Lachlan Lewis v Josh Reynolds

[Matilida]

What I have seen of Lachlan, all I can say why has he not been in first grade all year.

 

[Moey]

There is no comparison between these two. 2 totally different players with different attitudes and abilities and style of play.

According to some of my female acquaintances, Lewis is in the same boat with Holland

"Apparently" its Holland's eyes vs Lewis' smile

If only we still had kasiano smiling with his hungry eyes. We'd be the prettiest team.

Very similar type players. I am basing it off what i have seen Lachlan play a few games. He is still young and raw and will get better, but from what i have seen, here are a few things.

Both rely on that energy/passion.

Both have very average kicking games and what is frightning is they both dont look like natural kickers. That is when they kick, both of there styles look very akward.

Both dont really have natural flare in attack. Josh has a really good step and acceleration off the mark. Josh also developed an ok pass.

Where Lachlan is far far far far different is in defense. His technique is awesome and is very very sound in defense.

I know Lachlan is very young, but i see alot of similarities between the 2 in terms of what they can bring to a team, especially on offense.

If they’re very similar that’s a big worry... my gosh you are making it out as if it’s a compliment that they’re similar

Only comparison is they’re both average at best

Reynolds had a bit too much mongrel in him - gave away penalties and put us under pressure. OK, the opposition sometimes didn't know what he'd do next, but neither did our side. Lewis has a good kicking game, that needs a bit of fine tuning, and he has more self control. We need self control when things get tough - no point gifting penalties and field position after the rest of the team have tackled their hearts out.

What I see Lewis gives the team is more balance in the halves. Foran does not have a long kicking game, he will occasionally put in a bomb or grubber but really does not get involved in kicking for field position. I was hoping that when we signed Cogger he would have brought along that along. WHat I have seen from Cogger though is, that he too does not have a long kicking game.

Lewis brings it, whether he is alongside Foran or Cogger next year we will have a more balanced team. Early games this year Mbye was having to get involved out the back putting kicks in. This affected our structures and his running game.

I see that Lewis will be the first half picked next year, his partner will depend on what happens in the pre season

 

[coach]

Josh Reynolds was very good for us, I think people forget a bit
He would turn nothing into something with just Plain determination
Yes he wasn't the most gifted half but had a big heart
Lewis has been very good, very impressed with him
For me it's comparing apples and oranges....
Excited for young Lewis
I think at this stage it's prolly him n Foran our halfs next year
Jmk not in my 17 unfortunately

If only we still had kasiano smiling with his hungry eyes. We'd be the prettiest team.

And literally the hungriest because kas would steal everyone else's food

 

[enoughsaid]

The sad reality is that a generation of fans will grow up thinking Reynolds is the best player they have seen play

 

[Baseball Furies]

Why? So TK can shit on him when he doesn't reach there unrealistic expectations?

That would never happen on TK, we don’t roll like that here...

 

[doggieaaron]

Lewis big time and getting better and better

 

[Lov_Dog]

How about the meterage Lewis earns us from penalties; nice for a change to grab more than 10-15 meters!!

~c.

 

[SPEARTAKVIDREFS]

There nothing alike.

 

[Straight18]

His become a no go zone... Having two halves that can defend is definitely a pleasure to see.

Yeah man its handy hey. Hopefully the club brings in a real good halfs coach for the off season. How well does cogger defend anyone ? I know we need attack desparately as well but if one or 2 come good for us it will be comforting knowing they can defend.

Mate there no where near the same Lewis has a great kicking game fantastic technique in tackling he just dosnt take the line on at the moment. The other bloke has no kicking game at all he just has more energy and throws him self in the line and he is are raging lunatic and grubb and unpredictable fwd passes trips brain explosions. Where Lewis is very calm.

 

[Snowmann]

The closest thing these 2 have in common is they both have 12 letters in their names.

 

[maroondog72]

Lewis has talent that’s the difference

 

[maroondog72]

Agree with you.. I think in time we all see how good lewis will be and will take a plunge here and say he will be a rep player unfortunately for Queensland, but think he will be a player a lot of dogs supporters have been waiting for. An idol they can go to the games to watch. Been a while since we had one.

Lewis/ponga combo for qld mmmmmmmm yeah baby
