Matt Dea [merged]

[Rampstar]

yeah agree one of the few who went ok and deserves his place in the side.

[The Machine]

Great game again last night

[peggles]

I agree machine

dea has really upped his game.  In the past, he could always get good numbers down in VFL but when promoted to seniors, the game seems to get too quick for him and he either can't get the ball or just panics when he gets his hands on it.

but that has changed....he's got great confidence in his game and he is reading the game, getting involved and importantly thinking through each situation and disposing of the ball with poise and skill..

well done matty....keep it up.

[WilliamPowell]

One of the very few highlights last evening

[Gigantor]

I have watched Matty in the twos this year and he seems to have added poise to his game...well done Matty

[Jackstar is back!!!]

I bagged him big time for years and I like the fact I ate humble pie last night
Has a dip and tries his best
Improved heaps

[Phil Mrakov]

So he had an ok game. Probably follow it up now with 3-4 bad ones

[Gigantor]

Yeah I had started to think he wouldn't make it too...happy to be proven wrong

[sugark]

The only player in the second half to actually attack a contest instead of conceding and jogging half pace (ala cotchin) and the result was a goal.  It's aroma zing what can happen if you commit yourself to every contest. About time a few other more highly paid squibs gave it a try

[Gigantor]

Mrakov we have to hang our hat on something in these barren ,desolate times for us RFC supporters,so Matty it is this week

[Mr Magic]

Definitely.
It's positives like this that we need to focus on for the rest of a lost season.

[Hellenic Tiger]

Thught he was fantastic last night. There are more senior players who could just look at this kid and see the endeavour he brings to the table and maybe replicate that themselves.

Was stiff to have two holding the balls against him.

What will pee me off is when Newman is fit he replaces Dea in the side.

It's on thing to feel a disconnect that would just alienate even more supporters who see Dea and other kids as positives and the sole reason(s) they go to games.

[tigs2011]

Has the potential to be a bloody good player. Will be dropped for Newy so don't get your hopes up guys. 

[Hellenic Tiger]

Just stay home and tell everyone that's disconnected what they are. Troll.

Yeah I also bagged him for years  but he has really improved and last night I thought he was terrific. Well done to the young bloke. Hopefully he has a long career infront of him at the Tigers.
