They all need a bit of work, spit and polish done on them and Collingwood has the perfect off field set up to do this development stuff really well.magpieazza wrote:I'm not a fan YET because his kicking and marking and tackling and defensive running are not up to scratch, so its waiting with interest for me.
You need to be a complete player.
I'm highly optimistic, confident and convinced that they have got themselves a real beauty here and the proof will be in about 2 years time.
His gait reminds me of Mick McGuanePies Passion wrote:Has a bit of Sean Rusling about him. Let's hope he can stay on the park!
Interview not very well?gurugeoff wrote:Something just doesn't add up. His highlight reel is on our website.
As AFL Media's draft expert Callum Twomey put it, the 18-year-old "has a highlights package like no other. Marsh might be the most unpredictable player in the draft."
I cannot fathom how he was not picked earlier. Someone of that size and pace. Even we were willing to let him go elsewhere when we used picked sixty whatever on someone else.
I cannot see how he is unpredictable. I see him as being predictably exciting,
As Albert Parker said, drifted in and out of games. Too inconsistent. Looks a million bucks one minute and not worth a dime the next. And his draft combine, where he tested off the charts, didn't amount to a damn thing in the eyes of recruiters.gurugeoff wrote:Something just doesn't add up. His highlight reel is on our website.

Watching the highlights, there's a bit of Jared Brennan about him.swoop42 wrote:http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/news/2013-11-26/jonathon-marsh-recruiters-request
It might take a couple of years to iron out all the flaws that we don't get to see here but get this kid right and he'll be the biggest draft steal since clubs got a whole lot more professional when it comes to recruiting.
THE BEAST man a cometh.
That is the One the Club put out on him TodayAlbert Parker wrote:http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/video/2013-11-26/jonathon-marsh-highlights
Think this clip may be a bit different. Could be anything really. Super athletic and can kick. Won't be able to pull off as many don't-argues against men, but will be able to burn them off still.
I am not as hard on Marsh as you. That Skill and Athleticism you hardly see and I back our Development to get the best out of him.MagpieBat wrote:As Albert Parker said, drifted in and out of games.

Not all that excited about him, to be honest. Him and Langdon are bonus players in my view. I'll contain my unrealistic excitement to Scharenberg and Freeman, as well as a kid called Broomhead, who was taken with a 1st round pick and is yet to debut...
