Andrew Gaff

Thanks for posting that @Demonland. I caught up on the last 2 pages and then read your most recent one. Very disappointing. :P

[Laughing Goat 308]

Always nice to dream I guess but maybe one day those exceptional 'free agent' players will want to come to our footy club.

Thinking about the difference Langdon made, it’s exciting to imagine what 2 wingers will do for us

[Dr.D 1,771]

gaff is one of most overrated players in the league in my eyes. He plays in a stats era thst exaggerates his impact. He gets most of his touches on the half back flank and does nothing with his disposals. He can't break lines or defend.

I don't think i've seen him lay more than 2 tackles in a game either.

I like him he would have been amazing as a free agent. He has produced highly and consistently for many years and his tackles regularly. It's not a problem at all.

Moot point. He was never coming to us.

[McQueen 17,864]

Well, he can go a get [censored] now

[ding 5,126]

Meh.

Spud anyway.

No brilliance, just on gut feel I don’t agree. 

I think Kelly is an impostor.

Bump.

I think his time at West Coast so far makes it hard to argue I was wrong.

Maybe. I don’t think he’d be half as good in most other sides. I think he’s a cat, and that he benefits heavily from the attention opposition sides put into other Geelong players.

Zing.

[Adam The God 30,120]

And what about Gaff, mate? I'd still have him if he came cheaply.

Kelly has become a more damaging player than Gaff and is several years younger.

If I was an Eagles supporter I would swap the two in a heartbeat.

You really think?

Ed: upon review of stats on footywire, there’s not a lot in it.

Kelly vs Gaff

Interesting 'Mach'...I think Kelly has been ok but not a patch on what he looked like with the Cats.

Maybe there is a reason he slipped through a few drafts.

I'm also not as big a fan as others of the GWS variety Kelly.

If he's really worth the hype (and cash) then he should stand up as a match winner tonight.

[Dr. Gonzo 24,162]

Kelly was starting to show the form he was brought in for earlier in the year before succumbing to injury.

Cheap as in he pays us?  He moves slower than I do when getting up to pay the bar bill.

[DubDee 25,590]

this is what happens when the Demons aren't playing on the weekend.  can you imagine the off season?

Big difference from being the third or 4th midfielder in a team to have to step up to being the No 1 midfielder.  WCE only had a handful of games this year with Yeo/Kelly/Shuey all playing.

They have got big issues at the Eagles, no cap space and not much youth.  

Gaff has always been an old fashion seagull he has gotten worse over the past 2 years.

I know the stats didn’t back it up, but the gut feel was just that he wasn’t that good. 
 

As you said, GWS Kelly likewise. Has put in some bloody soft efforts at times tonight. Give me a Langdon and a weak side Brayshaw any day.

Gaff!?!?!!!

Lol

I though this thread died a year ago.

Gaff had his chance and blew it.

Besides, Narrm are the only premiership threat for the next couple of years and we dont need him. ( 😁 )

[dee-tox 4,835]

Goodwin likes his players to win their own ball. 

[Elwood 3184 1,298]

No.

Of course. How is that related to Gaff in any way though?
