Just OK.
Trys hard , though slow and when you play forward you must kick goals and thats his problem. When he played though he gave us something when BBBH was missing and provided a target. Handy backup for injuries.Est 1874

Was OK in the games he played. Can take a mark, but kicking for goal was atrocious.
Would he better in the backline? Is reasonably quick, has good reach for spoiling, which is needed these days as it is taboo to lay a finger nail on someones back.
Could handball off too running players, Malceski, Mattner, Bolton and Kennelly. A Dunkley couldn't kick either, but often had someone running past for the handball.Comment

And only just.
Unless he can improve his kicking, he's very quickly going to become a list clogger. No space for him in the back line and he doesn't have the engine for the midfield. As a 3rd, 4th or 5th target in the fwd line he might be handy but that doesn't matter when you can't kick for @@@@ and convert some of those spctactular marks into goals.Comment

Brings his teammates into the game by leading up constantly and creating space for the likes of MOL.
It was no coincidence that MOL hit a real purple patch in the weeks that Playfair was in the team.
Season ruined by injury overall, but if he can stay fit he has a role IMO.Driver of the Dan Hannebery bandwagon....all aboard. 4th April 09Comment

Interesting points - I hadn't made the MickeyO connection. I assumed he was happy not playing next to a headcase
Anyone know Playfair's goal assist stats?
I gave him a 4, mainly because he missed a lot through injury. Like others here I appreciate his efforts, and that he gave us a big forward target.
Problem is, we have too many players with deficient foot skills - if Playfair could kick straight he'd be hard to leave out.The man who laughs has not yet heard the terrible newsComment

5. But waiting to see what happens in 2009.
He reminds me of Scotty Stevens, great hands, can't run. However did make a difference when great hands mattered. Scotty has made a life for himself at Adelaide in the role he can play. I expect Lumpy will be doing the same in Sydney. Playing to his strengths, which are height, reach, hands, assists. I think it will work, if only he didn't break himself so often!.If you've never jumped from one couch to the other to save yourself from lava then you didn't have a childhoodComment

Tries but slow, awkward and can't kick. A fairly ordinary footballer in my opinion.Bloods

4/10
Only played 11 games, didn't kick a lot of goals as a forward option but wasn't too quiet and played more games this year than his last 2 seasons at Geelong combined.
It's his best average in disposals (10.8), marks are consistent with previous years but only averages under a goal per game. He did have some good games against Essendon (12 disposals, 9 marks, 3 goals), Hawthorn and Melbourne and only a couple of ordinary performances against Port Adelaide and Adelaide (although that's due to injury).
The problem is definitely his kicking for goal and if somehow that can be improved, he might come good next year.
I only support one team: The SYDNEY SWANS!!!!! :adoreComment
