Sir Why You Little 37,450 Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 Weids just might get a game next week...
Mickey 4,777 Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 3 goals and 20 disposals is a pretty good effort from the Weid
buck_nekkid 6,100 Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 Looking forward to Plapp's report. Weeds and Maynard in particular. I could see the Weids this week for Hogan, and Maynard in for a home game debut the week after?
Pates 9,697 Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 With Hogan out Weids could be a big chance next week. Great effort from him. As an MFC fan Casey winning this weekend is so important given that pathetic loss we suffered yesterday. While I'd caution swinging the axe big time, this puts players on notice. Good win Casey.

Diamond_Jim 12,772 Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 Weid needs to show something for a few consecutive weeks. Remember that coburg is last on the ladder. Very much hope he can do it.
Diamond_Jim 12,772 Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 Good to see another solid possession game from gus
Willmoy1947 4,260 Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 My two favorite players with pie eyed connections might get to "stick it up em" in the last game before finals

I suppose I had drawn a bit of a line through him for this year, but if he kicks the door down and is ready to go, he would certainly fit back in. I also look forward to what Plapp has to say on him, then, too!

Next week particularly given yesterday's poor game

Maynard must be a massive chance to debut in the next week or two. Brayshaw might return too. Keilty in the bests for the second game in a row, good for him.
demonoid 317 Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 Can anyone tell me what maynards disposal is like? Does he use it well? Pace? Get the feeling he will debut soon and would like to get an idea of what to expect.
Drunkn167 5,093 Posted July 30, 2017 Posted July 30, 2017 A few thoughts on the game, and take this with a grain of salt because I am biased and have had a few. As for the overall game, Casy weren't bad, Coburgs game style and pressure just destroyed them for the first 3 quarters, but the extra fitness and hardness that AFL listed players bring allowed them to dominate the last quarter As for individual players: Weideman- kicked 3 goals 3, shoulda kicked 6 straight. Missed 3 relatively easy goals but did some amazing work in the aireal contest, and I mean took some unbelievably marks today, did some amazing running around the ground and I would not be surprised if he comes in to replace Hogan Maynard- He's form has been amazing, was easily best on ground and I'd expect him to get a senior debut this year. He is clean around the contest, hits it hard and has great speed. A great pickup from the MFC Brayshaw- wasn't as prolific as last week but is showing good signs he is coming back into his best, did make a few errors today but his gut running was outstanding Pederson- took some good marks and had a few great tackles but he butchered the ball a lot and if I were Melbourne selectors I'd choose Weideman over Pedo going off today's game Spencer- was great in the ruck today against a decent opponent, took some good marks and was good at ground level, fumbled a bit but might be an option if they want to tryout the Gawn/Spencer combo Keilty- continues to develope and build on his game, took 3 or 4 crucial contested grabs and attacked the ball at ground level well but also made a few mistakes under pressure, give Dec another pre season and he might just become a great key position player Other good players- Strech seemed to be big around the ball today and Wagner got onto a lot of loose balls and had a big impact. Dion Johnstone also had a huge second half, had a few great moments up forward and laid some big hits and tackles . Mitch King probably played the best game of his year, dominated the ruck and took some impressive marks The not so good- Good to see Hulett back in the VFL but was pretty quiet, I doubt he'll go on much further. Kennedy was also pretty disappointing today If I've missed anyone let me know and I'll try to answer your questions For the VFL listed players, Fristch was again outstanding today, missed a few easy goals but his hands for a shorter player are insane and do not be surprised to see him on an AFL list next year. Jack Hutchins was great as the general in defence today also, Ferreira had some nice moments Thays just my 2 cents

I have no doubt that his age and size will help a great deal but wondering about how his 'game' will hold up in the ones. Cheers

Cheers It's hard to say, I don't confess to have any idea about what actually goes on inside an AFL club and I laugh at the fact that so many supporters think they know what is best, but from what I've seen and from other players who go in between the VFL/AFL system, he has an insane natural sporting ability, as shown by his time playing basketball in the United States, and I think he could absolute hold his own against the best

Question re the Weid - did he/has he been doing any ruckwork in the VFL, or just playing as a key forward? And as a forward, is he more stay at home, or roaming up the ground a bit?

Did a little ruck work early in the season but none since King/Spencer has been back, always got killed. Depends on the team they play, but he does a bit of both staying at home and roaming up the ground, hard to pick between the two
