I reckon Sampi has been good this year but wouldnt mind seeing him getting more of the ball

Has the Yips in front of goals as well


Imagine how good our forward line will be when Matera and Samps actually hit some form
 
Just want to point out something.

Sampi's kicking has been very good; he hits his teammate on leads reguarlarly and often sees the pass that most players cannot.
However his kicking at goal has been not very good. Lots have been snaps due to his increased pressure on the opposing backline so he is getting opportunities that some players wouldn't get.
I think that he is probably having difficulty with setting a direct point to aim at instead of just aimimg at the general goalmouth. I'm sure with some visualisation work he will overcome his set shots inaccuracy this year.

Sampi's tackling and smothering v Sydney was outstanding. If Robert Walls was to check the official stats he would find that the Eagles no 1 tackler in 2005, is in fact Ashley Sampi (tied with Daniel Chick)

Victorians are often not quite "up with it" when bagging WA teams / players. Walls bagged Pavlich after 1 poor game and before the Freo / Melb game idiots like Billy Brownless and David Swartz called for Farmer and Medhurst to be dropped (despite their good form) - last year perhaps, but this year they've been great.

Both points are pretty much spot on...

Sampi still seems to drift in and out of the action a bit too much for my liking... If he could get in amongst it for longer periods, the critics would have absolutley no grounds to slag him off at all.

Further proof, as if we needed any, that Walls is an idiot who does not know what he is talking about. Obviously has not watched an Eagles game this year.

Woosha and the coaching staff will be cackling over their cornflakes if they read that one

Walls tries to be controversial, but in the end he just picks up any random fact and stirs up whatever he can to get readers.

Exactly what Duffield did calling for Cousins and Gardiner to be sacked.

What incentive do these guys have to get their facts straight ? None.

Most journalists are a joke....some people make history, these clowns just write about it (and not always accurately).
 
Sampi has been fantastic this season with his attack on the footy and second and third efforts. But as everyone has already said, he needs to find his kicking boots again.

I remember a thread last year which was about who you would pick to kick a goal to win the game for the Eagles etc etc....everyone was picking Sampi and rightly so. But this year I would hand the ball to Glass before Samps...

Needs to kick a few against the Saints to get his confidence back.

The thing which people sometimes overlook about Robert Walls is that he's a ********ing ****** who knows nothing about anything.

Agree Absolutely - and Matthew Pavlich agrees too.

Robert Walls is an anal wart with hair growing on it.

Sorry folks - my vulgar side comes out when I get irritated.

Ashley is a superstar who will often bob up when we need him most. This Saturday perhaps.
