    Super impressed with his intensity in contests. Yes I love this kid!

      He already seems a good mark, Imagine when he does a couple more pre seasons and his body hardens, he will be a very very good mark in our forward line.

            What a great debut season. Now we know Dalrymple got it right to get him as our no.1 draft pick. It's in his genes, he is a competitive beast. Once that solid frame matures, we'll have a Sunshine Harvester.

              How impressive has the kid been in the second half of the season?

              He has grown immensely from round 1, it's quite staggering.

              Most pleasing was his ball use and finishing on Thursday Night in a massive final. Obviously it's one area of weakness - perhaps his only - but he was superb.

                I wonder if his litter brother will be selected by Sydney this time (draft year 2018).

                  Love this kid. Added to his ability on field he is the nicest, most unassuming kid you'd ever meet. Quickly becoming my fav and I think he'll be an megastar.

                    He's been immense.

                    Every time he's near the ball he impacts the contest. He's such a good size, can mark overhead and hits the scoreboard. Thought he was a very important contributor on Thursday night.

                      Whilst we rated him as a player, I remember Dal saying that where he really rated off the charts was regarding his character. Will be in the leadership group sooner rather than later. Absolute ripper.

                        Has a touch of the Luke Hodges about him I reckon.
                        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                          Been excellent so far this season glad we ended up with him although he might have a Rising Star Medal around his neck if Sydney had of taken him.

                            He would have been AA if he'd played for Sydney.

                              Been hugely impressed with this kid in the second half of the year. Needs to improve his kicking quite a bit and his composure needs improving as well but his contested work is off the charts for a kid. His one on one work & taps to advantage are exceptional and the kid is as tough as they come.

                                The play where Darling **** himself was great for 2 reasons. One obviously being that Dunks scared the bejeezus out of him, the other was Dunk's clever little tap under pressure to JJ which released him. Was something you'd expect from a gun 200 gamer.
