I thought that was his best game this year, got plenty of it, many hardball gets and tackled well. We be a superstar.

I agree. Yesterday's game was worth at least 10 senior games of footy to him in terms of advancement. His game yesterday was light years ahead on any other game he has played this season including Sandringham.

Along with Garland and Warnock, getting more game time can only increase his performance. I thought all three did admirable jobs yesterday, and will only be better for it.

Was quite impressed with his one-handed grab on the wing yesterday....

Bucks is going to be good...there's no doubt about it. I think his disposal is getting better by the week.

I really REALLY want to like him, but I get extremely irritated with players who play like millionaires but can't get the basics right.

Still, he's got plenty of time to improve all that... and at least he's quick

The ones that play like millionaires are the ones that take the game on and fail. The great players are the ones that take the game on and succeed.

The rest are too scared to fail so they do nothing, and when the game is over they [censored] and moan about the ones that tried and failed.

bell did that for ages. in fact he still does it sometimes.

he has had 20odd touches for two weeks in a row now. maybe not all 20 touches were great, but its an acheivement. im not sure CJ has ever managed that ? (although im not sure if CJ has ever played two games in a row!).

he has some nice attributes; pace, daring, self belief. hopefully he improves his kicking and learns to sometimes take the first option...

Agree.......I'd like to see CJ get some more games as well, and hopefully he will get his chance and take it!

We say this all the time about CJ and he fails to deliver in each game. Remember the beautiful pass he delivered to a North defender in rd 4.

CJ is a poor mans Simon Buckley at the moment.

here here!

Bucks will continue to surprise people here if he keeps getting the opportunity to do so and i hope he does cause he has been a player that has excited me for some time with his potential.

Continuing to show improvement but needs to learn how and when to work hard when we don't have the ball.

What do I mean by that?

Well I took a Queenslander [rugby union player] to his first ever live AFL game last Sunday and was pointing out to him who was good at reading the play and when and how fast they reacted to situations to prevent the opposition from having space to operate in. On cue the veterans Brad Green and Cam Bruce [YM will be having palpitations] provided excellent positive demonstrations of how it should be done.

A few minutes later Bucks was the centre side of centre half back as the Dorks were attacking down the HFF on the outer side...Bucks was ambling back when he should have been bolting back to block the space, even the Union rookie spotted it. Anyway the end result was a Dork running into the space between CHF and FF solo and kicking a vital goal.

I mean this as a constructive criticism as its a discipline that can be taught, so I think there is a lot more room for improvement, which is exciting!

was that two games in a row? or two games with 20 possessions? lol
