Hey UK - I'm gonna adopt your tag/byline/whatever i.e. the "have to be positive" and say
Well there’s plenty to work withAm sure who took the time to collate that must be very proud.
If that is a game that had the second most score involvements then that stat is clearly the most pointless stat in the game.
perhaps a fairer analysis is here:
That was then, this is now. The game has gone past him and his skill, level and ability has gone backwards.
Don't listen to the Koklslappers if Griffens didn't retire and we didn't have Bulter Rioli & George we would still be waiting to win a flag.
I'm not advocating a place for George in the team.
George's main assests have always been his courage, endurance, breakaway pace, agility and run-down tackling pressure. That was his role, to use all those attributes to benefit the team. He has reasonably clean hands and he has a good leap due to his leg strength but unfortunately often spills the mark. He has kicked some good snap goals in general play where he doesn't have to think too much about it beforehand but clearly his set-shot kicking for goal is appalling for an AFL player. With teams as close as they are this year we just cannot carry a player who has lost so much confidence. With no repeatable goal-kicking routine he keeps kicking points and therefore gives the ball back to the opposition. In our premiership years we had a lot of other players to kick goals so his lack of goal-scoring could be covered by others, but not now. We need a pressure forward who has all of George's attributes but who can also kick easy set-shot goals. Eg. players like Marlion Pickett, Kam McIntosh but if they play on the wings we need to find others.
Well plenty of people take the time to critique other players performances. I don’t see any difference taking the time to create a video demonstrating a players flaws.
