Colin Wiseby's take, from over at Extreme Black and White...cityslick1 wrote:sounds just like Sinkers
Goodyear: Sinkers Jnr. Quick, courageous, big tank hard-running goer but butchers the pill and too often gets into trouble through unawareness and inability to "think through". I wouldn't have considered him.

I could mention BJ, who was a shocker during his early career and no better through the middle years, but transformed his efficacy (if not his ungainly style) and became one of the most reliable kicks going around, but I suspect that he mostly taught himself.

...and for what it's worth, Knightmare as well:yeah i had him going early in the rookie though as thought couple of areas he was probably behind but at that pick its getting pretty hard to pick them
quick, hard and goes well around the stoppages but his ball use has been a bit iffy when I have seen him but maybe the 3-4 games I saw weren't representative.
Goodyear is useful. It's against the odds he makes it but generally that is the case with the mid draft guys. The positives are his hardness inside as a guy who can win it inside but then also has some explosion by position with some pace. Disposal efficiency needs to improve, seems really rushed and pressured much of the time with ball in hand which is the major issue but if he cleans that up then he has an opportunity to develop given that ball winning ability and burst of acceleration.
Looks incredibly fast. With McCrae to assist him with his disposal efficiency we may well have picked a good one. The highlight reel coming out of the centre was at pace was quite pleasing to watch.Dr Pie wrote:I am a bit disappointed that we didn't go for Tom Langdon's younger brother Ed, who went to Fremantle six picks later. Still, Goodyear's highlights tape is encouraging. If the majority of our players avoid injury Matthew will spend this year in the VFL, where hopefully he will be taught how to kick straight even when under pressure.
