Welcome Tyler Sonsie

[btoz_01]

Great game again tonight
Elite disposals

 

[checkside]

He looked way off it a few times tonight IMO. And I don’t mean that in a bad way, not way off it as in not capable but fumbly and tired looking.

Then he got the ball and did something special more than once. We need to keep playing this kid. Can’t wait to see him with a full pre season behind him:

Looks a little tired but what a prospect.
May be he gets managed this week and back for the ESS game.

 

[Smoking Aces]

Great second half.

 

[bringbakflemmo]

Finished the game really well after a quiet first half.
Looking good so far.

He did look tired but I hope he doesn’t have to be managed.
I know he’s only fresh but 60% of a sons is still better than a aarts who would replace him.

 

[Scoop]

Looked at home in traffic in a big game. 20 touches, 8 contested.

Serious midfield talent. Kicking is a delight.

 

[TigerFurious]

Covered 15.2km tonight, 5th most of any player on the ground.

Future star.

As you say Scoop funny what you get when you actually draft a midfielder.

 

[thegdog]

Going under the radar in young talent stakes. 20 possies as part time midfielder in first fistful of games is extremely promising

 

[dimmauchamp]

You cannot teach the decisions Sonsie makes with the ball

 

[Streak]

For those who reckon he looks tired I am not surprised. He runs, and runs, and runs, and runs, then runs some more.

Can't wait to see what he looks like with a few preseasons under his belt.

 

[St Kevin]

Looked at home in traffic in a big game. 20 touches, 8 contested.

Serious midfield talent. Kicking is a delight.

As you have been saying for ages, an actual young midfield talent stands out like dogs balls in our side.

Future star.

There goes the work rate knock.

As you say Scoop funny what you get when you actually draft a midfielder.

9 score involvements. Midfielder who hurts with the ball. More please. Prestia like. We need another one like this.

 

[wammo]

Future star.

This might sound weird, but that level of running for a first year player could be counter productive. Might be better served running a bit smarter and saving his efforts for bigger impact per contest.
Don't mean to sound negative, I thought he made a valuable contribution tonight, but I have seen juniors force themselves to get to every contest and then have little left in the tank to make a real impact when they get there.

 

[tigersnake]

There goes the work rate knock.

Prestia like.

love it, big call, hope you're right!

Huge game for a 4th game, so impressive. Good in heavy traffic, more physical each week, fantastic.

 

[Smoking Aces]

Remember he did not have a pre-season.

 

[checkside]

Remember he did not have a pre-season.

And barely played a game in 2 years before being drafted.

 

[year of the tiger]

Rising star this week - not many first year players continually get over 20 posies
