Oppo Camp Tom Phillips (Traded to Hawthorn 2020)

[DopeMaster]

Dastardly form this evening. Needs some time in the twos.

 

[slugger01]

Needs to go back to the twos at Oakleigh Chargers!!!

 

[Kirby]

How bad is he playing? It’s amazing in his ability to hit new lows just when you think it’s impossible

 

[stevebbb]

Do the Cats still want him? I'll take a meatpie and a fridge magnet at this stage...

 

[legendstatus]

Take the rest of the year off to get over your Hammy mate. We need you back next year fit and firing ( after being traded )

Try for a late 3rd and free up some cap space, to help pay for DeGoey, Moore and Daicos' new contracts

 

[danielnajdek]

This guy has fallen off a steeper cliff then Jaidyn.

 

[Leviathan Pie]

He's not worth anything, so unsure what we do with him - considering his contract ends at 2021.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Might need to see how he goes next year with longer quarters, and more space to roam on the MCG.

 

[OniAu]

Reminds me of Jordan Russell. One good season. Then putrid performances from there on.

Read that as Oakleigh Clangers

Yea this season is not conducive to Phillips strengths. Smaller grounds, shorter quarters so less opportunity for him to use his endurance to find the footy and more pressure on his disposal which highlights his weaknesses in pace/agility/pinpoint disposal.

Would be good to give someone like a Murphy/Scharenberg a run on the wing at least to provide a marking outlet

Phillips was suffering through personal tragedy last night, so I don't think he should have played. But his performance was more of the same we've grown accustomed to this year. Wilting under pressure, no penetration nor damage when he has ball in hand, and no pressure applied to the opposition.

Free up cap space and replace him with a youngster that is worth developing.

Would love to see Rantall given a crack in his place. Endurance monster but is more of an in and under player

I couldn't agree more, he has been crap all year and his continued selection baffles me. Last night his sh*tness hit new heights and his efforts made Ryan Lonie seem like Captain Courageous by comparison. I don't expect every player to be Gavin Brown but FMD he looked scared out there.

If you're not right to go, don't play Flippa.

Injury is a blessing in disguise (or not really disguised at all). He's one of Bucks' favourites, so he was probably not going to get dropped no matter how big a stinker he put up.

He, WHE and Stephenson can't all play in the same team. I know which one I'd stick with

Which season was Jordan Russell good in?

What was tom phillips personal tradgedy?

 

[gouki88]

Which season was Jordan Russell good in?

At Carlton in 2010 he was solid, but that was it. Complete outlier

Sharenberg should be playing Maynes defensive wing role.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

What was tom phillips personal tradgedy?

Death of grandmother per commentary.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

Last night wasn't an outlier for Phillips. He has been terrible since halfway through last season and even worse this year.

 

[jackcass]

Pass me the popcorn, this should be fun....

The only guy that could be traded to another team AND be in our best 3 when we next play.
