His kicking before September is generally good..............:shh :shh


Short steps will return this weekend via the VFL.


Where he belongs and should stay. :shh
What don’t you like about Short?



The same things you don't like about Ellis & Houli. :shh

His kicking is massively overrated too. shh :shh
I don’t like Bellis because he is scared 99% of the time and I don’t like Houli because he plays back and cannot defend, and both are overrated IMO.

And Short’s kicking is elite. By far the best kick in our side at the very minimum.

Does anyone else on this forum think his kicking is overrated?

So basically you don't like Short for the same reason as BEllis..... :shh :shh :shh

You basing that on the 2 games he’s ever played in September? Was very good against hawthorn and garbage against the pies like everyone else. If we wrote off every player after 1 poor final then we would have been struggling for players after 2013-15.

Wasn't good against the Hawks at all, struggled with the intensity and panicked in a BEllis tribute....:shh

The longer a bloke is out, the better he gets....:shh :shh

Yeah only had 500m+ gained going at 76% efficiency. Oh but he did have a solitary clanger....

The more  :shh emojis someone uses the less confident they are in what they are saying.

That's 10 hacked kicks up the line instead of releasing the outlet.... :shh

Metres gained, what a wank of a stat. Griffiths used to average 800 metres gained per game and that was from one kick..... :shh :shh

I agree metres gained can be a wildly misleading stat, but metres gained couple with a high disposal efficiency and effective disposals is gold.

It’s a territory game and Richmond more than anyone have had success over the past couple of seasons with a get it forward at every chance game plan.

Not even saying you are necessarily wrong about short but you can’t say he’s a great kick in the regular season and crap come finals based off 2 finals, 1 where he was very good and the other where the whole team was garbage.
