Maynard....
Second thread I have started on this young lad. Best game I have seen him play last night. Others agree?

A few mates say the same Melliot. But personaly i dont see it, I think he is far more reliable then say a Sinclair or Williams. I dont know, but from what i have seen he strikes me as a lock in pick moving forward (for this year anway) maybe Ramsay will contest him Berg is an unkown due to injury. I would say his spot is his to lose. loved his strong marking and play making last night.melliot wrote:I think he has some promise. But concerned about his smarts with the ball. I have very little faith when he gets it and pretty much awaiting to see the turn over when he disposes of the ball..
I guess time will tell.

I agree. Rated him very highly last night. Williams hasn't been back long and doesn't seem to be taking the game on. Maynard has a crack and is happy to do the tough stuff too. Last night Maynard on top. Close between the two though.derkd wrote:^

Re: Maynard....
He has huge upside. Think last night was the only time he hasn't had a "brain fade" with disposal. He is an elite thumping kick for distance, loves a stoush and trust in 40 games he'll be twice as good. Oh yes it was his best game.derkd wrote:Second thread I have started on this young lad.

Re: Maynard....
You need to watch the game again. Upside is great as he has elite penetration on his kick but he has to reduce the turnovers. Its too hard to get it back.inxs88 wrote:[^

When assessing Sinlair as a player, forget his initial seasons as a forward. His disposcal as a back has been good.derkd wrote:melliot wrote:I think he has some promise.

I count the times they hit the targets when they should. Not the times the kick looks good.
Seedsman is the prime example. Looks a good kick. But turns it over.
Maynard turns it over. By hand and foot. It seems to me to be a decision making issue rather than a skill or ability issue. At 19 he does have time on his side. But I continue to be reserved on the kid at this stage.
Did gave a solid game against Freo. But other games have shown some issues for him to correct.
