Matthew Parker

[Tony Braxton-Hicks]

Our premierships have been built on NQR types. He has faults but plays like a Richmond Man.

 

[blofield]

The goal kicking agile medium tall that we have lacked all year in the forward line.

 

[Go The Tiges!]

Will only het better to!

 

[St Kevin]

Not convinced, but he deserves as much latitude as Castagna and Aarts have previously gotten.

 

[TigerForce]

Loved his chat with Mozza in the end.

 

[btoz_01]

Provides a better option than George or FArts

 

[Jason King]

Terrible first quarter but he really shone after that. Good stuff.

 

[Mr Brightside]

The spark we needed.

That’s exactly why I wanted to get him in the team , that enthusiasm and effort Georgie made a career of is what Parker has in spades at the moment , he’s playing for career, has achieved nothing and wants redemption. I’d be sticking with him going forward in front of the incumbent ( never used that word before) may not be the silkiest skills but neither was George and Aarts , I’d much rather go forward with Parker, Baker and Shedda , ad Dusty and MJ next season

I think people are pretty harsh on him. A month ago was in the wilderness. I think he adds plenty. Certainly seems the type to bob up when needed.

 

[LeeToRainesToRoach]

7 score involvements. Nice assist to Prestia for his goal.

A unique type which makes him hard to play against. He's not delist material and with a summer to build connection, reckon he can be a handy player next year.

 

[Smoking Aces]

I would offer him a 1 year contract. No hesitation

Yep. Looking forward to his role and input next season.

Needs to improve his kicking through besides that bit of wild card.

It's not like he can't kick. He's just not great at it about half the time. The goal off one step from 45 shows he has the mechanics, and the ball always spins like a drop punt should off his boot.

Yes. Needs the same advice that Shane Tuck got and that was either kick it as far as possible or pick the easy option, keep it simple. Enjoyed his game again. Looks more confident to do some things but his aggression is awesome.

How’s Parker going tonight ? Haven’t seen him ? Anyone seen him . Seriously hopeless !! Not playing North this week son
Just watched him run up the ground and couldn’t hit Lynch on chest by foot from 20 metres away
Spare me !!

 

[Rancey18]

Skills are just not up to it. I think we just make hard decisions on guys like him this offseason. We need to focus on good kicking skills.

 

[Ridley]

Meh. Battler.

 

[jb03]

It is not surprising that he is a battler. He was about the 1000th ranked (at best) player in the country.

Not sure why people think a battler is suddenly going to become a good player simply because we draft them.

Can't see anything wrong with him compared to more talented players of ours turning the ball over.
