Players who will thrive under Neeld?

Featured Replies

Who do you think will thrive under him? Personally I think Ro Bail will do well.

 
 

Bail, Jones, Morton, Watts, Gawn, Martin. Guys who will benefit from a definite role to play and a harder fitness regime.

Morton? Haha. You joke surely.

We will see.

Kid's got talent.


For some reason, I think Bate is going to impress us all next year. Or maybe I just like the thought of it being a great story. Either way, Bate is my smokey for this award.

 

I was going to list the players that I thought seemed lost because their role seemed undefined. But it's easier to list those who had a clear role: Jamar, Moloney, Rivers, Frawley, Garland and McKenzie (and to a lesser extent Watts). Everyone else seemed to be chopped and changed - and they are the ones who I think will benefit.


Jesus I hope Morton does, he cops so much on here, even in threads that don't even concern him.

What are you getting for Christmas?

Don't know but hope it's not a Morton.

Yeah I've got this random feeling as well, I don't think he had any confidence under Bailey (not Dean's fault, Bate played poorly for most of this time) but I reckon with a clean slate and a defined role could see him get back in the team.

Other than Bate I reckon Bail, Jones, and Petterd will take their games to the next level under him.

I hope Bennell but he has to average more than 5 possessions a game

To be fair - you can play well and still only get 5 possies.

Once in a blue moon, Cyril in the GF, Butcher 6 kicks 6 goals. To be fair, they were 6 possie games...

Bennell needs to average more than 10 possies a game or he's going nowhere.

Gysberts. Fitness is what he needs, it's what he's getting. Neeld can influence him like he did Pendles.

Morton. There's no grey area here, Neeld will make or break him. I think a defined role is what he has always needed, if he gets that he'll thrive.

The Fish, Clark. Permanent forward in his own, structured forward line. Will deliver.

Trouble is his tackle count was down there too I just don't think he played well enough to justify selection

Jones - the gap between his strengths and weaknesses will be less and less

Moloney - I expect him to go to the next level (could be in Top 3 of the Brownlow in 2012)

M Clark - Untapped ability, and will be a top pick up

Watts - Actually having a target to reach (through his work with Misson, and knowing what Riewoldt does). Jack is a determined young man, he will thrive.


I agree with the Bate predictions...I thought we had lost the Master, and i am glad he is staying...He does have talent, i hope now he has the right Teachers.

Jack Watts is the other one....Dave Misson will be the Watts Mentor...Jack will become elite.

Nev Jetta. Not the most gifted bloke on our list, but is an honest worker and will be prepared to do whatever he's asked. I could see Neeld taking a liking to Nev.

Agreed on Jetta

I also see Bate in the same catogory as he always seems to be trying to give his all and do the team things.

Olddee's mate, #7, shoud also show a bit more if he is given one role to focus on (forward or backline, not both).

imposters like Dunn will either flourish under a new coach or be further found out and kicked to casey!

Its fair to say they will all improve to a greater or lesser degree, sort of a blank canvas.

Very exciting for the future for what they will be able to do when fit enough!!!

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
