Bloody hell, I wish he could make me eat my own words here but he doesn't give me enough to suggest he'll be a tireless worker when the game is hot. Is it time we give another kid his spot and retire him to Bendigo?
 
quite disappointing, especially after his gold coast bonanza. he wasn't terrible, but he just wasn't there either way. bendigo him for a while. (yes, i just used bendigo as a verb. :p)

Makes the Stanton bashing even worse, do supporters not watch this guy play? The biggest front runner I've ever seen, only plays well when we're 7 goals + up.
 
DT score of -1 takes some doing.

Short memories??? Who exactly would take his place?

short memories?

we don't care about 8 goals against the gold coast. when has he played a game of substance, or even a quarter of substance, when it mattered.

must, and will, be dropped.

2 weeks ago when he broke the game open against West Coast would be a start?
 
meh. that was 10 minutes of football. he's proven to be nothing more than a downhill skiier thus far.

he is capable of a lot, and he needs to do it over 4 quarters, every week.

2 disposals, 3 FA and 1 tackle in a half of footy is a joke.

Wasnt getting too excited about the GC game from him, was pleased with his game against WCE and would have love to eat some humble pie if he continued his chasing and hard work.. then tonight. :thumbsd:
Was calling for Colyer to get a full game this week, but guessed Hirdy had to "reward" Reimers. :mad:
 
Reimers problem is that he plays a combination of defence/midfield at Bendigo.

Has not played forward at all.

He needs to find a way to play effectively as a forward.

Most disappointing part about tonight's game is that he didn't feature at all - Didn't get to enough contests.
 
Does it every year. 3 fantastic games in a row, makes everyone think he's finally turned the corner, serves up pure shit for the next 2 weeks, dropped to the magoos for the majority of the year, makes a couple of cameos when we have injuries and stinks it up, back to the magoos, preseason, repeat.

Should not be in our best 22.

Shouldn't come back for the rest of the year unless he is absolutely blitzing it against the best VFL teams.

I'd say the complete opposite.

He needs to remain in the team and be given time - regularly and consistently - to find his spot and get used to his role, and indeed the pace and general step up in quality of AFL over VFL.

He has been constantly in and out of the team (due to both injury and attitude) during his career so far. He clearly has the talent. His attitude seems to be better this year.

Give the kid some time FFS.

Shouldn't this thread be closed for being critical of an Essendon player?

Nah, slagging Reimers is ok, something to with 'running'.....
 
We've got plenty of Small to medium forwards now days, it's hard for every one of them to shine every week. (Zaka, Jetta, Crameri, Monfries, Davey etc).

Yes he had a bad game. But he had a very good three games in a row.

He is an impact player. He changed the game for us against West Coast. If he, out of lazyness didn't follow Hird's directions, then he will be dropped. But to start a thread 'roast' to one of our players, it baffles me when every one bar a few should escape the same treatment following this game.

Fletcher should get one first, how the hell he allowed Vickery to kick three is beyond me.

Slattery was pathetic. Caused turnover after turnover, he has no place in the team, because he offers nothing going forward.

Hibberd is not comfortable with the pace of AFL yet. Everyone here used to bring down a good palyer in Houli, this bloke Hibberd kicking is supposed to be good but it doesn't look like that to me. Shockingly turned it over.

These are just examples, but you tossers are good at singling out players and have made Stanton's form affected by booing him, now here to get Remiers, are you? Quite pathetic if you ask me. You could tell Stanton was feeling the pressure with every kick or handball, not from Richmond but his own bloody supporters. :eek:

Every team in the AFL would not pass an opportunity to have Reimers or Stanton in their team or squad for that matter. Remiers's got everything modern footballers needs, now he needs continuous games and a specific role in the team. He'll be a good player. So go get f**ked....
