The big improver.

[rfctigerarmy]

I'm just purely going on memory as I can't really be bothered looking up the stats, but for mine the big improver in the second half of the season has been our third quarters.

We used to look like a different side after half time most matches. Whether or not it's because our younger players have more match experience or we're understanding the Hardwick gameplan better or a mixture of both, it looks like we're focusing on having solid 3rd quarters no matter what.

Jake King!

 

[Bazzar]

Jake King!

Should win the Most Improved Player award this year.

It's scary he is actually good.

 

[jko'neal]

The 3rd qtr's have been good, it's between that and two little guys I had serious doubt's over. King and Edwards

 

[ata33cro]

King! I can't believe how much he has improved and he can actually play.

Jack Reiwodlt desevers a mention. Along with Tuck and Connors.

Yeah, our 3qtr are so much better now.

We have had a few this year. Edwards, White, King, Connors and Reiwodlt but i would probably say King deserves it the most.

In my book he has gone from a certain delisting to best 22 over the last 3 months or so. He is doing a great job and he always wears the Yellow and Black with pride.

I would have to say A game plan is our biggest improvement this year. Not that I have seen too many games because I don't have Foxtel but the ones I have seen we no longer look like lost sheep. Yes we have a long way to go but for once we seem to have something the likes of King, White, Edwards etc a.k.a. the whipping boys seem to be able to execute.

This has seen us be competetive for longer periods and actually run over sides in the second half of a game.

The future got a whole lot brighter this year IMO

Also, if you measure the difference from where they were in R1 and where they are in R20, you could add:
David Astbury
Robbie Hicks
Andrew Browne
Gus Graham

This thread wasn't really about who specifically has improved.

But the tread title is "The Big Improver"

Maybe you should be more specific next time

 

[The Goon]

Dusty for sure. Didn't get a single kick last year.

It was a statement. Thus the period at the conclusion of the statement.

If I wanted to know who everyone thought was the big improver, I would have included a question mark.

Well it has turned into an interesting thread anyway

 

[rfctigerarmy]

No it hasn't Bazzar. It's gone from something people forgot about (having poor 3rd quarters) to improving. It was supposed to be an ".....oh YEAH!" sort of thread. Now everyone's posting individuals and making it like every other thread.

I try to provide innovation.

Jake King has improved a fair bit this year..
Also, so has Melbourne and Fremantle

 

[Matty Knights]

Edwards

 

[El Tigre]

Kingy, Hicks, Edwards can't be big improvers, their all 180cm all less.
Has to be 100% categorically Browne. He's probably the biggest improver in the league. Sandilands is already good, Warnock hasn't improved that much, Gawn hasn't either.

 

[RichosGuns]

Shane Edwards

I reckon this guy has shown only about 50% of what he can do. He has great hands in close and seems to always be in the top 3 or 4 in meters gained. He knows where the goals are, and can break the lines by taking them on. He will only get better

 

[1980GFVideo]

Who predicted that Jack Reiwoldt would be pushing for a Coleman medal at the start of the year.

To me he is the clear winner.

 

[rfctigerarmy]

Best quarter for the match this week.

3rd quarter continues to impress. > than King, Collins, Edwards, Riewoldt and everyone else in this thread.

Great job 3rd quarter.

 

[SteveoTheTiger]

The fact that we cant decide on the biggest improver can only be a good thing. Even if we decide to trade some of these guys it is in our best interest that they improve.
