I don't recall him missing any sitters. Tight snap in the pocket and two 50 metre kicks were his misses.

Re: Rhys Stanley
He's usually a good kick. What he REALLY needs to improve is his one touch overhead marking. Needs to go to Dempster school.
Gehrig emerged from scans yesterday saying he was "as sweet as a bun"

Reckon it's a matter of time - has had a lot of missed time this season with injury so will get better for sure if all goes well.Munga wrote:He's usually a good kick. What he REALLY needs to improve is his one touch overhead marking. Needs to go to Dempster school.
Think he's going to be a good one for the mighty Saints.

Re: Rhys Stanley
Don't forget that he has played very little football in about 8 weeks.
He went to all the right places , but was understandably a bit rusty.
Roo , Stanley will make a great combo next year. Wilkes may be the third banana as he now does more than Kosi.
Siposs may be if he bulks up more, though today he was being the understudy for BJs normal role.

Re: Rhys Stanley
I have less confidence in his kicking for goal than Nick Riewoldt.
How can anyone be less reliable kick than Riewoldt.
A team puts so much effort into getting the ball to a key forward.
They should be made to apologise to the whole team when they miss a set shot.

On the commentary on channel 7 Malthouse said when they did the analysis on S.kilda last year with Watters as the defensive coach, they believe Rhys was an 'untapped' star.

Have you ever heard an ex coach give one of his prior staff such a verbal hummer as MM did on Watters today?andrewg wrote:Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuppppppeeeerrrrrrrrrr staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hooly dooly its a wonder he didn't offer up his daughter to him.

Re: Rhys Stanley
Paul Roos had tickets on himself early on in the match he was covering. Another biased verbal shitstorm, but this time it bit him on the arse...Fair dinkum - why do Foxtel let him cover the Swans games...Is that in his contract or is it cheaper for Foxtel because he lives there?? He came out with some big statements about his former club when they shot out to a big lead. He was full of praise and reckoned they were back to their best and were playing a 'classic' Sydney style of game!! What a waankerrr!!! Did he mean a 'classic' Roos style of play?!!
Hawks had a brilliant win and as always, the better teams have learned how to overcome the press and the flood with skill and scoreboard pressure. Maybe Longmire needs to get his players to forget about the 'classic' Roos style of play and just keep playing attacking footy if they want to beat the likes of Hawks and Collingwood come finals time

Re: Rhys Stanley
It's his kicking from over 40m he needs to work on.
Distance ain't a problem, but frequently tugs the balls too far to the right.

Until we have an administration that demands success and a playing group that bleeds for the guernsey, St. Kilda will just be a sh*tty football club.

Re: Rhys Stanley
it looked like he was running at 80% tonight....
but i think that is a good thing, no point injuring himself now, just get through the season, and concentrate on doing better next year....

Re: Rhys Stanley
I don't like Stanley's body language. He generally mopes around with his head down and looks incredibly embarrassed and miserable whenever he makes a mistake. When he does slot a goal or take a big mark he looks relieved rather than happy or pumped.
He has the tools to be a dominant force and we've started to see glimpses occasionally when his confidence is high. But until he really starts to believe in himself and isn't afraid to impose himself on the game, he's not going to do much damage.
With a really strong pre season (needs to strengthen his core and legs) and a set in stone role within the team I hope he could have a breakout season next year. His goalkicking is simply a confidence issue as well - he can slot them from 55m at Sandy but misses goals from 30m out in the seniors.

Midfield clearances and clear winners are needed to make an effective forward line.

Re: Rhys Stanley
Robert Shaw is a huge fan and bsically compared him to a young Natinui (in game time I mean) saying he did five things yesterday that Nic Nat does.
Finey also (and rightly) pointed out he also does lots of things kosi does (not in a flattering way mind you) BUT pointe dout he was a work in progress.
When Fine mentioned he was fast, Shaw said FAST? he is INCREDIBLY Fast.
Rhys Stanley is certainly a prospect.

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>.
