Player Watch Will Hoskin-Elliott (Retired 2025)

[CFC2010]

Didn’t take MOTY.....delist.

 

[grayza2018]

Probably exceeded my expectations given his preparation (hardly any). Only going to get better and he'll be a key goalkicker for us again

 

[Robroy22]

Even half fit he's a classy player....dangerous.

Could been bit more Effective with some bad Touches but looked Threatening when he was near the Ball.

The ball he did not run hard for in 1st Qtr showed where he was at

 

[nahnah]

he was gassed a few times and couldn't really apply any pressure, will build from here.

He be a Difference Maker when he back to 100%

 

[sr36]

It was great to see him out there again.

 

[Kappa]

Probably says a bit about how much Bucks rates him so see him rushed in so quickly

So Bucks got it right Kappa?

I would not say he got it 100% Right as looked way under done.

Says more about where Crocker Sits

I said WHE is automatic best 22 when fit, seems like he is automatic best 22 when unfit too...

Crocker playing forward again in the twos may actually have been an audition, as they would have known that there was a fair chance that Elliott wouldn't get up.

 

[Leviathan Pie]

I was skeptical off no footy, but he was solid enough & had some good moments.

Looked utterly ****ed at points throughout the game yesterday though, theres plenty to come fitness-wise.

 

[HFF]

He wasn't anywhere near fit.
Had some nice moments but we carried him physically.
The effort where the ball slowly got away from him on the wing when he was in open space and we were out showed he is still off the pace.

 

[Finnishpie]

He was way more solid than I expected. I put my hand up and say I was wrong to say we shouldn't play him.

Yep me too, didn't think he would have had the run in his legs and although he did tire, couldn't think of who else should have come in.

I watched the game again yesterday and I'm only speculating here but it seemed to me that he was expecting the ball to sit up as quite often happens with a rolling oval ball but it didn't. I don't think it was a matter of him being too tired to chase it.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Does have that skill.

I still thinks he plays taller than he is.

A favourite.

He looked like he was running in sand.

 

[Nuffsaid]

His judgement and touch first up was amazing. Second up is often the challenge so this week will be interesting.

Had 1 tackle and I'm guessing one of the lowest amount of pressure acts on the ground.

It was a damn risky selection.

 

[cakewalk06]

Looked like he had the springs back in his heels. They were missing late last season. Good to have him back

 

[The Royal Sampler]

He does have that skill.

A favourite Pie.

Haiku’d your post.
