Wright and Minchington

Post: # 1666705Post mad saint guy »

What a huge job these two guys have against the Giants. These two players are going to have a huge part to play if we are to be competitive against GWS. Neither have shown any ability to win a lot of the footy at AFL level but both are excellent pressure players and regularly bob up for goals. They have to bring aggression, intensity and they need to take their opportunities. If these two guys have good games I think we win. But if they less than 15 disposals, less than 3 goals and less than 8 tackles between them I don't think we have any chance. They're the 21st and 22nd players selected this week but they're so important. Haynes out is a huge advantage. But Shaw, Williams and Wilson are seriously good players and our pressure forwards need to perform. A big game from either player would be huge for their chances of forging an AFL career for the next 6+ years and would help us make the finals in 2017.

I'll bump this thread for you Mad Saint Guy so you don't have to and it doesn't look like your showing off.
Spot on comments.

A little bump here...

Anyone noticing a trend developing here.

Wright and Minchington tend to play better when they're both in the team together at the same time.

It's just a hard position to play consistently well

Unlike the midfield you get very few chances
