Player Watch Pick #12 (2018) - Zak Butters

[FishingRick04]

If Zac Butters was a chicken satay, we’d be covered in spicy peanut sauce

If Zac Butters was a pr0n start he’d be slippery when wet.

...and he'd probably spell his name Zak

 

[bomberclifford]

Zac Butters will be a cult superstar for us if we can keep him.

Love the passion he brings to the game.

Zack Hinkley

 

[FallingLiefs]

His disposal of the ball is elite. Genuinely hard to explain but the angles he uses with even 3m handballs creates space where there is none. His kicks create run and movement. You add to that the desire and willingness to attack the ball. Some sort of prospect. I see a future possibility of him exceeding Rozee if he can consistently rack up 28 touches.

 

[Kiss from a Rozee]

I reckon he is a midfielder at heart, just needs to bulk up enough to get in there.

He definitely does a lot of good things as a small forward but I don’t think it suits him that much.

If Motlop was actually in form he might be in danger of losing his spot, but right now he is pretty safe I think, despite falling out of games a little due to his size.

Regardless he is an absolute jet IMO.

 

[Butters Made Me Do It]

His link work is golden

 

[Fizzler]

I still reckon Butters has the most upside of the three

 

[Chokito]

Just picked this up. Filthy

 

[Butters Made Me Do It]

He’s got that Wanganeen combo of socks-down hard ball attitude with breath-taking talent

 

[JUSTWORK]

I love the kid, but at times he looks like he is a 16 year old kid playing with men.

Would help if we didn't have to play in the rain every ******* week.

 

[Pappagallo]

Would help if we didn't have to play in the rain every ******* week.

We knew it would be biblical but played him anyway. With respect to Zak it might’ve been better to play someone with a man’s body tonight.

Yeah don't disagree, just saying.

Zak isn't any smaller than Connor or Duursma.

 

[Butters Made Me Do It]

He’s probably going to top out at a Kane Cornes type build.

 

[TeeKray]

Zak isn't any smaller than Connor or Duursma.

Rozee was monstered by Crozier last night, a boy against a man. Duursma holds his own physically far better than the other two.

 

[Forzaport]

Butters had a terrible first quarter but the rest of his game was fine. Thinking about it a bit more, I'm not sure playing him in the SANFL will benefit him all that much, although he won't be directly under Hinkley, so that's something. I'd drop him only to protect his future.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Play him and Ken should tell him That thing I said about caution, don't worry about it this week.

 

[Janus]

Guys that base their game around their speed tend to do poorly in wet weather. All three of Duursma, Butters and Rozee had below average games, but there's nothing you can do about it.

It's up to guys who are meant to win contested possession like Wines and Drew to pick up the slack in those games. They didn't.
