Taylor Walker NAB rising Star

[Felch]

Walker is gone boys, trust me. GWS bound next year.

I've said it before, he's a flat track bully, a one-trick pony. That effort on the wing on Saturday night was embarrasing. He gets in Tippet's and McKernan's way in the forward 50, and has no second effort. Been saying it for a long time, and i have been getting shot down for it. I honestly cant see what all the fuss is about with him at all.

Is this a gut feeling, or actual knowledge?

I love the Tex, but I do worry how Tippett, Walker and McKernan can all fit in the same forward line? Personally I am starting to get fed up with Tippett, too many average games, can't kick, does nothing up the ground. If we had our time again, I'd let GC take him off our hands and give us a heap of picks.

You cant be serious re Tippett. Having a KPP that can mark is essential and what AFC lacked when trent went down in those prelim years. We get one of the best up and commers and you wanna blame him for the MIDS/DEF average football what a joke. A FWD is only as good as the delivery that comes to them. Kurt works his ass off more than not with little reward with slow ineffective ball movement.

Awesome as marking is, you've got to be able to KICK THE FOOTBALL!!

Great as kicking the ball is, you have to GET THE BALL

Well, let me just say that the players reckon he is gone. They would have a pretty good feel for things i think.

I agree with with FS, you must be kidding with Tippett ? He has a massive upside, he can ruck and i reckon he could play back if he really had too. Tippett and McKernan both have a bit of sh!t about them, something that cant be taught. P!ss off Walker asap.

[Gingernuts]

For everything that people say about him though, he has averaged 3 goals a game so far this year. About right for a second forward option really.

I'm not off the Walker bandwagon yet, I still think he has a role to play an can be a part of a dangerous forward combination with McKernan & Tippett.

I tend to agree.
Walker has improved and I thought the Crows finally learned something about how to use the three of them in the match against Carlton.
It was a pity about the big head start they gave Carlton before they got desperate enough to try something different though.

Adelaide fans seem to want every new promising player to be 'match winners' in their own right (ie win games off their own boot).

In reality having an even 3-4 goal contribution from the likes of Walker, Tippett & McKernan is a far better situation. Very difficult for opposition teams to counter a combination like that.

[scottiemc]

He's just bought a new house in Adelaide....

[tiger07andbeyond]

Did anyone see TW's hip-and - shoulder attempt on Jack Trengove at CHB in the last couple of minutes where Jack spun out of it and kicked a goal. It was deplorable and something you see in country footy not where players are getting paid $300k per year, pathetic TW and you can PO with Craigy.

GWS.

[tiger07andbeyond]

GWS.

please

[200 Killer Wasps]

Taylor Walker despite kicking 7 for the Redlegs today probably didnt do enough work off the ball so will be playing seconds for Norwood next week.

[catchisthecry]

Seeing on channel one a lot being made of Taylor being caught on camera at AAMI today having a couple of pints. Tony shaw says this shows he doesn't have the hunger to play at the highest level. Probably a bit strong, does show he's not the brightest kid going around tho!

[McAlmanac]

His face does have that dumb-as-a-hammer Corey McKernan look about him.

[Gingernuts]

Tony Shaw is an idiot. The bloke can have a beer while he watches his mates have a run FFS.

I swear the media want him to go - gives them something to dribble about. Leave the poor kid alone.

[Bag The Points]

I agree with the Crows dropping him at this time, and don't drink myself, but give the guy a break !!!!
He's not playing for the Crows tomorrow and he played his SANFL game Friday Night, so why can't he socialise with his mates ??
This is media over-the-top bulldust at its worst.

[tiger07andbeyond]

He is no brain surgeon.

Im an glad the media has brought this to everyone's attention.

[Footy Smart]

When did he play for NWD? Friday?

When was he drinking? Saturday?

Whats the F*cking big deal.
