Yokozuna 1,004 Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 Great game by weid, so happy to see it, especially loved his aggression. But to say we can’t fit all of him, hogan and tmac is short sighted in my opinion, just because the tigers are going well with mainly smaller forwards, doesn’t mean everyone else has too!! the game changes and develops, and new trends come and go. You just play your style and tactics and if we start the new trend of playing 3 mobile talls, and win a flag, then I guarantee everyone else will Start to ask why shouldn’t we play 3 talls. 3 Quote

Jaded No More 68,976 Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 Tigers are getting Lynch for a reason. Big forwards win games and most importantly finals. Yes Tigers and Dogs did it with just one key forward, but it’s an anomaly in a game with a 160 year history. You need big forwards and we are lucky that all of ours are mobile. I was also so impressed with how Weids was rucking. Really gave us a good chop out and gives Max more time to float down back or rest forward. Everything is coming up Weideman! 5 1 Quote

Expand So happy to fully admit I was wrong with weid.Perhaps I was just too influenced by past players that never stepped up. Stoked fr him.. stoked fr the club. We do def have a strange set of problems fr next year though. Not only tmac, weid, hogan and possibly preuss. But also frost, Oscar and lever down the other end. Because surely now frosts value is widely seen. X factor. Surely we can’t plsy ALL these guys all at once. Fascinating to see how this pans out. 1 Quote

whatwhat say what 23,865 Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 anyone suggesting hogan being traded needs their head read mobile forwards don't grow on trees and we have not one, not two, but THREE of em! 2 1 3 Quote
Dee-licious 1,954 Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 Geelong struggled with 2 mobile key talls. Hawthorn are scrambling now to come up with a second key defender. Imagine if they had to find a third. Game styles evolve based on your best 18 players. We happen to have 7 talls in ours who are all mobile and endurance beasts. Might be tough in the wet but on a dry day in September, talls get taller in the 4th. 3 Quote

Expand Jesse has good hands and is cool under close attention. I think he could be a powerhouse Inside Mid-R/R, and half-forward, rotating that spot with Petracca. Quote

Absolutely insane. 3 goals, 24 disposals, 7 marks, 3 contested, 2 marks inside 50, 4 tackles, 2 clearances 70% disposal efficiency. I knew he had talent, but for him to rise to the occasion in an elimination finals game, and be one of our best is so awesome for Weed's momentum and confidence going forward. So excited to see how he develops further. Not sure how we fit all of Weed + Hogan + Tmac into the side. Expand If those stats were presented out of context as those of an unnamed KPF, you might think they belonged to Reiwoldt (either of them), Roughead or Goodes.

Jesse had been going up the ground more to become a more versatile player prior to his injury and when you consider his better application to chasing and tackling this year, the signs are there that he will be a real contributor next year. Long Live Jesse ! Expand If Jesse was to play high Half-forward/Mid, he could afford to lose 6 Kgs IMV, which be better on his leg joints. And he would be an absolute wrecking ball like this, thru the midfield... where he suited, thru the fat part of the ground. 1 Quote
