    But on topic, most marks on debut in our club's history with Brad Hardie & Chris Grant. That's some club.
    Impressive stat. They both won Brownlows so he is in good company.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        Lewis is so cool and calm, didn't panic and took most marks that came his way. Great to see a tall debut at 18 years old and play so well. I was very impressed.

          Loved that he took them on a bit too. Didn't always work, but that's ok.

          Not many debutantes have a highlight reel hanger for their wall.

            Enjoyed his first game, plenty to work with.
            Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

                  What I loved is how he didn't rush his possessions, making sure he chose the right option and hitting his target. Also loved how he frees his arms to get a handball away although he's going to get pinged occasionally with that light frame.
                  I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

                    I've looked up two different football apps and both say 7 marks . I have learnt never trust the commentators, they make things up so do we have confirmation it's 9 marks ?

                        As an aside, Young's AFL Fantasy Points Score (73) is higher than Fletcher Roberts highest ever score (64).

                          Excellent debut. Really assured young lad and we havent had a key position player with hands that sticky in a while.

                            Backed himself excellently today , you would think he would have punched all day and still been a great game.
                            The kid has balls ! He summed up the Carlton forward line and his player and worked out he could back himself to beat him in the air one on one.

                              I like him, I like him a lot!

                              A tall with great hands at the bulldogs , who knew?

                              Great debut Lewis, well done.

                                That was seriously impressive. Loved hs attitude too. When he fills out a bit, looks like a very, very good player.
