I thought he was excellent today, and in gaining confidence in the Backline( His true Position) should develop into a top line defender! A few errors but very happy with his effort today!

Agreed, with Oscar we may have something to work with, what can we get for Tom the turnover King 

Frost was epic!

Run! Frosty Run!

He was. I haven't rated him as highly as most but if he can bring that to the table it'd be a real fillip for the club.

Loved Frosty's game and pace out of the backline.

It's a shame that you are not able to recognise the potential of the McDonalds as well!

Not convinced you're not Picket.

We'd get goals kicked on us 30 seconds earlier than when they normally get kicked on us. Because his intercept markings saves goals until 30 seconds later when its turned over and kicked over his head for a goal. Anyway, This is all confirmation bias. He had one big blatant turnover goal. doesn't mean he did it all day. Were there any more?

Great today.

Hit his straps.

What an excellent player! He and Jetta were our only defenders to show up today - both McDonalds cost us too much today. 

Good game today

Terrific game from Frosty. Thought was T-Mac was pretty good as well. Oscar lost a couple of one on ones but we've got to remember he's only played 13 games.

He contests pretty well and is very quick.

 

he is also probably the worst kick in the team and this time next year you will be starting threads calling for him to be traded

We missed his run off half back last week. Can still work on his contested work, but is tracking nicely.

Definitely a defender

His pace helps the zone because he can sprint back and cover someone and that takes a decision away from the player with the ball (and from his fellow Melbourne players). Purely because of speed he doesn't have to do as much defending which is great. 

Certainly a heap to work on and I'm not even convinced he's a lock for a long career but his pace sure is exciting. 

In about 25 games Frost will pass the ability of Tmac in respect of that which Tmac dies well. He will do it without the baggage of the traits that Tmac has doing poorly. Neither are true FB and so we still need one butTom is expendable.

Won't be overly palatable to some. So be it.

Of course because some see T Mac as Jahesus H himself!

Frost is possibly a worse kick than T Mac.  He has some real strengths, but lets not pretend he wont be just as frustrating.

A rare sight. KPP height with the pace of a quick mid!

Unique specimen!

T.Mac may end up a forward it depends on who we draft.

What games do you watch ?,Mac OS good at relevantly unpressured  kicks. Id say only 50℅are actually in the direction tbeyought be. Frost is making mistakes but idsuggest is leading the mob in trying to fix them . Tmac still makes dumb dumb mistakes, unforgivable given time in system for mine.

Has some great pace. Will keep Colin Garland out of a job

Not just pace but height. When he runs at the player with the ball they have to do lollipop handballs to get it over him.

Wow, making up excuses for Sam but hanging Tom. Tom and Sam are both still young for KPD, with Tom having been in the system a full 12 months longer than Sam.
