Re: Par for Daniel Archer
the hun stats give him 8 touches, 4 marks, 1 scoring shot - not sure about hitouts, but probably fewer than that as he wasn't in the ruck that much.bergholt wrote:I reckon acceptable is:
8 touches, 4 marks, 12 hitouts, 1 scoring shot
i thought it was a decent game, certainly didn't look completely out of place, but neither did he really make much of a mark.

Re: Par for Daniel Archer
Maybe we should adopt a Collingwood type forward setup, and play Roo, Kosi and the arrow chucker as big targets with Milney and Schniederman cleaning up when it hits the ground.bergholt wrote:the hun stats give him 8 touches, 4 marks, 1 scoring shot - not sure about hitouts, but probably fewer than that as he wasn't in the ruck that much.bergholt wrote:I reckon acceptable is:

Also may need to start resting BJ,Monty and Dal on the half forward line instead of resting on the bench

I remember when that plan really worked, and I loved that forward line:saintbob wrote:Maybe we should adopt a Collingwood type forward setup, and play Roo, Kosi and the arrow chucker as big targets with Milney and Schniederman cleaning up when it hits the ground.

HF: Hamill, Riewoldt, Koschitzke
F: Milne, Gehrig, Guerra
Milne and Guerra were great crumbers and that HF line stretched every team and smashed most.
UP THE SAINTERS!

If he had have converted in the last quarter it would have been a very good debut, instead it was only solid. He also should have got a free when he was tackled to the ground without the ball about 30m out from goal earlier in the game. He did more than Stanley last year, anyway. Looked like he was still adjusting to the pace of the game but he presents well, can take a good grab and applies pressure. Worth persevering with

Showed a bit IMO, and has a lot to work with... Obviosuly is raw and was overawed a bit, but was not our worst by a long way, and he can improve quickly with opportunity...
Reminds me a bit of Chris Dawes from the Pies, who early on looked unco and sub par, but grew into his body and talents...
Worth persisting with, hope he plays next week...

shouldve had at least 3 shots at goal... 1 stolen 1 ignored
but hey i was happy watching him... did his job and obviously him being down forward meant something because milne had 3 goals 7 behinds...
if nothing else he straightens our structure up with kosi out... hoping they put kosi in vfl next week and leave archer in forward line...
guy looks like he can be some one special in the not to distant future

Seem to recall a set shot goal from 50 in the NAB Cup.desertsaint wrote:thank god he did - another dud kick in the team.borderbarry wrote:When Roo kicked the last goal, he stole the free kick from Archer, who had made the tackle.
I haven't seen enough of him to call him a dud kick. Could be nerves. Time will tell.
