Justin Sherman

[GVGjr]

Last season Sherman was mainly used as a forward and I thought he had an inconsistent season. He only managed 14 games due to injury and suspension but we should be expecting more from him in 2012.

What position is he best suited to in our side?

Re: Justin Sherman

High half forward for mine, lets him get up into the midfield and around the pill where he can use his pace but retains his danger around goals on the way through. Pigeonholing him as a deepish forward really doesnt let him use that explosive pace which is his main asset but hes not accountable enough to be a regular midfield rotation, a definite tweener.

Re: Justin Sherman

Interesting one,

Didn't really get the ball anywhere near enough and showed very little defensive efforts.

That really limits his versatility.

He will need to improve or others will stay ahead of him

I don't know enough about the Williamstown squad for 2012.

Re: Justin Sherman

Half forward and maybe on the wing. He played some ok footy before the suspension/foot injury.

Has to work on a few things.

So who is in front of him at Williamstown that should come in for him?

He needs to be able to use a combination of pace and his nous for goals, he should play high forward and attempt to get as many one-twos as he can at full speed. He's a one trick pony but his trick is a good one so he needs to be able to optimise it.

He is an explosive, dynamic and enthusiastic headless chicken.

Re: Justin Sherman

I like Sherman and thought he was good at Brisbane but he disappointed this year. He needs to work harder for longer and get down and dirty more often. Saying that he not on his Pat Malone on that one.

Re: Justin Sherman

He is a natural finisher but needs to show a bit more next season although I can see him being an important goal kicker for us if he steps up a bit next season

That is a fairly good description of him.

He would be a nice finisher in a good team, but if your team is struggling I can't see him being the one to get you back in the game.

Re: Justin Sherman

I'm still quite happy with what he can offer us. He's not the smartest footballer, but he's got speed and can kick a goal.

It's hard to define a clear role for him, but I'd like to see him able to use his speed further up the field to break lines, as well as having the ability to get deep forward, crumb a goal and provide some defensive pressure as his pace makes him along with Dahlhaus our best options in that sort of role.

I guess playing as a "half forward" is the shot. Between him, Tutt and Dahlhaus we should be a consistently quicker side next year.

It'd be nice if he'd put in more than a half hearted chase every now and then.

Bingo. Worth the price of admission alone. If we saw 30+ over the top celebrations in 2012 he is doing very, very well.
