My 3 word player analysis V West Coast


joeboy

Recommended Posts

I noted 12 clangers by Tyson whilst watching the replay, directly related to his unwillingness to take the first option.. I stand by my claims and am not swayed by possession numbers, unlike some others here

He was credited with 7.  As were Gawn and Vince, while Brayshaw and Dawes had 6.  He made some mistakes yesterday, but he had 29 touches and 10 tackles as well.  He worked his backside off all day and you gave him little credit for that.  

I guess that's what you get when you only work with 3 words.

Jetta - good game  6

t.mcd - good but crucial mistakes were costly 5

wagner - ok. turnovers costly.5

Frost - very good. pace and backed himself.8

o.mcd - not even close to AFL standard. Disposal a worry. Physically gets pushed aside.2

vince - skilled. big heart. got in but a few undisciplined free kicks. 6

M. Jones - good run. One of his better games. 7

Viney - the warrior. needs to learn to kick on his right foot. 6

Hunt - fading. conditions not suited. 4

Stretch - good run again. must use him more and go forward. 6

Kent - good. but I want him to develop so much more and kick 4-5 goals. 6

Watts - another strong game. Most improved award for 2016.  (if any he had kivked the goal in the last quarter) 8

Petracca - yes. so much talent. 6

Garlett - took his opportunities. 5

Hogan - disappointing again.  I expect more. Potential but not engaged.3

Harmes - in and out. 5.

ANB - Needs another week.4

Dawes - marking time. 3

Gawn - another good game. Might sneak a Brownlow vote. Deliberate handball out in 4th was disappointing.

Tyson - loves the conditions. Prolific and won the midfield. 8

N.Jones - best on ground. 9

Brayshaw - pass score 5.

 

 

 

 

 

There's no way Gawn's  handball out was deliberate. He was under pressure at the time, and it went over his team mate's head.

That decision cost us the game... Like the Vince " deliberate" against North.

T Mac, wasn't horrible under pressure, he did well under pressure, it was when he wasn't under pressure that he was horrible.

Hunt has had a better year than Petracca, Oliver or Brayshaw. Nobody could have predicted that. He is not tiring just gaining experience.

 

 

 

 

I'm obsessed with him! He is definitely getting a lot more attention now from the opposition which is why he isn't getting clear runs at the ball anymore. 

Has been such a revelation and one of the best things about this season. Should win best 1st year player (pretty sure he is eligible as it works on debut season) at the B&F this year!

I can't believe this gift to Demonland hasn't been pounced on yet. Where are all the "that's all he's marking" comments? I know it's been a long season, but has everyone on here just given up?

Yes

So you had isocam on Tyson? Surely you would have also seen the excellent blocking etc, which don't get stats?

Absolutely I did, but I regarded the slow offloading and turnovers as more significant , and therefore I classified Tyson's game accordingly!

Barney I checked Demonwiki, Eddie played 8 games in 66 for 13 goals. He must have had something more going for him that his stats don't indicate.

Tyson is a battering ram. Like Viney he is tough, never flinches but can be errant by foot.

I'm not swayed by possession numbers, however, we are building a game plan around tough uncompromising players. 

Tyson is a gem and plays to our plan.

Just a few points.

Love that Barney doesn't know What Os means.but is

 

Note That the WAToday paper had Tyson as BOG which is possibly true despite their parochial stance.

Max never made a mistake all day- the umps erred.

We could forge a river between Wyhalla and Darwin and tell them to take their base metal andgo fick themselves.

Will never buy anything made in that country ever again.

We must be poor judges Joeboy - Tyson top of the coaching votes for the game with 8 and Kent, who I criticised in another thread got 4.  Don't know why so many get upset with an opinion.  Your 3 worder is good fun and promoted discussion.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
