Reef = Rising Star 2023 (still eligible)

Won't Win it but good enough to get a Nomination for it

 

[Jen2310]

Reef has to be taken to Tassie next week.

23 wont win, but a nomination at least makes them feel good to get some recogition for hard work.
Crazy to think he was drafted in 2020 and still eligible. Its because his age, got blessed to be a december baby.

Ash had no impact today. Clearly his fitness is an issue, stops him from moving from contest to contest.. and now, its looking like Reef is ahead of him in the pecking order.
I did warn people this could happen but nobody believed me.

I believed you. I actually think ash is in danger of being delisted this year. Unless of course he is contracted which i have no clue about.

Our of contract, you're right on that aspect.

People forget, he’s less than a month older than Daicos.

I thought Ash wouldn’t end up as valuable as Henry. Henry showed he could be a match winner. I’m not sure what will happen to Ash if he doesn’t get some fire in the belly.

Only negative for me was that AJ is going to struggle to get a game. McStay, Mihocek, Reef could be a pretty good combo.

Reef does theoretically offer a bit more balance with his speed and groundwork. Interesting dilemma

He was impressive. I wasn't expecting him to play as tall as he did.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Good news he’s started the season off well. People seem to have written him off pretty quickly despite being in our best 22 before he got injured.

(Hopefully he has learned some better tackling techniques… a poorly thought out and executed one armed tackle caused his shoulder injury that ended his season).

As for AJ, I don’t see any reason why he’d be in consideration for a while now. Back to the seconds to rebuild his fitness and form, and let’s see how he goes in the second half of the season.

I'm pretty sure he tried to jump over the top of someone in last years hawks game and tried to spoil the ball when he did his shoulder. But he looks stronger now, so lets hope that puts him in a good position.

Ok my memory playing tricks on me. Could have sworn it happened trying to lay a tackle. Maybe that was a different incident, but I do recall him going off injured after it.

Similar to DeGoey previously we need to find a way to get senior games into McInnes while he builds a tank. If it’s a choice between McInnes and Johnson I’m picking the former due to his midfield potential.

He's had a couple injuries, so one of them might have been a result of a tackle. But fingers crossed he can stay injury free.

Like Murphy has done, he needs to learn how to continue to play his natural crazy kamikaze game without actually getting hurt.

Agree hell need to fire up this year or it could be curtains for him at the pies

 

[Aussie pie]

I don’t see it in Reef, I hope I’m wrong but tbh I don’t see what everyone else does. There’s a lot of hoping from the supporters that he’ll be good and I think that hope has clouded perceptions of actual form.

I’m hoping for an injury free year and for him to show us the goods. I’m hoping he’s like Josh Daicos

in the fact it took Josh a few years to show his true form, I was ready to delist him then he came good. Hopefully Reef can do the same.

He’s contracted till the end of 2024, so no, it won’t be.

The fact you couldn’t see ‘it’ with Josh, should probably tell you something when you don’t see ‘it’ with Reef either.

Your wrong

Referring to ash, then its correct. He's only contracted until end of this year.
Maybe a bit of confusion thinking the poster was referring to Reef?

IMO, you don't let talent like AJ go, hope the club is right behind him regarding his fitness and development.
As for Reef, really want to see him given some spontaneous midfield time.
These two have a big future at the club if they want it bad enough.

 

[Apex36]

Your wrong

You’re*

And yes, I thought you were referring to Reef for some reason.

No need for the grammar police.
Guess its just your way of admitting you didnt read the thread properly.
Enjoy the day
