N Davis could kick a footy - Williams cannot!!! Image

I now see why he spent so long on the WCE bench!

And he certainly kicked 3 (or was it 4?) good straight goals against us last year.

I reckon Williams is an excellent pick up he marked well last nite ans as for his kicking for goal.I'm pretty sure he kicked five goals against us when the Wet Toast pumped us on their patch of turf.By the way with Josh down on form how about Giving Lou a run in the ruck.It must be make or break time for Viv this year.

9 points or 6 points? seems to me that the umps have discretion to this rule - against the filth Molloy marked in 50/kicked outside 50 and paid 9 - Rocca did the same yesterday and was only paid 6 -think they should have 1 rule -if you kick a goal outside 50 must be 9.

Oh my! I better watch the tape again.
So many people have accused Shaw and Williams of poor disposal that I took particular notice when I watched it last night. My verdict? 90% of these guys kicks hit the target! The majority of the kicks that missed were done under extreme pressure, even Bux would not have been able to pin-point these.
As for the 6/9 points thing, yes Molloy "got away with it" last week. This was yet another mistake by the orange rabbit, this time in our favour.

Williams will be one of the pick ups of the season. His marking ability overhead for a player of his size is fantastic. He can play down back, in the middle or up forward.

Next people wlll be telling me Licuria has poor disposal and was a friggin dud...lol lol

Williams gets better everytime I see him. He has adjusted to teh team plan quicker than most and as he did his first few years under Malthouse. If he wasn't anygood Malthouse would not have picked him up. I will go with Malthouse on this one Image

Just cant understand the reasoning behind that post understudy, Williams was fanstastic, takes a great mark on the lead and always presents, considering we only gave up Adkins who couldnt crack it with us then I think MM and co have another great find here.

Burns like always was terrific and Bucks and Tarkyn were also impressive out of the midifield. Tarrant found his kicking boot and the small forwards (Dids and Leon) continue to impress. Also I'm very excited about Molloy for 2003, looks a totally differant player doesnt he, adds so much stregth.

MY VOTES:
5. Burns
4. Lockyer
3. Davis
2. Buckley
1. Tarrant

Remember my comments about Williams when we get to see him in the heat of a real battle - my hunch is this bloke is weak and unreliable from set shots and snaps - not what u want from a hff.

I was impressed by Shaw but he may also be exposed when things get tough.

You are all getting a bit carried away (especially in regard to Williams) - lets see how they go when things hot up.
