His link up work getting better too.

He makes defenders make decisions: runs at them with the pill, if they come at him he finds the overlap handball, if they hesitate he runs rings around them. He's Ryan Giggs in Jake King's body.

 

[bringbakflemmo]

Is certainly improving his attacking game and creates space when he gets the ball through his pace and agility.

 

[TigerMasochist]

Always gunna have a Georgie moment or two in games, but that's half his value. Just so unpredictable, takes everything on n throws defences off system.

George looking in ominous form at business time.

laughed my head off out loud when he played on, stuffed it, and kicked the very difficult snap

is currently our only blue chip small forward.

I’m Georgie’s biggest fan, ( I even paid $6 bucks his badge yesterday)
But he needs to finish better. How many times he is in a position to goal and they end up as behinds.

 

[MD Jazz]

He was good again.

 

[Mr Brightside]

Thought Georgie was important again, in very good form, however *smile* he makes way too many basic skill errors

Talking to an Italian friend yesterday. Had my Georgie badge on. She said Castagna means walnut in Italian. Jase Walnut. You learn something new everyday.

I think it means chestnut, Jason Chestnut has quite a ring to it.

For a young bloke off a limited preseason, he's quietly had a pretty good year. Been the most consistent of the smalls.

Did anyone have a full preseason?

 

[TOT70]

It means Chestnut.

I've been calling him "chestnut" for years as a nickname. (It isnt Walnut)

 

[Ghost of Punt Road]

It means Chestnut.

"Kick it 'Nuts!"
When he stuff the pass..."aaaahhh NUTS!"

He does but gee he's definitely picked up his game. Thought he was struggling big time for a few weeks 4 or 5 weeks back but last 3 or 4 has been much better. I hope he can maintain the consistency.

I reckon George is the most unique beast and I can totally understand his biggest fans and biggest critics, I think it comes down to if your half full glass of Georgie or a half empty glass of George. I garuntee if somebody watches Saturday’s game with an open mind you’ll find at least half a dozen poor errors from George, they will also find a stack of bloody good things he did, his my Jekyll and Hyde , love him but find his basic skill errors incredibly frustrating. It ain’t going to happen as the MC value his defensive pressure so highly and it’s proven how important it is, however I’d prefer to have Caddy in the forward 50 if it came to the crunch,. George will be there for a while yet I’d say.

Chestnut is old and outdated and cliche

Im identifying with Walnut

 

[TigerMasochist]

Chestnut, Walnut, Peanut, whatever. I go Nuts when he farks things up n go Nuts when pullin them out of his date. Lucky for me I don't have an allergy or I'd cark it from a heart attack overdosing on Georgie Nuts.

 

[Mr Brightside]

Really liked Georgie’s game, was very important in the win.
