Re: Hello Shane
Was written off far to early, and easily, by many on here. Looking forward to the replay. He kicks with precision and penetration.

Re: Hello Shane
Easily in our top 10 players.
But we need another 6 gun players to come in to our club.

Good call Redeemer!

Re: Hello Shane
Maybe he is more than just the steak knives part of the Big Mac deal.
I think we won that deal.
The Pelican knows his stuff.

Re: Hello Shane
His first six games he averaged 12 touches and kicked exactly one goal. I think we were well within our rights to be a bit dubious about him.8856brother wrote:Was written off far to early, and easily, by many on here.
The last three games he's doubled his possession average - to 24 touches - and kicked 2 goals. He's playing twice as well as he was earlier in the year, great to see.

Re: Hello Shane
Quite laughable that we were mocked widely and on here for the trade. Dunstan/ savage and a two spot upgrade to secure acres, for a bloke who is running in the vfl for the past month
Bring back the Lockett era

Maybe we had a small win in on this particular trade. But I think we should have some humility if we want to compare our trading performance with the Hawks.
Laughable to think otherwise.
Savage looks good and god knows we need midfielders. Our next job is to find him a few mates.

Re: Hello Shane
Yeah we wouldn't want to be too quick to praise the club for a win in a trade would we? After all, that wouldn't support the narrative that they don't know what they are doing......Con Gorozidis wrote:Well - lets not feel too full of ourselves or smug .

Was written off because of very poor performances in the seniors, then extended time at Sandrigham.
Very fair calls.

Re: Hello Shane
You think people writing him off was fair? Doubting him, fair enough. But writing him off?? We are so quick to eat our own. He has been at the club 1 minute for gods sake.Spinner wrote:8856brother wrote:Was written off far to early, and easily, by many on here. Looking forward to the replay.

Re: Hello Shane
While his senior performances early on were less than impressive and his demotion to the Zebras a cause for concern, the main issue with people "writing him off" was that they were doing so in the first half of his first season at the club.
He's still a young man and he had shown a bit with the Hawks. There was probably always going to be a period of adapting and settling in.
Obviously a lot of players come into a club who ultimately don't make it. However we don't always need to judge the newbies so quickly.
