Edwards the sub
-
Steve Johnson is out, Milburn comes in.
Heard Hardwick say in the pre game interview he wants our mid fielders to get back to hunting the ball, feels they have been too denfensive lately. :gobdrop

Edwards the sub
SO that means we'll start well, and once he comes on we'll fade badly.

Thought Edwards was better today, only two major eff up's and half a dozen smaller one's. Apart from that he got plenty of ball and even put his body on the line! Trade currency rose by a couple of cents I recon ;D

Edwards wasn't horrible.
He wasn't good.

Sadly that's Edwards in a nutshell.
Terrible or just better than terrible.

typical of edwards he takes some nice marks and fails to finish off with his kicking...could have had a couple of goals yet fluffed simple chances...that said, whats happened to our astraight kicking on set shots, suddenly vickers cant kick a goal any more... :o

if edwards was a women he would be a cock tease

Let alone a home and away game. What sort of matchwinner do you think he is Jordan McMahon?

Pretty sure we'd pay another club more than $1000 to take him.

Terrible or just better than terrible.
Directly costs us goals with his turnovers every single week and today was no exception.

he did do some good today as well though smokey. won some hard ball too.
i wish he just just poo in every aspect so i could hate him too :P

Doesn't do anywhere enough good things for mine Al. The mistakes are so bad they are cancerous - demoralising in the highest order. Up until this year I had been a bit of a fence sitter regarding Edwards but I just can't excuse the errors any more, despite the good things he might do.

wouldnt play him again in 2011, forget about currency, we are talking small change with this bloke
wont ever play in an AFL finals series ever, his disposal is so poor

yeah, im leaning that way myself. in a better side his stuff ups may have been able to be overlooked for the good, but not with us.

Ffs...I made the call on this bloke 2 years ago Andy everyone was up me for the rent...go read the posts.
I will also out Post, Gourdis, Nason, O'Reily, Contin.....stuff me the list is too long.......THEY WILL NOT MAKE IT.....I really hope I am wrong but poo....
All the successful teams do not have the crap in waiting that we do, they have players that when called upon can come into their side and actually cover for injured or suspended players....
We would be better off calling on a 3 legged dog..
stuff we have no depth :banghead

How many games have you seen Contin play WAT?
-
If i hear anyone say Edwards has currency i will fair dinkum spew
he should be thrown to Coburg for the rest of the year.
I seriously doubt there is anyone softer on our list and thats saying something
I for one am glad finally people are seeing the light on this spud
-
How many games have you seen Contin play WAT?
0....but we will probably waste another 4 years trying to "develop" him too.
-
How many games have you seen Contin play WAT?
How many huggable minges have you seen Gerks?
-
:lol I am a huggable minge
I doubt the club will give Contin 6 years on the rookie list. He's only been here 18 months, had a poor run at it with injury, but despite that would only be 50/50 to go around again next year.
O'Reilly is in the same boat but will definitely be persisted with. His development in his first 12mths playing the game was outrageous.

Welcome to Club Smut '65.
Now you are one of us. :o

IMO Edwards is not going anywhere. We may try to trade him but unless they get something half decent for him, he will be running around again with us next year. They will not delist him this year.
I agree Edwards makes heaps of mistakes but like Nahas he takes the game on. We have so many others that will go before him. He will get another year to show something and i personally think he can still turn it around. Needs to play forward of centre too IMO. Playing him off half back is just ridiculous!
Lets be honest, we have way worse than Edwards on our list.... Farmer, Hislop, Nason, Webberley, Taylor.....the list goes on....

Can't agree BT, He might take the game on...well try to until he gets pulped into the turf on every occasion. He won't turn it around unless he puts on another 100kg and learns how to play AFL.

Do you agree though we have bigger issues than your boy Titch? IMO he will be given another year. As i said before, to many before him that have to go.

Hahaha. Kills all momentum the side has by either
kicking short and dinky to a target 5 metres away when a handball would suffice
kicks 40 metre scrubbers
runs into goal with little pressure and misses check the GC game two weeks ago in the first minute
Kicks on the bounce to someone under pressure
Handballs to bloke who's hot
Handballs right or left of the teammate momentum lost teammate tackled
Runs himself into trouble by doing the foxtrot and then the waltz and gets tackled
Is usually the link of the chain that breaks when we are streaming forward in a good position.
And what irks me is the finish in many cases falls to either Edwards or Jako at a defining point who miss.
Others miss too but these guys miss too often especially at critical times when blokes like Dusty Vickery Nahas Jack or Cotch have kicked clutch goals at important times.

Put him up for trade as we did Tuck see who bites. If not then hopefully Dimma makes a call that essentially is haed for the kid but not hard if you want success somewhere down the track.
He's been in the system five years and still makes critical errors. Can't afford that.

I didn't even despise Polo this much... :lol...sorry WP.
Yes we have bigger issues BT but he is one of the contributing factors IMO, but we do have a lot to work on..
TB, well summed up in both your posts.

;D don't worry Polo was one of the Saints best on Friday night. Most would agree he played a much better game than Edwards did :rollin 85%+ effciency in disposal as well..... ;) ;D ;D

Edwards problem is not his size. it is what he does when he gets the ball, something he quite capable of doing.
I dont hear people saying some one like eddie bets is too small, yet we never seem to find a match up for these type of players. Their speed and agility contantly leaves opposition players in their wake.
So the question that needs to be asked what is the biggest difference between betts and Edwards?
Size ? :nope
ability to get the ball? :nope
what they do with the ball when they get it ? :yep
one of the greatest players to wear the yellow and black had to move around in the shower to get wet and take extra care not to get washed down the plug hole.
there always has and always will be a role in the game for smaller fleet footed players, they just have to be good enough.

Agree Al. Our smalls just lack class.

Betts, Milne etc.. are able to take the hard hits and bounce off them, regroup themselves then kick goals. Edwards gets hit and can't follow up because he is full from eating too much turf!!.

:thumbsup..which begs the question...did we get rid of the wrong player???? I had more time for Polo than I did and do for Edwards.
The role currently held by D Jackson is the role that Polo would play IMHO. So in answer to your question yeah we did and probably the same goes for Edwards too ;D
