Title: Rate a Tiger's year - Shane Edwards?
Post by: one-eyed on October 22, 2017, 07:02:09 PM
Next up is Edwards.

Shedder played 20 games in his 11th season. He missed 5 games between rounds 3 to 7 due to a hip injury in our win over Collingwood. His best performances were left to when it mattered - 24 disposals, 6 marks, 4 tackles and a goal in the Qualifying Final, only topped by 25 disposals , 7 clearances and 8 inside 50s in the Grand Final. Shane also had 19 possies versus GWS in the Prelim. His other 20+ possie games came against Freo in round 8 and against the Power, Saints and Lions between rounds 14-16.

How did we all rate Edwards' year?

Played really well at the business end of the season but as usual had many underwhelming games.

His handpassing in the finals was special.

Stood up when it counted the most. Handpassing and clearance work in finals brilliant. Tackle on Cameron in GF brilliant.

Think it was Cameron but maybe wrong.

Stood up in finals. That's all that matters.

He's now a better player than Deledio. Fact!

Always been elite with his hands. So glad he delivered on the big stage, I always had belief that he could.

Easily our most underrated player. One of my favourite Tigers, onya Shedders!

Depends who you ask. Some think he's a dud, some think he's in and out of games/form and some think he borders on elite. I think that sums him up perfectly i.e. you just never know what you're going to get

After watching the game multiple times, this bloke was A grade on the day.

Those handballs were lightening quick.

Slow start, slow to get back to speed after injury, but built up to a magnificent finals series. Was glad the club remained patient with him this year. His Grand Final was superb, the callers missed a lot of his possessions because he was just so quick. The passage of play that he created when Cotchin flicked it back over his head to Jack Graham to put us in front 34-30 was greased lightning.
My main criticism of Edwards is again the goalkicking. He could really hurt sides if he ever sorted it out.

If his feet ever matched his hands he would have been one of the all time greats....
