Rate a Tiger's year - Nick Vlastuin?
« on: September 23, 2015, 02:13:27 PM »
A good time to review individual Tigers. First up is Floss.

Floss in his 3rd year of AFL played every game of the season for the first time in his career. His best returns were 21 possies against Carlton (R1) and Gold Coast (R21), and 20 disposals versus North (R6) and Sydney (R13).

Career stats:
          Games  Kicks  Hballs  Disp.  Marks  Tackles  G.B    Clear.  In50   Re50   CP  UP   1%ers
2013      18      8.7     7.6    16.3    4.8      3.1      9.3 
2014      20      8.4     6.8    15.2    4.1      3.1      4.3     1.0     2.2     1.8   4.9  9.8    1.8
2015      23      8.3     7.0    15.3    4.4      2.7      1.0     0.3     0.8     2.0   5.3  9.8    2.6

Love him to bits..My only criticism of him is that i think he was too conservative in how he played his football this year,Would love to see him take the game on more......because he can better than most

agree G. Push "see ball get ball" into the midfield and he will lift again. Becoming stale playing centre half back at his height.

I thought he was outstanding all season but unfortunately like many of his team mates saved his worst game for the final.

By stale i think he means ,he would like to do more but the position he plays is restrictive,after all the defensive side of his game needs to be at the for.
By his nature i thing floss is an aggressive beast

Agree with this

But overall think he took a huge step forward after last year's "2nd year" blues

Natural leader.

But agree with others think he could be more damaging by taking the game on some more. Would love to see him the middle as time goes on

Very good year. Could see in his first 2 years he was obviously hard but showed real class and composure this year.

Just looking at the stats Claw? Don't forget he went from playing all over the field to playing permanently back this year. Think people overrate him a bit because he is tough as nails but he was solid and is definitely a lot better defensively this year than previous years

Agree with comments that he had a good year. Agree with comment that it was a shame his worst game of the year was the elimination final. He shows immense courage.
