smothers and Shaperds.

Thought his game was fine, nothing flash but fine

Agree. Nothing Massive but still played his Role Well

Probably about as much as you could give him to be honest.

Should stay in the team for another week. Playing on a potentially dryer night against Carlton is a good chance to come to the party.

Well Sitting lot on the Bench and in the Flank where players can get lost.

So was hard for him to get Involved More

 

[Soaring Magpie]

It would be close to his best game for the club, very solid performance and can build from here

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Thought he went missing for almost the middle half of the game, but showed a bit when the ball hit near him. Ideally coming into a game against the cheats, I'd have him out of the side for someone in better form, but given our injuries we may as well leave him in the side for the rest of the season now.

 

[rand corp]

not really damaging but solid enough body of work, got a bit of it, put himself in, ran well and snatched a goal at the end, steady return.

 

[robertg22]

Coming from a very low base but it was his best game for us so far. Still not getting enough of it though.

Who be in better Form? Aish came in because of Red Hot VFL Form.

We are not Making Finals and Aish a Player for the Future so should stay in AFL Side

Aish only played 74% of Game Time so Missed a Qtr of the Game

Because he play Mostly on the Flank and not Thru the Midfield like he was in the VFL

 

[Chopstix]

We gave Marsh a free pass after last week and it paid off tonight, Aish is a Rolls Royce that hasn't been broken in yet.

 

[doodles98]

he was ok..ish. Be a good idea for this guy to bulk up though.

He played 85 minutes which was as much as Treloar and more than Tom Phillips who played about 78 minutes. But I think he had a fairly good game anyway.

 

[Leviathan Pie]

Let's get real, he was serviceable - no more

 

[SchuPie]

Thought his pressure was really good and had a number of instances where he impacted contests with a clever hand or smart knock on that didn't register stats

He was 1 of the Reasons early in the Game we had so Much Pressure on Freo. Aish was Flying Around in the 1st Qtr.

He was Good without being Great.

Smart Footballer with Good Kick which we seem to lack
