Yep, was very good yesterday. I really don't like having him and Levi in the same team, though.
kill for collingwood!

Taylor Adams

Post by Mugwump »

One thing I noticed n a rewatch of the replay was how Taylor Adams was nearly always the first bloke to embrace a goal scorer, tap someone on the head for a pressure act, etc. His real jubilation and passion for the club flows out of every pore, and his leadership, aggression and connection with every one of his teammates is a key part of this side and its spirit. He is no slouch as an extractive and running midfielder, but this value to the side is often underestimated. I love the bloke.

Agreed; it is great to see such enthusiasm and teamsmanship from the bloke.
The guy has never played in a final, and the carrot is dangling right in front of his nose at present. I hope it catches the rest of the team in the same manor.

Great team player. Never gives up. Never gets thrown when he makes a blunder either. Just keeps going. A lot to like about that.

he's not just the first there, he lingers, and lingers and lingers. He hugs players for an uncomfortably long time and its a full on bear hug. Check out some of the hughs in the third qwuarter especially.

Hes a glue guy. Without glue guys, teams cannot be good.... Its just a simple fact.

This.

has limitations, but I'm a fan because he leaves nothing on the field. Hard as a cats head and has anger issues to boot. I like the boy.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

You're all underappreciating his kicking and skills. I saw at least two incisive kicks into the corridor that opened the field up and led to goals. His banana in the last was skillful too. He's a first round draft pick, you don't get there by being a spud.
