Matthew White.

Ok i rate him in fact he should be getting alot more time this year starting this weekend. How many of you wanted him gone at the end of last season be honest cause there were alot???. He is a good player as we seen last weekend. So Terry Give him the time he should have weekly for Richmond. Get the likes of Hyde out cause White is a class above him

Think he will a good player but sometimes seems to run too fast to be able to kick well, i think with more game time and experience to break clear and steady his foot skills will improve, it's imperative that most of these fast moving kids learn that once clear they do have a little more time than they think which ultimately comes down to more talk from the senior players.

Cmon Tiges lets talk it up out there

He was great last weekend in the magoos but everytime he has had a chance in recent years he has failed to step up. Hopefully its because of injury and poor pre seasons but he might just be one of those guys who is a star at VFL and an also ran at AFL. I hope not cos I love his attitude.

 

[tony_montana]

yeah cant question his work ethic and attitude and he was our best last week for coburg, did really really well.

But I have just never rated him, think he doesnt have the quality to make it at AFL, hope he gets a chance and proves me wrong this season,

agree, whenever he has been playing afl he hasnt looked up to it even after doing well in the vfl.

Yes but have you ever seen him play as well as he did last week? ...I think not. He looked a different player, really dominated!

White is very good VFL player. Has proven nothing at AFL level yet and has had several opportunities to do so. He needs to really impress when he's promoted again otherwise the mood on him will change again.

andrew krakour dominated vfl last year and looked a different player

... in round one of the vfl

lets put things in perspective here

We won by 70 odd points
he played 2s
and people are saying he could be a good afl player
jesus ezra poyas must be kicking himself if its that easy


Still needs a bit of time i think

 

[oh_my_hat]

The Pies were very keen on White and would have pounced on him had we not pulled the trigger.

Why not play him as a tagger, he has speed to burn, and let the good players like Judd et al take him to the ball. If he has endurance this role would really suit him, especially on the rebound if the opposition turns it over. We need leg speed!

jackson?

 

[bomberz08]

Much like how jason winderlich was in his first couple of seasons.....ran too fast and in turn had bad disposals......

positives are that he is quick and when having set shots he's usuallly ok.

i rate him and he should be playing instead of hyde

 

[sante]

Everyone should be playing instead of Hyde though...

Yeah what's his story, i heard him in an interview say he's more passionate about being a park ranger than having a long AFL career.

Don't mind the lad, but get Edwards and Connors and Morton in before White, for God's sake!
Think he needs a few follow-up performances before a senior call-up.
One good VFL game does not maketh a career!!!
Heck, Tivendale starred last week. No one calling for him to be included!

Connors is a long ways off full fitness. That makes room for White.
