Brandon Ellis to Gold Coast / Richmond receive pick 39 as compo [merged]

[WilliamPowell]

Standing three feet away twidding ones thumps getting ready to run forwards is an act of squibyness

Ellis is prone to this too. Pettard at times. Bacha.

Petterd? Your statement loses credibility when you include Petterd.

Whack him for poor disposal but I don't think you can ever whack him for pulling out of contests and not putting his body on the line

Yep have given him plenty about his up and unders but I have never seen him shirk a contest

[Judge Roughneck]

Unwilling to get to the contest. Anti Cochin

Rather than pulling out

A form ofnsquib imo

[Willy]

Pettard ain't no squib. Everyone can't jump on the ball at once.

Your points have merit but then you ruin it by saying pettard is a squib. Probably wont find a harsher critic of pettard - but a squib he aint and if even half the side played with his heart, we'd be in a much better place.

[Yeahright]

Loves to get up and third man spoil when playing back, one of his best attributes really

Interesting that despite Ellis being our top possession getter (27 disposals), he said afterwards that he thought he had a quiet game.

Ellis has had more than 25 possies in 10 of his past 12 games (the other two were both 23 disposals).

[Francois Jackson]

another cracking game by Ellis.

Never stopped running all day

[Yeahright]

Would help if he could hit a target that isn't a dinky kick, which he misses from time to time

they all cant be perfect mate. See Cotchin.

Whats his disposal efficiency like? Would think its pretty good, in & fact id say his in the top half for sure.

Has had a great year. Top 3-4 B&F only behind Dusty, Cotch and Rance

[Yeahright]

I don't care if they have perfect little kicks as you said no ones perfect, but he sprays them far too much or simply doesn't kick to advantage. Can cut him some slack if he had even the slightest inside style of play but he doesn't BUT I must admit the past 2-3 weeks he's been better. Just think the rest of the year was too pee poor.

"Big happy 21st birthday to @brandonjellis after 34 touches and a goal yesterday he's earned it!"

One of the guys who has really lifted in the second half of the year.
Just turned 21 so he has a lot of upside. Needs to develop his inside game and tackling.

He's already gone past Conca as he gets more of it and is definitely more penetrating with his kicks and does hit the scoreboard too.
But he's again just another product of the limpwristed soft pansy uncontested production machine that is the RFC.

Went at 84% yesterday, not bad for a 30+ game. He's the least of our problems
