Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
Maybe he should work on actually completing a mark
In his attempts to do the spectacular- he has forgotten (or never could?) how to take a mark?!
He dropped about 6 today he got both hands on!

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
Do our players use the grippo sap for assisting them to mark overhead?
I've seen many other KPF's with the guey stuff on the front of their jumper? Haven't seen our players using it

Yep
They say match balls are slippery as these days. Maybe needs a Jason Heatley glove? Are they illegal nowadays?
Might have had a goal to his name had Gresh handballed instead of taking a shot (didn't make the distance) ..

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
A marking forward who can’t catch it
And is slow as fk for a mid size
Unimpressive imo

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
probably played his last game on Sunday, that attempted tackle which looked like a sexual advance with a little foreplay just to warm things up pretty much would have sealed it for Ross.

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
you are a masochist .. you sprout a PhD on one hand yet sell yourself short with your totally inept grasp of the AFL.
I suggest an Orchid forum.

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
there's a fine line between salvage and failure, of coarse it's impressive.The Fireman wrote: ↑Tue 08 Aug 2023 8:52pmimpressive, so a failure in one area can be salvaged by another ?Vortex wrote: ↑Tue 08 Aug 2023 8:21pmI have a phD in AFL and horticulture, I can name you 10 different spuds in Latin and English.The Fireman wrote: ↑Tue 08 Aug 2023 8:14pmyou are a masochist .. you sprout a PhD on one hand yet sell yourself short with your totally inept grasp of the AFL.

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
Plenty of yo-yo supporters in this forum. So easy to pot a young kid on one down game.
My opinions earlier in the thread haven't changed. Take the opportunity to learn from every contest he attended. The footage will put him in good stead to improve, and if he's any good he will.

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
Drops a lot more than he takes
If you fly for a hundred, sure you’ll take 5 or 10
I’d rather 8 simple marks taken than one good one
He dropped 4 sodas last weekend

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
But it’s not his marking that’s the biggest problem
He CAN take marks
It’s his lack of agility as a medium tall that’s a worry
He is basically a kick-mark player - so if he’s not clunking them - he is useless

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
I like cooper and has a lot of potential but he needs to know about working hard in AFL He is soft when it comes to tackles we was watching as Caminiti and Poo were all over players and they are kids, Sharman was a spectator he wasn't the only one but talk about bruise free footy.
Well he is still in so maybe ross has got a bit soft and felt sorry for him but why then drop caminiti who is a hard worker and gives everything beats me.

He has picked Membrey instead, who he hopes doesn't like donuts.
How many defenders will The Saints pick in the 2024 draft ?

Re: Meh to the Sharman doubters.
Pou and Caminiti's tackling against Carlton was very poor- tackles didn't stick or they didn't tackle when they could have. Two young players learning how to play AFL.Saints58 wrote: ↑Thu 10 Aug 2023 7:43pm I like cooper and has a lot of potential but he needs to know about working hard in AFL He is soft when it comes to tackles we was watching as Caminiti and Poo were all over players and they are kids, Sharman was a spectator he wasn't the only one but talk about bruise free footy.
