Welcome to the WBFC - Lukas Webb

[Go_Dogs]

Great opportunity for him.

Looks a composed player with a good leg on him. Would be great if he can cement himself in our side over the course of the year.

[Mofra]

You bet. He looked as good as any of the top 10 draft picks.

Someone mentioned that De Goey (the kid Collingwood took at pick 5) tagged Webb in APS footy.

A few weeks ago I thought he'd be the best of the current crop based on his size, footskills and composure so it's no real surprise he debuts first. A chance to develop in the next couple of years as a genuine HB playmaker who can sometimes rotate through the centre.

He is named in thd starting 18 meaning he will play,.

Yeah only saw the Ins/Outs when I typed that. Thought he was extended bench. Rapt to see him get a game.

[dadsgirl16]

YAY!! Rapt to see "my boy" get a game..hope he goes well

What is APS footy?

Associated Public Schools football. It's the private school football competition

Best of luck to Webby. Here is hoping for a good showing

Robert Shaw who I think teaches & coaches at Brighton Grammar (or at least one of the big private schools) tweeted last night that he thought Webb was the best player he saw in the APS last year.. or something to that tune.

Get your hands on Webbs highlights from the under 18 carnival. I thought he looked like a rolls Royce.

All the best Lucas - no better way to start your AFL career than with a crushing win over the reigning premiers!

[Bulldog4life]

I have only seen Lucas play against Melbourne in the practice match we had. He was very impressive that day. All the best Webby for a long career with the Bullies.

Yep, he was very impressive on that day. Looked round 1 ready.

[Mofra]

Yep, he was very impressive on that day. Looked round 1 ready.

He has certainly picked up the pace of AFL football very quickly.
A natural footballer with excellent footskills? Yes please.

Surprised he's debuting so early in what is a development year for him but he really is the 2014 draftee that excites me most. A genuine HB playmaker who can kick goals. From 2017 we may actually have some semblance of cover for Murph.

[ratsmac]

Yes, this is very exciting indeed. He hasn't even played an actual proper VFL game yet. The coaches must certainly rate him.
Best of luck Lucas.

[Remi Moses]

Clearly rated not to even play a VFL game
