Recommitted Mitch Georgiades - Signs on for another 4 years

[Purple7x08_24]

I'm happy to predict Mitch won't be as good as Robbie Gray.

Different players. Mitch is more of a second option lead up forward. Great set shot. Without Dixon he's a required player.

Great set shot?? What???

His routine is very focused. He is very technical. I've watched a lot of his games.

Thank you. I needed a laugh.

He kicked 32:17 in 2021 in his second season. He also gets a lot of his shots 45degrees and to the boundary. That would indicate he has a good kick. 2023 didn't work for him due to injury. Go watch some highlights. His technique is beautiful.

He's not as technical as Fritsch or Gunston who I think are two of the best shots on goal in the game.

How many did he kick in 2023? Or 2022? In AFL or SANFL or both?

His kicking was so bad even the SANFL team was struggling to pick him.

He had been truly diabolical up until he stopped playing altogether with an ACL.

Georgiades was one of our most reliable kicks for goal until mid-2022 when he got the yips. We would always pencil him in for goals, but something changed mentally.

To say he was diabolical in his first two seasons says to me you either don't know much about the player, or are being deliberately disingenuous.

Hawks supporter mate, they are born to be facetious and disingenuous

Im completely with you, Georgiades routine looks sound enough that borders on reliable.

Can't hit the side of a barn since 2021, but a "reliable routine" means we can say he is a "great set shot".

Peak big footy right there.

You can close this one down. Will sign a new 4 year deal with Port Adelaide tomorrow as per Channel 7 News.

Bugger! Good luck to the lad. 4 years is a good deal.

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Great outcome and show of faith to sign for 4 years. Now to get him fit and firing again.

As much as I want to get excited by this…. Still no club announcement.

Giving clean space to the AA team tonight maybe? Hopefully.

You just know they're holding it to release as a distraction after a Finals capitulation.

 

[MadMundy]

Damn, not coming to Fremantle after all

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Has Port Adelaide actually announced it on any of their social media pages.?

 

[PAFCsince1870]

I suspect the club is giving AFLW some airtime before the season opener. No need to rush to formally announce the signing when it's been reported by just about every major news outlet in the country.

 

[Vindicater]

4 years is alot more than I expected.

You just said they are different players.

One's a leadup 2nd or 3rd forward. Dixon the gorrilla.

So if Dixon retires they need another gorilla type. Not a short kp leading forward to replacehim.

We already have Lord and Scully on the list.

Both look likely as Dixon replacements.
