Josh Reynolds - 2012 Discussion Thread

[Slippery]

General discussion on match form, selection, injuries, contracts, and anything else here.

 

[BulldogzLegend]

a match winner

and one of the nicest blokes you will ever meet

competitive as all hell

 

[doggieaaron]

would love him to be given crack at 5/8 and romelo utility/impact off the bench,i would be very curious to know what des thinks of reynolds.

 

[BankstownBulldog]

I love Reynolds.

He should be putting all his effort into developing a kicking game because if he possessed a good one, he would make a very good 5/8 imo.

 

[d_eye]

My favourite bulldog for the last couple of years.
We better no let this kid go anywhere.
He has so much passion for the game and the club, and it's true that he is one of the nicest most down to earth guys.

Quietly speaking, I'd rather him over ennis any effin day.
Everyone will realize this soon.

 

[dogsday]

Great talent, his only problem he goes a bit overboard & gives away stupid penalties ( ala ennis ) absolutely love his toughness & passion for the game, show your aggression when its needed,
we don't need stupidity.

 

[bulldogluke]

reynolds actually has a direction of play and can control the ball when necessary and can create something from nothing. Unlike Keating who is too predictable and slow. Reynolds also has speed and a good step I'd give him the five-eight jersey next year would make a handy combo with Hodko

He's sh*t.

 

[S4Sonny]

He's sh*t.

Have you not seen his fully sick moves?!

 

[Allan]

It's sensational luck or planning that we have a player like Reynolds in the wings. He flourished under Dymock and I hope that Des can bring him on even further. If he stays injury free and works on his kicking game he could be anything.

 

[polecat]

he is a real footballer, looking forward to him kicking on this season

 

[Benny77]

love this bloke, great aggressive attitude! if we let him go i see another Thurston type situation happening, maybe not as good as JT, but would bite us on the ass

 

[Raysie]

He's going to have a big year in 2012. I wouldn't be too surprised if Hasler picks Reynolds as first choice 5/8.

wouldn't change ennis with anyone

Ennis is also a top bloke outside footy

we are a different team with Ennis

Reynolds still cant defend in the middle very well can miss tackles

kid is a footballer

But Ennis controls the ruck and gets the forwards rolling on and has a crisp passing game

agreed

 

[Izzy Forreal]

Reynolds is a passionate player who always keeps going forward. If he can control his aggression he'll have a big 2012. I hope he does 'cause I can't see anyone else's hamnd up for the five eighth spot.

agree with this !! his defence must be worked on, misses too many easy tackles in the middle of the ruck. like a little terrier though with a little work could easily become a solid player
must add a kicking game to his arsenal if he want's to cut in first grade though

Reynolds service is also slow out of dummy half. In his first game (against Canberra) it was almost slow motion. Slow ball obviously allows the defensive line to get up and restricts metres, as if we didn't struggle to make metres as it is.

Totally agree, great potential but a utliity player off the bench at this stage - needs to develop more and get the kicking happening which is why i have Romelo ahead of Reynolds at this stage, maybe not as much shine but way more consistant.

 

[Izzy Forreal]

I think it was in the 2011 pre season trials that Josh Reynolds was a standout at half back. Bearing this in mind, if Hasler is a big Keating fan I wpoldn't be surprised to see Reynolds at half and Keating at five eighth. Although, I suppose a big indicator of who plays where in the halves would depend on who is better at driving the forwards around and how good their kicking games are.
