Just had another look at his debut ,it was better then I first thought,his composure on the big stage was first class I thought

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

I hoping this draft will be our best effort for a long time.
I think we have picked up some pretty good players.

Can't disagree with that.

Riewoldt - already showing fantastic signs at Coburg in just 3 games.
Edwards - already forced his way into the side on form alone
Connors - BOG last week at Coburg
Peterson - Could be anything
Collins - Been solid for a speculative pick

I dont think speculative pick is the right words,this kid is a class act, its just simply the draft was that deep that kids of his an Carl's ability were still avaliable late.
I have likened him to Hazelby for his running style(gate) an wouldnt not be shocked at all to see him reach the same level,Connors said the other night that Collins had put on 8 or 9 kilo's since he arrived at Punt Road

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

Was Edwards injured for the last quarter?

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

OOOOOOOOOOO Class

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

He's making stuff happen at the moment. Still makes the odd mistake here and there, but those mistakes are well and truly outnumbered by the classy, intelligent things he does.

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

Good signs from the young fella so far. Looks composed when he gets the ball, seems to have good skills and as others have said shows some real class.

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

Did he get injured?

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

Not according to the match reports. I dunno :don't know

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

Edwards looks to me like a Robert Harvey type.

Has a superior stamina which he is willing to use to run his opponents ragged over the course of the game.

His disposal is right up there. Wow im excited !!!

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

Look a bit more settled. Couple of really subtle things he did today impressed me. Fakes one way goes the other way were the space is, not setting the world on fire by any stretch but looks to have the tools. Still not %100 sold on his kicking but he deserves more games at this stage. Give him another two or three then drop him back and play Casserley.

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

he spent to much time on the pine for mine - would like to see more of him than an occasional cameo when hes aloud onto the field.

This players future excites me.

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

I really don't have a problem with his kicking, more the decision making from time to time. He's kicked the ball well enough, just to a contest instead of to an open man. I think these things will get better.

Didn't he set up the play where Richo handballed to Tambling for tamblings goal? Or am I thinking of a different passage of play?

Re: Shane Edwards is the real deal!!

This kid will be a beauty. He has the capacity to run all over the ground when he is on, I like the way he controls the ball when looking to move the ball on, looks as if he has all the time on the world, and most important the kid has ball skills.
