Player Watch Mid-Season Pick #11 (2023) - Quinton Narkle

[Launchpad McQuack]

Also a decent pr0n

3 blondes take Koch

 

[PJ Power]

If Bonner runs out of steam and Duursma can't find his best form after recovering from injury then I'd be more then happy with the thought of Narkle getting a gig on one of our wings.

Exactly what I’d do.

Best case scenario is that we can play out the second half of the year with Duursma, Bergman and Boak fit and in form on the wings, but Narkle is as good a back-up as Bonner and better than Sinn or Mead at the moment. He’s also ideal in the sub role.

 

[JimmyBC]

I'd play him next week

 

[Ford Fairlane]

As well as getting 29 possessions Narkle led our tackle count with 7.

Looks very fit too.

 

[Schulzenfest]

His best position is midfield but his defensive pressure was very good today as well. I don't see anything Jed McEntee can do that Narkle couldn't do better.

 

[Incarnate]

Mac & Cheese is staying on the menu brah!

IIRC, that's a pretty impressive stat line for SANFL.

 

[yepits2020]

Having thought about it, he probably was the best available and insurance for our midfield. Which I thought Dumont was. Btw, Dumont had just as good a game yesterday as Narkle. Mead, Sinn and Jackson is just a peg below at this time. My view is that if Narkle was in our squad earlier, he would have come in when Boak was injured.

“We haven’t spent much, or any time [with him] going through our game plan. It was just kind of ‘get out there and the guys will communicate with you out on the field what we need'.

“He took a bit to get in the game, but once he got in, it was pretty special, so a shout-out to our recruiting team for the mid-season draft pick.”

I am now dead set anti Coldsack. So a new guy arrives at the Club and the Coaches don't spent any time going through a game plan with him? Coldsack is too laissez-faire an doesn't exude a professional approach.

I think the feeling in our Coaching Panel is the Power are sitting in second spot so why worry about a side show like the Port Magpies? A liitle bit of passion and some acknowledgment of the side's shortcomings and where we need to improve would give me more confidence.

Quinton Narkle did OK, but I cannot say the same about the guy sitting on the pine running the show.

Coldsack. It must have been chilly at Alberton on the weekend.

Watching the first 3 quarters at Alberton yesterday I am shocked we actually had a game plan!

Ffs. He didn’t say they didn’t spend any time with him, just that they didn’t get to spend much time with him.

He only arrived Friday morning and still had to set up camp, get inducted, testing etc. when the heck did you expect them to find the time to sit him down for 4-5 hours of match footage to teach him game plan?

Yes he did- this is what the Coach said...

“We haven’t spent much, or any time [with him] going through our game plan."

I would have thought a discussion on how he would be used and what the Coach expected of him would not be too much to ask.

The guy was the second highest possession getter in the team. What are you actually mad about?

 

[TeeKray]

Get him into the AFL team I reckon.

 

[Pappagallo]

Get him into the AFL team I reckon.

He looks a likely upgrade on a couple of guys so best we test him now to see if that’s true. Last thing we want to do is start experimenting just before finals if injuries strike or the wheels start falling off.

He needs to learn about Port Adelaide before getting a game

Sub. Can come on late and run through the midfield with fresh legs.
