Brennan Stack to Debut tonight

Re: Brennan Stack to Debut tonight

I'm hoping he follows a Hill path more than anything else- Hill wasn't setting the world on fire when he won his debut, but his story reads pretty well since then.

FWIW I still thought Grant showed a very clean pair of hands in his debut, even if his fitness & body aren't there yet. I'd expect him to play a few more games in the seniors next year.

It’s his performances since returning to Williamstown that have concerned me.

2 weeks ago he wasn't too bad. He really is the sort of player than needs to develop a fitness base because he times his leads fairly well and has such sticky hands, he could do alot of damge at senior level. He certainly has the ability but really seems to put pressure on himself.
I get the feeling that the high expectations some people have of him are at least matched by the expectations he has of himself.

Is there an age limit on criticism?

Well no, you choose to see it that way. I think they need some leeway though. People have far to much high expectations on kids nowdays. I really think people need to lower it a lot before criticising.

No, you said people were taking pleasure in running him down. Very different.

I didn't use a plural. I said SS seemed to be, it had nothing to do with you at all until now apparently. I still stand by what I said.

Nobody analysed his game until they were challenged. Again, you seem to have ignored points made above.

It was hardly challenged, as you said most people commented on position, attack, etc. etc. Again I'll stand by what I said, there was no need to over analyse his game and it was very harsh to do so.

How you can possibly take a comment on the thread as a personal attack on anyone is baffling.

Well in the context of the comment it was. You were insinuating that I can't handle a different opinion. That couldn't be further from the truth.

I would like to formally apologise to Brennan Stack and his family for any pain or embarassment I may have caused.

I did not in any way intend to imply that he was an over-rated hack who will never make it, nor did I intend to imply he should be delisted or killed.

I thought Gia did good!

That made me smile.

Dante,

If you keep positing stuff like that we'll have to have a "walk off" to sort it out....
