Welcome to Tigerland Jacob Bauer
- Thread starter Tony Braxton-Hicks
- Start date
I am happy with either end. This bloke is a footballer. Penetrating kick. Has courage in a marking contest. At the moment, we need a forward. Either way he is definitely in our best 22 given the upcoming retirements and delistings in 25. Has footy smarts. This guy would be 100% better than Short on a HBF.
Agree. Leave Balta back. Bauer forward. Will be dangerous next to Kosi and Ryan
Looking like we may be able to add Fawcett to that list too.
2025 should be a less crummy season.
It won't make sense. Very underwhelming while showing some good signs. Sorry best way i can describe his game.
For his height he takes a good grab and looks dangerous in the air.
I hope they work hard on his size strength and pace in the off season. As a third tall/medium id like to see him hunting players when the ball hits the ground. Would also like to see him get some cheapie disposals to stay involved. So many things he can work on and that spells upside.
The temptation would be to develop him back as say Nathan Broads replacement or even Grimes..

Couldn't help but chortle when the peanut from the Hun match report had the Bauer in our best players. Both he n Raaalphy managed to kick a couple of goals but they barely got a hand on it all game.
The *smile* that is Brian Taylor called him Bayer, the other *smile* commentating (was it Jab or the head ducking *smile* ?) called Ralphsmith, Naismith
In fairness to Watson he was probably on drugs at the time so he wouldnt know what he saying.
And in fairness to BT, he probably wasnt on drugs, but who could tell.
Jack Gunston style forward imo, 3rd forward not a kpp.
Our forward line right now is a terrible place for an undersized key forward to be playing. If he had 2 decent key forwards around him and got decent delivery he could be quite dangerous
The thing I like is that if he gets 7-8 touches he is likely to kick 3-4. Perfect in a high functioning forward line.

Recovering from watching his team capitulate the night before.Needs to show that his body can stand up to AFL.
First step is play the last 2 games out with no injuries. Has potential as a third tall but he will have to be a lot fitter to play the Gunston role. So far his body has not been able to stand up to it.
Heres hoping
I was sitting close to our bench yesterday and at one stage we had Bauer, Trezise, Dow and Campbell there as well as the sub Smith. They were all very lean, good muscle definition but small and very lean in the body.
The st kilda players looked much “chunkier” if that is the right word.
