Farren Ray has been canonised.

Re: Farren Ray is a Dog

I loved watching Faz get the ball and carry but his disposal was often shocking, not just by foot, on many occasions by hand as well. Maybe it was more his decision making (especially under pressure) and awarenes than his skills. Might be hard to rectify parts of the game that are on the level of instinct... He also falls short on the physical side. Still, I would have tried to keep him at the club but who knows what goes on behind closed doors...

Good luck Faz, saints might be a better fit, just dont get in Mitch or Wills way...

Love that signature phroosh.

One of the problems with Ray's play was the instruction of carrying the ball into the forward line rather than being more instinctive and going for the first option. This really exposed his kicking skills in particular because he just wasn't good at pin pointing his team mates.
I think the Saints plan to use him as a HBF and I think he might be better suited to that role.

At least Fez left on good terms with the club - not like other players who bagged us out after they left eg McMahon and off course Nathan (I wanna play finals) Brown.

Canonised? How can he play for Calder Cannons?
I thought this was new thread

Re: Farren Ray has been canonised.

Interesting. A seasoned guy who probably feels he's got a few years left in him. Wonder if he'll find a home.

Re: Farren Ray has been canonised.

Farren was never a star but a foot soldier who had a career over 200 games and played in a grand final. Good luck to him.

Re: Farren Ray has been canonised.

Not just 200 games, but 200 serviceable games. Surprising.

Didn't he want a 2 year contact and Saints would only offer 1 year? #backfired

You'd have to think he walks into Carltons best 22 if he wanted into it.

An honest battler who through luck with injury eked out an incredible number of games.

Would have to be the biggest backhanded compliment ever seen on a footy banner.
