    Ayce Cordy

    A thread about Ayce Cordy. What role do we see him play in the side. Some posters say he is a bit like Cameron Wight was and he eventually got delisted. A back up to Minson who has had a great season.

    Cordy was terrible again today whether playing forward or in the ruck. Campbell looks a lot better as a second string ruckman to Minson.
    I would seriously consider trading Cordy who hasn't really improved this year.

      Agree NBP. I really think his place in the side is in trouble. Who would we get for him though as I don't think his worth too much based on his performances at present.

        Don't think Cordy is going to make it, unfortunately. Not seeing much in terms of a bag of tricks, or any real ability to grit his teeth and give a bit extra to win the footy from an adverse situation.

          Lake had the ball about 60 metres out on the boundary and all Ayce was doing was standing in the goal square. I was on level 2 and yelled out for gods sake Cordy lead, but he just stood there. Lake was never going to kiik that ball 60 metres.

          He doesn't know know how to play the forward role. I would prefer he be coached into a ruck role, resting forward. He will not be a KPF.

            He's made a huge step forward this year but still isn't near where we need him to be.
            I have my doubts that he can improve enough.

              Too early to tell still.

              No improvement next year and it is bye bye though.

                He's how old?

                And how tall?

                Minson took 10 yrs to get to where he is today as a ruck. How many key forwards kill it in their first full season? How many are 200+ cm?

                Bit harsh here I reckon. Loads of time left to prove himself.

                  Reminds me a little bit of Andrew McDougall.

                    Seems a way off, but I thought Wallis wasnt going to be any good after last years effort.
                    Thankfully he has been great this year, and stepped up!

                    So theres still hope, happy to wait till he is 25 yrs old

                        He will play more in the ruck next year and we'll see what he's made of, most young ruckman struggle, especially in the current game, where most teams just let one ruckman ruck most of the game.

                          We could say the same if we added in the names of Roughead & Campbell... we clearly can't keep them all if we re-sign Minson.

                            The commentary team were all over Minson today. Re-wind a few years ago and he was the dumbest smart bloke in the AFL, a regular Anchor on the forums and so on.

                              Minson showed more potential than Cordy has in his first 14 games.
