To me it seemed as though only Martin and Prestia wanted to work hard in midfield tonight but because there was no protection any of their plays were rushed and so were not to advantage

Anyone that reckons this bloke was ordinary tonight has his or her hand on it.
He's a footballer with poor kicking skills.
That's why he's ordinary.
No doubt in front of Higgins, Ellis, Menadue & Butler on tonight's performance but alas he's not an A grader.

His field kicking is fine. His finishing/ goal kicking is his weakness.

Yep. Under pressure for a lot of his field kicks because no one creates space for him.

It thought he was very good tonight.

Good but could have been great tonight, should have kicked 2 of his four shots but he is not a good finisher.

He’d be leading the way for us in most statistics this year, so I dare say you’re incorrect when saying he’s an ordinary footballer.

Actually he’s a crap kick period. Would be genuine star if he could kick. Off night tonight but been good this year.

Very good player.

He's never been a good kick for goal unfortunately, which kills momentum in a game like tonight.

Problem is, he gets so used to throwing it on his boot that he doesn't take a second when he has it. I'm confident it will come with a bit more footy and players around him. I feel like we decide who a player is and don't appreciate these are still young guys with heaps of capability for learning. He's the least of our worries, but I do wish he'd show a bit more poise.

Leads the way for us in possessions, score involvements, tackles, contested possessions (plus a few more I dare say). Very least if our worries. We’d be much worse off without our Meatball.
