Thought he was better in the Ruck then Nankervis.... Keep playing him in the Ruck for the rest of the year. By next year he will be our number one ruckman. Bye Nank
He really needs to play as our number one ruck.
Up yours - wrong in your eyes not mine. You’re blocked flogThats a separate argument. The debate was about Ryans effort in that particular contest. You are wrong on that, Bigwow is spot on. And that is putting aside that even if you were right, he redeemed himself.
Should have quit while you were behind.Up yours - wrong in your eyes not mine. You’re blocked flog
Yeah, I think we have to play Nank when he's fit. It's not sensible not to. And Nank will keep fighting.Not yet. Nanks bollocking after a ruck contest is too valuable to have him relegated to number 2. Ryan makes a handy foil but doesn't have the physicality to match.
Pathetic.Up yours - wrong in your eyes not mine. You’re blocked flog
Needs more fitness
Nope. Nope. Nope. He's not ready. He's a bunch of sticks lashed into a footy jumper. If you want to smash the hopes of a young ruckman and repeat what Carlton did to Creuzer, sure. Let's smash the kid and have him be finished before his 26th birthday.He really needs to play as our number one ruck.
This. He did it again.Went to the game and thought he played great, just watched the replay, holy crap his last quarter was superb! Everyone would have been happy if he just kept competing, well he kept competing and he kept winning! I think he only lost one contest until a couple in junktime. Tremendous effort, its the sort of effort you'd expect and praise from a great seasoned ruckman much less a pup.
Won the ruck emphatically in the first 5 minutes when the game still needed to be won, also ran, made space, took marks, set up a goal with great decision makling and skill. Keeps improving, and I was gunna write keeps surprising but oddly I wasn't surprised.. I'm a bit in awe of Sampson.
One thing he does which I like a lot and haven't seen often, is sometimes when he is outmanouevred or out muscled and 'loses' the contest, he'll lunge and twist in the air and reach out a big long arm and get a few fingertips on the ball anyway to effectively halve the contest.
That will come with physical maturity.As a ruck. Don’t think he’s a forward. Overhead marking and intensity for every contest is still my concern.
Disagree , he needs games/ minutes in the big time .Nope. Nope. Nope. He's not ready. He's a bunch of sticks lashed into a footy jumper. If you want to smash the hopes of a young ruckman and repeat what Carlton did to Creuzer, sure. Let's smash the kid and have him be finished before his 26th birthday.
No problem with playing him, but managing his minutes. It was in direct response to a suggestion he should be playing 1st ruck.Disagree , he needs games/ minutes in the big time .
Tiggs will know when to rest him but atm he is going well do why not play him?.
8 years i think.Most guys his size don’t have the footy IQ he has. How long is he signed for?
I hope you didnt push your young one out of the way to get it!I got a hi-5 from him after the game too.
