Marty Hore

Post by mudlark »

I've been following his fortunes in the Melbourne games I've watched and once again last night against the Eagles and I'm sort of wondering, did we miss something with this guy?? I don't get to see any VFL games up here in Queensland ,but Geez!! He's been going OK from what I've seen of him, particuarly that we were down so many backmen in the last few years.
Any thoughts.

Is pretty consistent but:
1. Not terrific with groundb balls
2. Can tend to miss targets (which is diabolical when coming off halfback)
3. Not particularly quick
3KZ is football

Which, of course, is exactly why we re-signed The Minister of Defence and let Marty go from our VFL list. Get a grip.

1 really good turnover a game is enough. Ask Marsh.

That’s a fair call. Although on the flip side, any team with O McDonald and Frost in defence, might afford him some leeway too :wink:

What has poor Marsh done to upset you? Did he park his car in your reserved spot?

Frost had at least one magnificent passage of play in the final two minutes against Hawthorn. His goal concession on the goal line against Freo late in the game (when he should have rushed it through) was horrific.
