This is why we can’t have decent conversation about him. Any thought out discussion gets brought down when you have people suggesting trading him for a pack of gum and then all criticism gets lumped into the same category.

and the other side saying they’d only accept the farm for him.
Don’t need 12 seconds, … you’re out of your mind.

Zacca won’t be traded he won’t go anywhere.
Did I say he would be?
No, you didn’t. I remember him saying once he would be a one club player.
Zaha has limitations in some areas but like Stants he is very fit and busts a gut for us. Not everyone is born to run through blokes or the same way as the footy. Best example is Craig Bradley and he was a star and super important to his side.
We need blokes that are still pushing and providing options late in the last when everyone else is knackered.
Calling him a squib or soft is in my view ridiculous. There’s nothing soft about training thru summer (when others are prancing around Seminyak) and rocking up super ready to go and challenging others to do the same.

Zaharakis trade value is fairly decent. Possibly a early 2nd rounder
What’s the point of discussing that? He won’t be traded.

The bust a gut reference I don’t agree with. When the opposition have the ball, very very rarely will you see him running back with any sort of speed.
He is very much a front runner. Which works well when the team is on top and dominating, but when we are struggling it doesn’t help at all

No worries Robbo, you and I see a lot of things differently. What do you think about Zaha Joe?
Zaha joe?
Nah, Barnz, I’m interested in his thoughts.
I think you can guess.
No idea why this clown keeps calling me Joe tho.
Give us something mate, don’t make us guess.
I have more faith in Heppells delivery going inside 50
We seriously need to invest in a quality skills coach

Severely underwhelming. Technically he’s our best tackler and you hardly see him tackle unless he’s the 2nd or 3rd player in. Very happy to burst away from someone when he has the ball. Very rarely chases someone down when he’s one of best runners. Loves the useless corral as opposed to tackling when once again he’s our best tackler in terms of technique. Blazes away going forward with lazy deep kicks instead of short pin point passes we know he’s capable.
Imo he has all the tools to be all Australian regularly but he barely comes close.

I disagree with you Barnz. Good summary though. I’d pegged you as just a smart ■■■■ but perhaps you do know footy and have an opinion.
Zaharakis strikes me as a player who is very content to have a decent AFL career, but who lacks a fierce drive to achieve success beyond that.
