Sam Power
I'm interested to hear the toughts on my man Sam. A bigger fan of his i'd like to know, i've always had faith that Sam would come good. On bigfooty i'll again run the "another Sam Power game, another win" thread.
Despite what i consider a break out year, many dont have him in our top 25 and still underrate him, often criticising his kicking skills. But look closely at his game, this ungamely looking kicks are almost always to advantge.
Last year he took his fair share of hits and geez does he have the fastest hands in the team, often just firing out the hands while opponents take him out. Which is not only a skillful way to have opponents not follow the pill, but very courageous. Also his ability to play tall and small and both outmark and outrun various opponents makes him very dangerous, and the Essendon game (first quarter in particular) showed his ability to not only kick goals but set up the play from the chf line.
I'm going to lay out my support from the outset of 2007, as i've done every other year so i'm not labelled a bandwagoner. I'm interested in where you see him, in the side, list and development.
