He has played quite well in plenty of games this season even getting to the point where he was being tagged ahead of Judd. That is a win for us and we won those games well. The games he did get tagged were quiet but he did stuff. Laid loads of tackles and in the end ran his opponents into the ground.

Considering he had an op during the preseason and missed a load of it i think he is having a season on par with my expectations.

for his standards, his form has been very average this year but given the pre-season (or lack thereof) he had he has actually exceeded my expectation from him this year. has proven that when he has had good luck with injury he does perform, 2 runner ups in the b&f to the best player in the comp are testament to that. i'll be ready to judge him more harshly next season if he does manage to get a proper pre-season under his belt hoping the rumours about his hips and legs being chronically injured are bullshit.

Obviously the other teams rate him highly as he rarely gets out there now without a tight tag.
Wooshers ineptitude gave the clubs a reminder of how dangerous he can be without a quality stopper.

I think I know what you're talking about. Still, showed some glimpses of what we'd like to see yesterday.

Thats pretty harsh

He was excellent yesterday. Worked extremely hard around the ground and did a lot of work without the ball. A tough critic could definitely have judged him as front-runner at numerous times last year, but I have been impressed with his defensive work and running both ways this season.

I think he has been very good this year.

His form has been very good this year.
Just ask the opposition supporters after every game; they're not so harsh as TC posters.

So far so good. He has a skillset like no other.
I really like the fact we have a dynamic midfield with each midfielder the ability to do something different and play different roles to the next one.

He's no longer a fledling footballer. Has stacked on the muscle and is a tough little player.
Gets his own ball and when he tackles it sticks.

I reckon he's very good in traffic.

Tough as nails yesterday. Got his own ball. Used it well. Ran hard. Tackled harder and scored a great goal.

You can swap him for Dale Thomas or Xavier Ellis if you like?

Very good point.

Alot of people forget that he hardly had a pre season. To have as good of a season as he has had just goes to show how good he really is.
He aint soft thats for sure.
Thank god he decided not to go F/S.

Dont forget, Craig Bradley only started with us at 22 years of age and 100 games.

Best football is still 3 years away, but fantastic start to career.

Still needs to work on gut running and building up core strength.

I must be watching different games to some of you, cos I reckon Murph has been right up there amongst our best this year. yes he will always need to work harder at his defensive game, but then so does Judd.

Go Murph

LOL you really are quite funny. Is your comment directed at me, Grro or both of us? I'm guessing just me.

As it stands, Dale Thomas is harder at the contest than him. Just pull out a copy of last year's finals and watch Thomas put his body on the line against the Saints when his side was getting smashed. But I'll take Murph any day. He will be a much better player in the long run. In fact he already is a much better player. He's just not hard enough yet.
