Jonty Faull [merged]

[one-eyed]

He didn’t hit the scoreboard but my god I loved Jonty Faull’s work today. Couple of strong grabs, and those he didn’t take, he crumbed himself and gave off the handball.

He was excellent. Really good presenting and hands.

Really loving what Jonty is bringing to the team, love his attack on the ball & his presence.  He has that mongrel streak in him & I love that in the big forwards. 

He needs to stay in the team & have that breakout game where he clunks a few big marks & kicks a few, the Sydney Swines look like a potential victim! 
A rest is coming, but I'd like to see Jonty push through it for a bit longer. 

Don't worry about the nervy set shots Jonty, just clunk a few in the goalsquare!

Agreed with above. Kicking needs work

Yep, his kicking does need work, no question.  That wont be fixed in a week though, that's an off season job.

That's a ring matthew Lloyd or jay schulz job

Yeah his goal kicking needs work but he's hardly John Butcher - Richo missed sitters his entire career and I wouldn't want Tom Lynch kicking for my life either. They still went/go alright - and unlike them, Faull won't be required to be the focal point for most of his career, it'll be more like the few years when Richo had Ottens & Tom had Jack except he'll have two partners in crime in Sims & Armstrong.

Yze today said Jonty has had a lighter week. After playing 5-6 weeks in the AFL, we plan to do that with all the cubs.

Jonty kicked 27 goals from 11 games in the U18s Coates League last year (3 or more goals six times). He also kicked 5 goals from 3 games in the U18s Champs (3 goals vs Allies). I can't find how many behinds he kicked in those matches.

Thanks for that.
So the boy can kick. Lost his routine since moving up.. love his aggression. Appears to be a good find at this stage 👍

Has the yips IMO

Hopefully that clutch goal late will be a big confidence booster to Jonty regarding his goalkicking. He just needs to stick to his routine and proper technique when he's next having easier shots that he's been missing.

He’s a booming kick too. Effortlessly kicks 65m

[Hard Roar Tiger]

He’s gonna be a great pick up
