Check sinclairs possessions

He has to lift as well.

Your point?

Fasolo has way more talent than Sinclair. He has as much as Beams or Sidebottom. So thats who I will benchmark him against.

Fasolo playing a different role than beams and side bottom.... They were very much mids/wings year 2

Fas Is a gun and will soon enough tear games apart with his foot skills marking and good in traffic

Great!

So before you knock fas knock Sinclair

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

So before you knock fas knock Sinclair

Fasolo has to increase his possession rate. Its absolutely correct when I say that.

I will knock the players with the talent if I see it under utilised. Sinclair has the potential too but far less than Fasolo.

Sinclair is a dud

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Sinclair is a dud

You mentioned his name mate. In comparison to Fasolo.

The best you can come up with, is Fasolo has better stats than a player you consider to be a dud. Thats hardly talking the boy up!

Check sinclairs possessions

Small forwards can have misleading possession numbers in that firstly they are dependant on upfield delivery plus how the big forward targets are going and secondly their main job is of a secondary nature, in that they crumb - therefore they only get possessions if the big guys aren't clunking them.

In addition our game plan insists that the small forwards have to be extremely effective in locking the ball in and putting pressure on opposition defenders so we retain the ball in our forward line.

This is what Sinclair was doing, as a young small forward learning the craft I was satisfied with his pressure and pace.

Your comparing a forward pockets to guys who played HF(pushing up) wing and midfield and wondering why he doesn't get as much possessions? Harsh again imo. Don't forget pendlebury beams ect are the elite of the elite and he isn't far behind them

 

[THATSGOLD]

Saying you aren't sold on fasolo is being very harsh.. what more you want your 2nd year players to do?

Good mark, fantastic kick, good tackler, good in traffic. What hasn't sold you yet? or are u only remembering the last 4 games where he played poorly

Whats Fasolo actually done a part from being hyped up by our supporters though? His hype is over the top. You can only judge on from what we've seen and so far its no where near from (what hes going to do.) Sinclair has a decent crack and puts his body on the line every game. Fasolo looks lazy and expects it to happen. Hence his poor finals series.

You need to get to the footy more

 

[THATSGOLD]

Over rated! Which game in 2012 did Fasolo become a superstar? or even a top 100 player of the AFL?

Ironically thats what I have been saying about Fasolo.

I'm not sure anyone has said he is a "superstar" but I understand your need to rely on exaggeration in an attempt to prove a point, because you have been suffering badly since your hyped protestation that Cloke was "definitely, 100% done deal, its all over, he is gone, I have the inside info" statement.

As for Fas, he has played several very good games particularly the Sydney game at ANZ.
Against the Suns he was very good too. There are numerous examples.
You probably missed that he is playing much higher and getting more time in the middle, like I said get out to footy occasionally, its fun and you will see a lot of interesting things.

 

[Baltimore Jack]

All in good time.
With just 2 years in the system, he is easily in our best 15.
IMV that is exceptional

I believe you are over reacting to some admittedly over the top praise from some by marking him too harshly.

He's a talented you man learning the game and he will have his ups and downs until he learns consistency, but because he had some down games is no reason to downgrade him just because he doesn't match up to the hype.

He's talented and young but he has a lot to learn, I prefer to wait and see if he does before tearing into him.

Talented how? Whats he done to be so talented? His games against Hawthorn West Coast and Sydney in the finals were shithouse. You can only judge him from what you see not what you think hes going to be. Too much hype around him.

 

[JOELY]

Are you really saying he isn't talented?

Ok I'll leave you to it then. . .

I prefer to wait and see what he does before hyping him up as the second coming.

 

[jonbe54]

I prefer to wait and see what he does before hyping him up as the second coming.

And I prefer to retain a balanced outlook without overreacting to the hype, no problem that's your prerogative.

Where are you getting this from? who has said he is the 2nd comming? who has said he is the next ablett?

NOONE, so stop making shit up to justify your point.

Fasolo is a bloody good 2nd year player, and would only be behind swallow bennell gaff darling from his draft year, which is an extraordinary achievement considering he was pick 45.

You said Fasolo hasn't shown us he is talented? I won't bother arguing with you on that, if you say something so ridiculous its going to be hard to get you to see reason and logic.
