Possibly as I heard there were 2 Carlton guys with binoculars there checking out the size.

Holy moly

Sheil back in the 22

So we will probably lose our only small forward back to Tassie in a few years time.

Iā€™ve said previously, shiel is like a body builder, looks strong as ā– ā– ā– ā–  but has no functional strength, could honestly be the size of guelfi and have the same power.

And still canā€™t kick or hold a tackle.

Suspect Shiel is trimming down these days as he ages. If people havenā€™t worked out already, that photo is 2 years oldā€¦ hint: Thereā€™s a cursed logo somewhere in the pic.

Edit: according to X it was last year, which actually I think we had supply issues with UA. Anyway, Iā€™d still wager heā€™d be slimming down these days.

I canā€™t remember who it was, but he absolutely smacked a renowned hard midfielder in one particular contest last year. Butters maybe? Shielā€™s clearly a beast. He just doesnā€™t play that physical style of game. When fit, ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  great player nonetheless. Letā€™s hope he gets some luck this year. Stringer too.

What does Sheil have against body fat?

How we use shiel is one of the most intruiging things heading into next year imo

Agreed,

Iā€™ll put in the book,
Forward flank with stints in the middle.

Last year, he was the number 1 centre square clearance player in the league. Pretty sure he just slots straight back in there, barring injuries.

And couldnā€™t find the tape when it was asked to be used as evidence

Yuck.

Shiel is a woeful forward.

Just coz he kicks a goal here and there whilst up forward doesnā€™t mean weā€™ve found a new position for him.

^ many peoplesā€™ reactions in early 2023

I heard that it was Clive James who came up with this comment when talking about Arnie.

Yep, Iā€™m very confident we win the lot this yearā€¦ After a great home and away season we finish 3rd and beat the scum in the GF.

Absolutely!! He is VFL quality now, watching him play doesnā€™t put in second efforts, looks lost at times and his 2021 performance has dropped off dramatically
