    Re: I love Harbrow

    Another really good performance tonight. His consistency over the past 4 or 5 weeks has been great.

    Fast becoming a really important player in our team.

      With rebound being so important in the way football is being played now, he really has made the rebounding BP position his own. I'll take the odd mistake if he is going to try that hard to make the play.

        Too true Mantis, he's really starting to use his anticipation too, great to have someone to run from defence.

          As do I because when it comes off he is really able to break open the play. We were becoming a little predictable bringing the ball out of defence, but Jarrod brings a certain amount of unpredicatability to our defence and so far it is paying dividends.

            His ability (and willingness) to take it to players is terrific. Makes things happen.

              I don't think it is pure coincidence that our recent good form has coincided perfectly with Jarrod's introduction into the team. Almost every time he was involved in the play tonight we managed to gain an inside 50, simply because as soon as he sidesteps an opponent we are man-on until the last marking contest.

              It absolutely destroys any chance of an opposition setting up an effective zone.

                Really polished performance tonight. Would have had him in the top 4 or 5 players on the ground.

                  Reminds me very much of McMahon if McMahon was more dependable defensively and was more consistent.

                              Hutchy was giving the dogs a big rap, but Thomas and Lyon were playing it down, Lyon especially, saying that he will wait for the big games before he makes his mind up.

                              They showed several examples of Jarrod bringing the ball out of the back line, taking on players and setting up the the forward attacks. Hutchy was saying that he has made the difference to the bulldogs backline, giving them another avenue to run the ball out of the backline, rather than just Gilbee or Griffin, which had become a bit predictable. (I think he must have read that on here)
                              Yeah, he read that here, two years ago.

                                Very impressive. He looked far more composed with the ball in his hands tonight. He didn't run around making irrational decisions which was pleasing to see.

                                He's obviously a very coachable young kid.
                                I think last night's effort topped that by a very fair margin.

                                Don't think he made a mistake all night, kicking was exceptional, chased hard.

                                He's fast becoming a dashed good player.
