B-Rizzle Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Agreed. He’s done pretty well. Nice to have the balance of a left sided player there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandro Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Finally, a positive from a game! Very solid debut, but as always, young lad, keep expectations realistic. Good on the ball, but needs to be stronger - which is to be expected for an 18 year old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grifty Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Solid yet unspectacular debut, didn't look out of place. Couple of nice touches including a back heel. Didn't realise how big he was - 6'4"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Certainly didn’t look out of place, at least he looked up for it too. I would be happy if he gets more game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has to start Saturday Yeah - I'm not going to get carried away after one game but he was solid and looked more at home on the left side of defence than any of our fit players at the moment. I feel Moore has earned a chance to cover for Mawson too, to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tin Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Towler was the only positive from today. Nice to have balance on the left, looked comfortable on the ball, and didn’t look out of place. A promising debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime opportunity to give the likes of Towler regular game time, look at options upfront let’s play people who want to be here next season I've been saying this for a while - despite giving a few youth players more games, it's taking 4 or more injuries in their position for them to get on the pitch for more than 10 minutes under Holden. Time to look to next season and give them all debuts and experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Red Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Thought he, understandably, looked a bit unsure of himself early on but grew into it and was very good after half time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacki Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Definitely looked more at home than Mariappa has in that role. Promising debut for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlastonburyRed Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Looked quietly accomplished, physically there is a lot of work to do (understandable at his age - don't want to go OTT in the gym mind you). We should be careful not to put pressure on the lad though, particularly given he's debuted whilst everyone else has been looking largely cr@p.

Exactly how I saw it, very conservative first half with his use of the ball, but actually, when he got his head up and looked forwards, did very well. As far as 18 year old debuts go, the lad can feel very pleased with himself tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More excited about what's to come in a few years maybe but at 18, that is some performance. Reminds me a bit of Kelly. Looks about the same height, taller than Mawson when lined up. And deceptively quick. Got a calmness to his play. He could even get forward last 10 mins or so when we had Semenyo up top with Palmer in behind. Some actual all round strength, pace and technical ability in forward areas. Gambled in the second half could have been through on goal! we’re meant to have a pathway Saturday will prove it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better Red Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Played ok but I don’t think we should get carried away. Looks neat and tidy on the ball. But for a ‘left back’ looked a bit light weight and lacked aggression for me. Very young so will get physically stronger. I would like to see what he is like going forward. If he plays in a back 5 will need to get forward more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRock Posted February 10, 2021 Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Decent debut. Bit weak at times nearly costing a goal in the first half but a really nice cheeky back heal at one stage. Positionally sound. Best compliment is we’ve more to worry about elsewhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
