Brandon Ellis

Played well, is getting better every week. His running to support a feature.
 
Has his confidence back. Playing within himself, not panicking or trying too much. His job is to feed it off to the more skilled, better decision-makers and it's working well atm. He's the sort of player that if the team game plan breaks down a little he suffers more than most. At the moment our game plan is working beautifully.
 
Good game! Plays like that he keeps his spot! One of few players guilty of coughing it up to often! When they dont, that only leaves the umps or a point that gives the ball back to our opponents!
 
Playing good footy atm, if Graham and Conca get back before Finals and we don’t ad to the injury list it will be interesting to see if Ellis B keeps his spot. Certainly doing his job and keeping pressure on everyone to keep the form up
 
He is very safe overhead, took some good grabs on Friday night.

BEllis just needs to keep playing to his capabilities. He is a straight line player who has no side step so he needs to dish off when confronted with an opposition player. He is generally doing that now and I am liking the way he is playing.
 
Seriously he needs to be traded. Got out marked a million times tonight.
And when not getting out marked he is giving away cheap free kicks.

Let's speak to Silivagni, he loves bargains 2 Ellis's for pick 50

At least he’s the best Ellis at the club. He can hang his hat on that.

That's like saying Griffens was the best Griffens we have had. I rather Stuart Griffens
 
Plays scared. First thought is sideways, backwards. Doesn’t want the ball. Got outmarked by kids.

Have been a big defender but that was a droppable effort. Problem is betweeen the ears.

Yeah,. I think thats becuase we've been trying to turn him into a defensive backmen. Doesnt really suit him. Should be on the wing where he can use his cardio.
 
His not a defender, he can't kick a goal to save himself. The best position for him is back in two's and straight swap with Aaron hall

Why would we need Aaron Hall ??

Would rather trade for a list need - Will Brodie makes more sense

Yes, the wings his best position.
 
Still too many up and unders into forward 50 and those set shots man.

That *smile* costs you games as we saw last week.

In Finals you do not want to be pissing away shots at goal like that.
