Player Watch Ned Long

[Vicky Park]

Ned says hi.

 

[Pendles!]

Back from the dead. What a difference he made.

 

[TradeDraft]

His Game Style suits Finals

 

[3rdMan]

Super impressive tonight. Finals tend to be scrappier affairs, neat ball use not the biggest factor.

 

[BillyElliott]

His Game Style suits Finals

Pressure pressure pressure. And his disposal was great tonight.

 

[well left]

Absolutely fn brilliant tonight. Came out of nowhere almost.

Massive massive massive.

 

[Soups]

**** he was good.

 

[mocamagic]

Delighted with his game particularly either side of half time

 

[cfc19902010]

He was very good tonight

Credit where credits due

He tidied up his disposal very well

 

[VinnieB]

we look so much better around the ball when he is playing well.

 

[Ugene41]

So he’s a downhill skier who goes missing when the heat is on.

Good signs for September

Pretty good signs so far!

Actually quite amazing that he showed the most composure today in his first final. Great game!

Eddie hasn’t posted anything right in his whole life.

So good. Found his early season form tonight. We definitely needed a good inside mid to go with Nick so if him and JDG can stay up then we're sorted.

Really happy for the kid, I was a doubter.

 

[Scud2]

He has copped his knocks over the last couple of months, but hats off to him. Excellent game.

Eddie hasn’t posted anything right in his whole life.

There’s been a lot of posts that we can all pull out of the cupboard and remind on here
Long had a very bad patch mid to later in year
He’s played very well but I can understand the frustration from earlier in year

 

[Piesinmyeyes]

His decision making was much better tonight.
We know he can lack polish but heck he adds so much drive.
Well played Ned.

 

[ThePhantom777]

9 tackles (most on the ground) and 14 handballs feeding our best users. Well done Ned!

 

[Piestration]

Went into Beast Mode tonight and thought that was the most composed disposal I've seen from him ever. Like Pendles Red Wine, he will only get better.

 

[Jen2310]

Beast mode indeed.
Finals footy suits him. He was great, impressive given the pressure was high. He stood up.

 

[Peters_Nuts]

Ned helped us secure top 4 this season. No point potting him.

The week break will be good for him.

Turns out the break was good for him

 

[jimmy35]

Was awesome. Back to the Led Nong we love.

 

[swoop42]

He sure picked the perfect time to return to form.

Two more like that please Ned.

 

[nickyds35]

Amazing 5 minute patch at the start of the third quarter where he had a hand in 3 seperate goals!

 

[sr36]

Tough night for the whippers. Cant whip Long, Cox, or Lippa. Moore gave us a glimmer of hope when Tex clunked one on him and the he stuffed up not long after. But he danced all over those whips.

 

[Magpie Since 1986]

My apology to Long, I was one of the doubters saying maybe Mitchell would better suit given his late season form. Boy was I wrong, what a performance!
