I groaned when second game Parker was outmarking McGrath in the backline. Too tall they reckon.
There was no match up for him, even tho there was a second gamer named Parker 190cm who looked a little too tall for Guelfi and McGrath. Iām no genius but Ridley 192 cm, who is agile and actually has good skills probably wouldāve been a good matchup
Kid is all class, such composure. Even that ā ā ā ā hand pass from Ambrose that nearly got him clobbered on the last line. Should never have been dropped
Does not panic!
Canāt believe he was dropped!
MACKIE MK2
Shouldnt have been dropped and should not be dropped again
Why was he out?
There isnāt an acceptable answer.
Great response from him so far. Not scared to go through the middle either.
Drop him next week. Too composed.
that pick up off the ground.
what a swoop, like a carpet bombing raid.
Great first half, composed and clean.
Composure is a rare commodity at Essendon. The mind boggles as to why he was dropped.
Showed exactly why he should be persisted with.
Could be one of the better medium talls in the game.
Good tank, great skills, decent hands and solid mark. He just needs games.
Composed and delivers the ball beautifully. Takes the brave kicks. Heās going to be something special.
Heās a classy player - Lock him in for the next ten years.
He plays like he is from hawthorn or geelong.
My boy. Better not get fkn dropped.
Love him back in the side but I wouldnāt be suprised to see him dropped for Hooker when he is fit for āteam balanceā
Love how he absorbs the physical contact from his opponent as heās kicking but refuses to rush it.
Best kicking action under pressure in our side.
If he gets dropped again this year I will lose it.
He is a deadset fun.
Him and a Redman in the backline would be two seriously composed and sublime kicks.
