Sydney Stack [merged]

[The Machine]

Created a few goals due to footy smarts. Not many touches but played a role in his first game back. Nice to see Jack constantly provide advice to Stack throughout the game. Should play in the firsts for the rest of the year.

Correct. He had a role to play and did it very well

[camboon]

Played a defensive role and will be better for the run. Needed the game to get a feel of the tempo

I think he’s a keeper. I see him getting better each week with more time in the seniors.

[skiddymcghee]

He needs a good run at it. Definantly a keeper, given he is only ~22.
He has the skills, just needs to make sure he has the off-field support system around him!

Starting from a low base so will be easy to improve on 5 possessions.

Dimma said today he was happy with is Syd's game last week. Didn't have the touches he would've liked but "played a great game" with his impact (defensive pressure & speed).

However, Dimma also made the point that with good players coming back in, Stack may find himself out of the side but he's done all he can to put his hand up to stay in the side. Now up to Dimma to decide. Same goes for Maurice jnr.

For me I’d play stack or maurice over castagna any day

I know people think Maurice is the bees knees but i just don,t see it with him so far.

Not going to get right into it but parts of his game are of real concern to me.

I don’t think anyone thinks he’s a world beater. I think people are just excited from what they’ve seen from what, a 3 gamer ? I would t expect anyone to see a long term future from him
Right now, but the signs are positive IMO.

I’d like you to, agree he’s not perfect but that’s the best game I’ve seen from a small forward of ours since 2020 albeit vs second rate opposition

I’ve been trying to find this post for the last 2 weeks. I think Claw doesn’t like how he tries to bounce the ball up like a basketball before kicking the ball to the top of the goal square so Lynch can take another mark

Really disappointed that Stacky didn’t smash it in the VFL game to at least to force Castagna out of the team so he could play dreamtime.
I’m a huge fan of his and I’m hoping he can repay the club by becoming the player we expect he is capable of being.
Not sure why he’s not firing in the vfl as he’s clearly above the level.

Feel like he’s been firing most weeks. Seems like the only way Castagna will come out is if we get through a round with no injuries, he plays another stinker and stack plays a blinder. Don’t think all 3 have happened at the same time yet.
