Player Watch Lachie Sullivan

[MagpieExcalibur]

decent depth player

 

[domus]

A very clever little player with lovely deft touches and kicks his strength. He rarely fumbles.

 

[rand corp]

Was everywhere early when the game was up for grabs

 

[jimmy35]

Was very good early when the game was hottest the Sulliman.

Hand a good game. But he is still that back up type. Did the Jarrad Blair fill in for a forward roll. If and one of Schultz, Harrison or (yes I know he doesn't play for us) Joe Richards was a available then he wouldn't have got a game.

we should get on the front foot and offer Sullivan a contract extension till the end of 26. Has started the season very well. Was BOG last week in the VFL and last night was very serviceable. He’s very handy depth, can play mid or forward. Fairly cheap coverage and a perfect example of how squads win flags.

Both him and Long have been excellent pick ups

 

[Rorzza]

Thought early in the game when the heat was one , very good link up player across the half forward line, pleasing, stepped up when needed!

He’s the ideal kind of player for that 25th-30th range of depth. Versatile, hard at it, and seems trusted by teammates

Agreed, you can bet there are other clubs interested in him. I for one don't want to lose him.
He gives 100% whenever he takes the field.
Plus he's a member of the first kick goal club, is there a name for that?

 

[TW Sherrin]

Another who just needs opportunities to become a solid league footballer.

Kicked a goal with their first kick club

decent depth player

I’ll up your ‘decent’ to ‘very good’ depth. We are lucky to have this depth of talent for our midfield.

Lachie will be in and out of the side, but I like his attitude through this. Just does what he’s asked to do, and seems grateful to be given senior games.

I hope we hold onto him, but I can think of a couple of struggling sides where he would be a regular senior player.

 

[stormskye]

said it before, I’ll say it again. Deserves another contract. Very handy depth. And last night a perfect example that squads win flags

 

[Soups]

Yep good depth! Can come in at any point and play his role.

How good was that 1 hand mark on the wing?

 

[BillyElliott]

So glad he was playing last night & played well after that silly free kick paid against him last year.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

That one handed contested mark!

On current form he'd get picked up by another club if we don't. We don't lose much when sully comes in

Hope his contract gets extended for another couple of years, I don't want another club grabbing him.
He gives 100% every match he plays.
I've been a big fan since his first match when he kicked a goal with his first kick.

100% agree. He's a smart and tough footballer who executes his role when given an opportunity. Playing devil's advocate here but what would his trade value be? 3rd round? Sullivan will be 28 in September. Is it worth cashing in if another suitor came for him?

 

[sideswipe]

Deserves one from us, and even though he is a bit long in the tooth, wouldn't surprise if other clubs didn't throw him a bone.

Quite proud of the dog and sheep reference in one sentence.

Nah. Trade value for players who are north of 25 and not best 22 is zero

 

[rand corp]

More than handy squad player.

He's slow and small, but works his tail off and has great hand-eye coordination. Slick below his knees

 

[northcotehead]

I'd love to see him get an extended run as a starter.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

He’s not that slow and he’s obviously strong for his size. Playing fantastic and deserves a run. I can see him in our best 23 in the future, even at full strength he’d be a super sub.
