Toast Jarryn Geary

[#gosaintas]

Loved that speccy he took. Was going to fist it away, then thought nah I'm on a roll and clunked it.

I reckon he tried to double fist it away but it got stuck between his fists. Great game by him.

I can't understand the massive improvement in his skills, I reckon as payback against the Suns he consumed Gabletts soul.

A whack and a pat. All you have to do is say " I was wrong " and then you too can join in on the Jarryn lovefest.

If AA selection was about selecting the best AFL "team" he would be a lock for small defender.

He was just on SEN, spoke very well. Definitely captain material.

Great post...Gears seems like the type of bloke who was always overlooked. He's a talented player, he won the B&F for Bendigo in 2006 as a teammate of Joel Selwood's but was overlooked in the draft then taken with pick 58 at the 2007 Rookie Draft. Took him 7 years to reach 100 games.

I've always enjoyed supporting the underdog, always felt a soft spot for blokes who give their all to the cause but never get the plaudits they deserve. I've always been a massive fan of Gears and now he's showing everyone how much of a player he can be/is becoming.

Lyon Syndrome
But I don't think you are correct. Geary trains hard and the coaches seem to favor him.

2008: Geary 10 games, Armitage 13 games, Eddy 13 games, Charlie Gardner 12 Games, L Fisher 9 Games , Fiora 10 games.
2009: Geary 15 games, Armitage 3 games, Eddy 10 games, Steven 1 game
2010: Geary 19 games, Armitage 9 games, Eddy 10 games, Steven 8 games

He then pretty much took over Baker's spot after Baker was shoved out the door. ( and owned it ).

Much of the reason Armo didn't get a gig is because our midfield was Hayes, Dal Santo, Ball, Montagna

It was more when it came to the crunch though, in the big games.

Gears or Armo couldn't get a gig in either grand final, even when Baker had a broken toe and Robert Eddy a broken cheekbone.

His two long bombs were the highlight of the day for me yesterday.

I have always found his disposal frustrating to say the least, but his form (and his kicking) in the last few weeks has been unbelievable. Certainly deserves all of the praise he gets.

 

[saintastic]

That mark, those goals and that great interview this morning - I have never roasted him, although have been frustrated at some turnovers like many. Have appreciated and valued his endeavour more, that means a lot to me, so many more talented players go around head down when things are not going their way, never this man. Seems to have found a new, well, "gear"!!

 

[gobbles]

I'll do something here most people on this board wont. I'll admit I haven't been the biggest fan of Geary, this year he has been growing on me tough, and after yesterdays game, wow wee, those 2 goals ! awesome !

A team full of players with Geary's attitude and approach would never lose a game.

They would never win a game. The ball would be kicked out of bounds every 3 mins.

Actually you are right. His attitude and approach would win flags. Sorry, misread your post.
