Post subject: No game breakers? | |

Daisy Thomas gone, Dids retired etc
I think Elliott has the potential to a game breaker, but i dont see anyone else.
Pendles cannot do it on his own.
Swanny unfortunately is in the twillight of his career now, and its showing in his performances. Serviceable today. |

I thought Broomhead little cameo shows he could be the next one to step up...
Just saying. |

The expectations on this forum at least, will fall upon Freeman and Scharenberg i guess. Just hope they don't turn out to be James Wasley types, watching the games from inside the medical rooms, and costing us the next Nick Stevens in the process. _________________ M I L L A N E 4 2 forever |

Well...I don't know about you but I'd consider the Fas a potential game breaker. But tough titties fellas, Bucks favours honest plodders over someone who can actually make a significant impact on the game. |

Unfair comment. Far from being his fault that we lost today. Just a few mystifying moments in the last that were too fresh in my mind. _________________ Well done boys! |

I wouldn't call Daisy a gamebreaker anymore. The guy averages like 16 possessions a game with most of them short sideways passes and dinky handballs. Just doesn't take the game on anymore.
I think players such as Seedsman, Marley etc have the potential to be game breakers through their ability to take on players. Seems our game plan going forward is to build a backline of game breakers rather than rely on a talented half forward line that we did in the past.
Having said that I would love to see Blair's position given to a more offensive forward. Goldsack can provide the defensive pressure cause he can at least run down players unlike Blair |

Agree, these 2 are our game breakers and thought they tried to yesterday. Especially Seedy in the last quarter. _________________ "Still waiting for your call Caroline ... not a quote in sight. Don't ever presume to speak on Collingwood's behalf," |

I think that's why we recruited Freeman, but injury seems to have ruined his 2014 season. Broomhead certainly has a bit of dash about him. I hope he keeps his place in the team for a couple of weeks to enable him to settle in. Sadly, it's beginning to look like Swanny's best is past him. |

Agree that he has the capabilities to break a game open as we saw last year before his foot injury. We played hawthorne in an early round and he came on as the sub in the last qtr and changed the game. Consistency is his enemy, however. |
