Elgey Improving

[maxta]

He has slowly got into the Manly 5/8 role, but tonight made a few sensational tackles....threw the first key ball to Taufua to score and in general play is starting to know his role....just as important te players around him are gaining confidence which is key.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

His best game to date!!

 

[ManlyMatt]

Looks like he might be able to provide for DCE what yesterday's Foran did. Cherry looking like a superstar so signs are good.

 

[SeaEagle21]

Other than the dropped ball he had, he was great. Bit more confidence after a couple more wins and he'll provide a double threat on 5th tackle which will help DCE also

 

[The better Robbo]

Elgey and parker actually have a good defencive structure

 

[ManEagle]

Just got to give the guy time, he is playing in a high demand position, he was never going to slot straight in and do what we need him to do, he is improving every game. more confidence and more confidence to take a roll off DCE, and more comfortable, he is only going to get better, not a superstar, but solid.

Happy with LGs progress.
Has been defensively adequate., and came out of the shell in attack today.

Well done LG.

I think he keeps improving, last weekend at Brookie I thought he played great. Has made some good desperate tackles so far this season

Never in doubt
I'm disappointed people have been death riding him
He fits the manly culture

 

[PONTIAN SEA EAGLE]

It’s just a matter of time & we’ll be seeing a good combo.

 

[Lyonstomenzies]

I was really impressed with his defence tonight. He made some tough decisions and rushed up out of the line but he was effective when he tackled which really stopped their attack.

 

[Nordburg]

He has improved with each outing.Id like to see him run a bit straighter in attack at times though.Seems to run on an angle a bit,cramping the outside backs.But only positives so far

 

[Dan]

today shows signs of where elgey can really shine and he is gaining in confidence

 

[BrendonStarr]

Just needs to trim his fringe a touch. He is almost there

 

[manlyfan76]

Just keep improving a little here and there, you think Des will give him more of a roke as he improves.

 

[Tomay]

It always takes halves the longest to settle into a team. Their whole role depends on timing, coordination and confidence. The best thing has been his intent in defence, the rest will come.

 

[Loobs]

Took Green a few games to get going when he joined and plenty were calling for his head and by seasons end he was a borderline immortal

I remember DCE about this time in 2011 copping it on here, proved a few wrong.

 

[Paw93]

Told you guys that he'd keep improving with each win. Seemed like he was low on confidence in week 1. But he's settling in nicely now.

 

[Cioran]

His attacking game seems to be improving little by little but the truly astonishing thing is his defence. He was a turnstile at the GC but now he’s a solid one on one defender. What a difference fitness and confidence can make. I doffs me cap to LG and to the fitness and coaching team. Welcome aboard Kane.
