Re: Tom Williams - comment from Dennis C
If he is ready for seniors again, why play him in a so called "easy game", if he's ready he's ready for any game, he isn't exactly a first game player.
However, from what i have seen in recent times and reports from VFL games, Everitt is far from ready to play, at least until he shows a bit more intensity, he isn't IMO a player that needs to play seniors to develop, Williams does.
At least with Williams, he holds down an extremely important position in the side, especially come finals time, he needs to play, simple as that, Everitt isn't a key defensive player at this stage.
If Williams does nothing more in a game than just keep his opponent at bay, we can live with that, with Everitt, he is a more natural footballer, we all know that however, you're not going to play him on a Buddy or Kosi, they will just use Everitt like a rag doll.Comment

Re: Tom Williams - comment from Dennis C
Play him in an easy game so in case he does play crap it shouldn't matter hehe
I just liked him a lot last year. Just disappointed this year and want him to make his mark in the senior team.Comment

Re: Tom Williams - comment from Dennis C
Two weeks in a row Williams has shut down his opponent, and also had an efficiency of 100%.
More games he plays, the better he will get.Comment

Re: Tom Williams - comment from Dennis C
He's just important for the structure; think forward a week.
The good thing was tonight he looked composed, more importantly, got another game under his belt injury free.[COLOR="Red"][B][U][COLOR="Blue"]85, 92, 97, 98, 08, 09, 10... Break the curse![/COLOR][/U][/B][/COLOR]Comment

Re: Tom Williams - comment from Dennis C
He's like a racehorse that is rubbish after a spell but clicks into gear at the 2nd start. Happened last year as well when he was rushed into the team against Freo in Perth and was a liability but then was terrific the following week on Buddy.
He looked in very good touch this week, and our defensive structure looks so much better with him in it."Look at me mate. Look at me. I'm flyin'"Comment

Re: Tom Williams - comment from Dennis C
Very happy with his game tonight. Spoiled his opponent and looked composed with the ball. That's all we need from him, to be self sufficient in looking after his opponent allowing the other defenders to look after the rest and Murphy to play forwardIf you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

Re: Tom Williams - comment from Dennis C
I think tonight's performance just goes to show that our footy department know what they're doing when it comes to Tom.
Now everyone cross their fingers that he'll get a good run with the injury gods.
And to answer Dry Rot's question - he's probably not a top 8 CHB, but he could easily end up as one.Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.Comment

Re: Tom Williams - comment from Dennis C
As I've said previously he was probably brought back a week too early, but he played very well tonight. He looked confident and was assured with everything that he was doing. Made some good spoils, showed good body work in the contest and was composed with the ball in hand.W00F!Comment

Re: Tom Williams - comment from Dennis C
What was most impressive tonight was the improvement in his awareness. Was rarely caught out of position, and judged the flight of the ball quite well.- I'm a visionary - Only here to confirm my biases -Comment
