Zac Dawson , if you can't appreciate what he does

Post: # 1499573Post terry smith rules »

then you have no idea

Has just played two outstanding finals against respected and better opponents

Tippett 1 goal, Schulz 1 goal and in games where the pressure on the defences was incredible

He is a great defender and I am so over the constant criticism of him

Would love him still at the StKFC

He also walked because we offered him peanuts to stay.


But he is the prick for that isn't he.


Also equal best player on finals for 2010 I remember.

He played well last night but I reckon Schulz was unlucky not to get at least 3 free against him - if even one of those went his way and he didn't miss that sitter that he would kick 99.9% of the time, he'd have 3 goals.

But yes, much maligned.

Shouldn't this be in the part of the forum for opposition discussion?


Still waiting for closure ... if you get my drift.

Hawks didnt appreciate him.

Lyon likes him, but then Lyon liked Robert Eddy & McWalter...

Ithought Max was a much better player

I appreciated Zac's work in the back line playing for the Saints.

What I didn't appreciate is him walking out saying he owed everything to RL, and nothing to the St Kilda Football club in recruiting him from Hawthorn.

Everyone thought max was a much better player...

But not in 2009 when he was injury prone and not as fit and consistent as Dawson.

Who that boof head who gave a free kick away at the most crucial part of the game? (Off the ball?)
He is another judas who left for money

At his best he was. Not under an injury cloud though.

Lol, and how would Zac have performed as our FB this year. No surprise that he holds his spot where team defence is first, 2nd and 3rd priority.
Absolute donkey.

Max on one leg was a better defender. Brings to mind the laughing Fevola did when asked who he thought was better, Max or Dawson.

It was a mistake to play Dawson.

Glad he's gone

he's a flog.

was made to look a million times better by the game plan and flaoting defenders backing him up.

one on one he was man handled so many times. good riddance. was great to see classic dawson giving that free away... that's him in a nut shell.

Surely, you jest?

Otherwise, one of the dumbest threads started in 2014.

While were on it, when we played them and Roo pushed him in the back.

Too see him winging to the umpires, you can't buy stuff like that, well done to the skipper, what can you say about it?

It will always be a matter of opinion, but a fit Max would always make Zac look like a cow on ice skates.
