Samson Ryan

[Tigertool]

Poor bloke plays 3 games at the G, all of them in the wet. In his single dry game he kicks 3.

Competing well. Definitely isn’t scared

 

[tigersnake]

Sampson into the ruck sparked us. We couldn't buy a clearance until then. Competed well in the forward line when Lynchy was off too. I'm excited.

 

[bairdy380]

Not a whole lot of second effort though….

 

[UKTiger]

Quite a way from being an AFL footballer as yet but there is still time on his side

@Leysy Days has some explaining to do. Was taken off and Young was put down there in the dying minuts and he can barely clunk it over head.

 

[Bunnerz]

Thought he was useless to be honest.
Just no good in wet.

It's going to be a wet winter.

My thoughts.

 

[St Kevin]

A timely reminder of the gap between VFL and AFL. She's a Grand Canyon size chasm.

 

[tigersnake]

Good first half.

 

[MD Jazz]

He’s a kid playing on the wet. How many marks Naughton take or Lynch? Tough day for talls let’s give him some time.

 

[Mycotchinrules]

Geez I'm trying to cut him some slack, been a big fan .

But invisible when we needed a contest late

Liability in the wet unfortunately

My thoughts.

Agree if he cant mark it he CAN'T do anything else. Can't run, no good in the ruck, doesn't do any ground ball stuff. Dimma lost it at the selection table IMO. Jack would of been a better option up forward tonight.

 

[Redford]

He’s not the problem.

 

[Mycotchinrules]

Soldo would be giving us more

 

[Bunnerz]

He’s not the problem.

But a big part of it when it's wet aandd greasy

Jack is a pretty clever wet weather footballer , with hindsight may have been handy today

Nah. We got flogged at ground level. Pathetic actually.

 

[Tigers of Old]

Tough but Ryan won't have an AFL career if he can't impact in wet conditions.

 

[Dev Tiger]

It's a tough gig being a 206cm key forward. I am not sure many key forwards other than Paul Salmon have made it at that height.

Thought he was ok tonight in general. He drew at least 2 defenders and brought the ball to ground for Shai's goal in the 2nd quarter. Still looks like he's nit quite AFL standard fit though and did a lot of defensive "jogging", but all in all I thought he showed enough to keep his place for next week.
