Bytel
Why did he only get 12 minutes game time in the 4th despite getting 6 possessions? Is this another Ball situation?

Re: Bytel
Gresham either picks up his game or as a RFA end year we look to get a good deal ….
His disposal and lack of composure is never getting any better
I wouldn’t spend $700k+ on Gresham right now…
Would rather use that elsewhere

Re: Bytel
Gresham was useless today, his worst ever game I’d suggest. However, I’d be dropping Byrnes/Bytel/Cordy/Paton before him as he generally offers so much more than the above do with clearances & goals.
Byrnes & Paton kicking is a liability.
That is where we need the improvement/upgrades. Our bottom 6 players.
The issue is Billings/Jones aren’t any better coming back.
I don’t mind Byrnes as he busts his arse, but he needs to kick less and just be a tagger (Clint Jones mould)

Paton will be replaced by Webster
Right now Gresham plays vfl and Peris might be a better option with 8 tackles in the twos

Re: Bytel
Gresham is marked too harsh at times.
He’ll get 20 possessions and 2 goals (a lot) and people still complain.
He’s a half forward and the ball wasn’t down there with any flow today, but yes, fumbles galore, especially early on.
Gresham is a top 10 player and if he was to leave then I think you only miss something once it’s gone.

Gresham also played mid had less disposals than Bytel and is meant to be a leaderAnnoyedsaint wrote: ↑Sun 16 Apr 2023 11:18pm Gresham is marked too harsh at times.

He’s had 1 good game this year
Runs like a headless chook ….hooks ball over shoulder and doesn’t look abd hospital hand passes
He’s not top 10 anything this year
Needs to pick it up or trade time for mine
Gotta give to get to grow the list
We’ve seen his best imo

Re: Bytel
But he’s well coached?
Btw - that’s a ridiculous comment
- dropped for Peris
He’s a good player who had a poor game (most forwards did)
And why is he supposed to be a leader??
He’s not in the leadership group??
Age? There are 10 players older
Games played??? Many more experienced?
He’s just a player - a small forward/mid who didn’t have a good one - happens

If was traded or left as a free agent, we’d wanna be getting overs, or it’s no cigar.
His kicking has always been an issue and stops him reaching higher levels, and just slapping it on the boot in general doesn’t cut it anymore if we wanna be any good moving forward.
I’m torn….

Stop defending him
It’s a poor game for someone moonlighting as a mid
His disposal is ordinary
He’s played 1 good game this year
He’s not a kid anymore he’s an experienced player that kids are showing more than atm
Needs to lift or he goes
What’s the silly coaching comment about?
McRae stated “they’re a good side….will be hard to beat…”
Think he means well drilled
But most on here get that
Just the daft ones still pretending coaching has made no difference trying to defend some really ordinary thinking which is kinda sad ..

Wouldn’t give him away
But not paying top dollars on current output either
He’s not consistent enough for that

Servicable vs GC and WB
Beaten vs ESS but bobbed up for a big goal when it mattered and set up another
Comprehensively shut out tonight in one of his worst games for an age.
I don’t know that he gets dropped for that and Collingwood clearly targeted him and our small forward set up and took the points in that regard.
Certainly needs to do better than that though

Re: Bytel
Lol so coaches only make a difference when we lose??
Lost by a goal kicked 3.6 in the last but it was all down to not tagging Daicos who didn’t trouble scorers and who had 5 contested touches..
Lol I’ve heard it all now …

Re: Bytel
No childish is trying to pretend he’s been “serviceable” this year when (supposedly for an elite talent) he’s done sweet fa 3/4 games
Tonight he didn’t have “work put into him” he was just shytehouse
Abs when he gets the ball more often than not turns it over
Looked like he sooked it up too when Caminiti didn’t handball to him in the goals also…didn’t rush over to congratulate..
He was atrocious tonight
Imo he gets next week on notice after that VFL
I’d rather give Peris a go and we know Ross is a fan and it’s an exploratory year right ??
