Next up is Titch.
Shane played 20 games in his seventh season of AFL to take his career tally to 129. He played the first 18 matches straight before injury and suspension meant in the last month he only played against GWS and then in the Elimination Final a fortnight later where he only had 11 disposals (his lowest return for the season). Edwards had 20+ possessions on eight occasions in 2013 including a career high and his first 30 possession game against the Cats in round 6.

How did we all rate Titch's year?
-
l would rate him with my 12 gauge. how this guy survived all these years stuns me. anyone will have a good day once a year, When all the other players are worn out.
-
Monk your wrong dont you to games to see those elusive quick hands that we saw round 15, 2007. Amazing
Small forward role should be a role played by Paul P and Breust.
Edwards is a teachers pet because there is no other way he is getting a game
His year 1/10
-
Would probable give Shane a 3 or 4, I honestly thought that if he were to have a break out year this would of been it. As TM has said, one good year is all Shane has had.
While I am very disappointed and I would of liked to see Shane improve as I backed him in the entire year without bagging him at all his lack of improvement really reinforces what I have been saying for years about him.
I hate to say I told you so but..... :whistle
We should of traded Shane when he had that decent year, instead we re-signed him...people are complaining about picking up Hampson, in all honesty you should be complaining about the club continuing to carry Edwards for so many years with very little in return.
Anyway, he is still in he team for next year so lets hope he can actually improve..

How could l forget it was against hawthorn & we got smashed after halftime. Edwards & Bowden passing the ball for cheap possessions ;D

You think he may take some advise from Jackson or maybe he could get bumped off in Rio :biglaugh

I totally understand people's thoughts on Shane and I tend to agree on most things but I cannot help and think the DH didn't do him many favours this year. That small forward roll that he played so well in '12 is a really difficult possition to play but if you are getting chopped and changed all the time it's even harder. Swapping on ball, playing on the wing and then moving forward is hard for even the elite player in the AFL.
IMO you either sit him in the forward pocket and tell him to kick you a couple a game and set up a couple, and reside to the fact he isn't going to get 20 touches or you play him as that hybrid type that DH did this year and get what we got. Edwards is a pretty talented player but he is no Trent Cotchin, play him where he will cause the most damage and IMO it's close to goal under Jacks feet. And that probably means Jack plays closer to goal too.
Dimma, IMO try's to be a little cute for my liking, play players where they hurt the opposition the most. Jack doesn't hurt anyone on the wings or even across half forward.

Good theory Tone. Agree 100%
-
I also agree tone.
F50 player for me. Has some pace and can really leap for marks. Shouldn't be in the midfield.

U blokes are kidding yourselves.
Ever thought maybe he is a c grader at best and all currency has gone, much like his mate Nahas.
Give me Paul P or Bruest, Elliot anyway of the week.

LMAO you have been blowing smoke up his arse for at least half of the year
-
RFC rate him as our best small forward and wasn't he rated a the most under rated player in the AFL at the beginning of the year but what would they know ! Dam armatures!
-
For a bloke who plays mainly as a forward his return of 11.12 is well not good enough.
His defensive pressure inside F50 is very good but we don't utilise it enough
I tend to agree with big tone, should be left as a permanent small forward
Started the year well but tapered off badly, was nowhere to be found in our only final which is what we all remember
-
Shane Edwards is a great example of what happens to player when the coaching staff gets it wrong.
Looked like a fish out of water in half 2 of the year and his confidence had totally deserted him by the first final.
-
Shane has great skill,unfortunately he appears to not concentrate for a whole game

How does his pressure acts and tacking stack up with others.
Out of curiosity what was the excuse before this year? Broke up with his girlfriend, misses his family up north or his brother Tambling
It seems every year it's this persons that persons fault, now it's the coaches fault.
I blame Dimma for one thing, that's holding onto this hack for as long as he have. He had currency in a good draft. Good clubs offload (Dawes:Wellingham).
11 goals. Dear me. Nahas would've got more than that.

For about 4 games I said he was going along nicely, he was, then he dropped it. 4 games is not half the season. BTW....for 5 years I have called it how it is... CS... :wallywink

One of those strange players you get from time to time that's in that twilight zone of being just one step below gun and just one step above dud. Ideal trade bait for mine but alas, in typical RFC fashion, we'll hang on to him until he's worth nothing.
So what to do with Calamity Shane? To me he's the most blatantly obvious "super-sub" candidate on the list and should be utilised in the role as much as possible - as the freshest player on the ground those party tricks might actually start to pay off more than once in every half-dozen matches and the nearly man just might finally become the gamebreaker his fanboy apologists would have everyone believe he was always going to be. (yep just wait until he hits that second decade of his AFL career - then you'll all see!)
Of course this would require the kind of out-of-the-box lateral thinking (though it really isn't) that the player's bestest pal, ol' Dimmer Switch seems to be averse to, so I'm not holding my breath.

Agree with the first two paragraphs they make a lot of sense.
Unfortunately the third is just a cheap shot at the coach who has got our club out of the pooheap of mediocrity

Hold off on the Dimma statue just for now, only thing I can remember is we lost our last game against a poo side after being 30 points up. He has only done what any half decent coach should have been able to do in four years with our club. Ken Hinkley has done what Dimma has taken four seasons to do..
And their list doesn't have Cotchin, Lids, Martin and Jack.
It's not a cheap shot, it's reality.

Adelaide have some decent players & were in front of us before they lost key players to other clubs & injury. People are forgetting we had a lot of injuries at the business end of the season. Some of them players have had operations already. Its unfortunate but that's footy & we lack 2nd tier players which we will build on in the next 2 years with our divorce from Coburg.
Dimma can only do so much in a year when rebuilding a club. If they go overboard in 1 hit. It can send a club crashing which we all know well. Just look what Wallace did to the club & he still believes that he knows what his talking about TAC & club list management. He could not hold his penis in his hand correctly that tosser ;D
