Lachie Schultz (Shooter)

[ANNODAM]

I thought he had a poor night with a few brain fades, the hack kick on the wing to absolutely no one when he could have given the handball off. The silly retaliation that could have cost us dearly.

Lots of undisciplined acts with and without the ball.

If we had’ve lost, it would’ve been on his head!

[Ronnie McKeowns boots]

Far out!
Frankly I thought a few were blowing all too much smoke up his arse in describing the difference he could make, but he was great!
Agree with the comment that he was very Adams-like, just what we needed.

Full game next week, maybe play him on the Wunderkid?

[thesoretoothsayer]

I also don't get the hate for this guy.
He contributes more pressure acts in a game than Ginni did his whole Collingwood career.

[daics aka the ruckman]

The way he kicked that goal was the look of a confident and calm and talented footballer.
To finish the game with 8 score involvements is fantastic.

Shultz is the player many love to bag, we always have one. He's in my 22 simply for his pressure on the ball carrier. 7 tackles last night with two clearances. He made some errors but alas so did others. I keep saying the expectations of him have been way too high. Everyone wants mega goals and it just won't happen with our game plan as we spread/share the load.

Nah, just want to see him do more given the high cost of the trade

[mgh3536]

I reckon he is about to step up and start to hit scoreboard more often
He is doing the pressure stuff now the offensive skills will start
Back him in

That'll happen in maybe 3 weeks time as he'll likely be suspended for punching Acres in the back of the head.
Sadly, there is no discount for punching a Carlton player. There should be, but there isn't.

Punching a Carlton play should be an automatic Order of Australia.

[What'sinaname]

Copped 1 week.

Punching a Carlton play should be an automatic Order of Australia.

Absolutely

[lanstro]

Shame he lost the plot a bit late in the game, the enforced holiday will disrupt the little bit of form that he was working into. Lays important tackles, is useful up the ground, and contributes even when he's obviously out of form. Feel like he'll be our modern day Medhurst when it all clicks.

[BazBoy]

With Beau automatic out protocol for concussion plus JDG still dealing with groin issue reckon Sullivan with be in the 22 from first bounce

[Charlie Oneeye]

Bad kick across the ground wasn't good, but in fairness some fluffed disposals from most other too on the night.


In the heat of the game we are mostly riding clangers and heroic acts, but watching the replay other nuances come to light. Schultz's pressure all game was more than good, excellent, actually.


As far as the week suspension,, thats crap. A free was paid, and maybe a fine should have been enough, if that.

See ya at the Tribunal.

[woodys_world69]

right infront of the umpire with a strike that he had to stride/lean into to make contact in the back of the head... lol no chance of getting off this.

IMO take the week hit and put harrison forward.
bring in carmichael for MCreery's concussion
