2009 query-

Post: # 1285693Post saintbrat »

I've just watched a VFL game from 2009
Rhys stanley has grown.
Jack Steven showed plenty- and as he can do with Nick now managed to hit sautner on the chest a couple of times
player in jumper #77 is now a cult figure

But why would Jimmy Gwilt have been playing for Sandy?

Jimmy didn't even play in the 2009 grand final...he was an emergency, was not in the best 22 back then.

Was used as a defensive forward with as much flair as Mini had towards the end of his saints career. Was really a revelation when he went back though.

Jimmy took it to another level in 2010. It was weird. The team dropped slightly, but he was a real standout in 2010.

Why did his development stall after a bright start.... Gwilt?!

Always a good kick, always a coosed decision maker, always had an excellent size/speed combination

Interesting??

I think 'defensive forward' has killed more than it's saved.

He was playing in the wrong position. He is much more suited to a half-back flank than a half-forward flank.

Are we supposed to guess who was 77. Cult figure. I will go with Milan Faletic. Didnt think he was playing until that age. And why was Riewoldt hitting Sauntner on the chest?
