Players best and worst traits
« on: December 14, 2013, 11:15:30 AM »
I thought with nothing much going on in the off-season we could have a chat about players strengths and weaknesses. I thought we could start with these guys -

Cotchin
Biggest Strength - Contested ball
Biggest Weakness - Kicking disposal

Riewoldt
Biggest Strength - Creativity
Biggest Weakness - Body Language

Martin
Biggest Strength - Switching play
Biggest Weakness - Endurance

Deledio
Biggest Strength - Run & Carry
Biggest Weakness - Inability to shake a tag

Rance
Biggest Strength - One on one defensive speed
Biggest Weakness - Brain fades

So either add additional players or disagree with my judgements and do your own.   :thumbsup

Just my take  ;D

Steve Morris

Biggest Strength:
his attack on the footy & courage

Biggest Weakness: going to ground far too often

What about Nicky V Bojo?
Attacks the ball like a viper on a field mouse but still developing an engine?
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.
