I actually don't know what his weaknesses are.

Strong, tough, wins the ball on the inside, fit and wins the ball on the outside, pace, skill and can kick a goal.

Fast becoming my favourite player.

He's everything that you say plus I'd add durable to the mix. To get through last season in the manner he did after a limited preseason was a sensational effort especially given he also finished the season strongly.
If I'm to be as harsh as I can to find an area or two he could improve on it would be kicking more goals and perhaps his kicking on his opposite foot but that will come.
If we work on the assumption that he will continue to improve as he matures then we've landed a gem.

You're not a modern Bulldog if you can ruck.

Sorta his handball technique. Its absolutely brutal but seems to hold up under heat so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Bevo will give him his chance.

He reminds me a bit of Brad Johnson but with a harder edge. Not as good overhead as BJ but he might just be a tad quicker. If we can keep him at the club (and we should do everything we can do do just that), he could be anything.

I have thought this too - even looks like a blonde mulleted version of smiling assassin. Signs are he will be as good as Brad which is amazing. We need to sign him up long term ASAP.

Damn. Guess he'll have to deal with being a traditionally good looking person now.

I reckon he's just pulled it around the other side of his head.

Yep no way the mullet is gone

I think Sampson is just fooling us and still has his locks of superpower...as others have mentioned I think he's just swept it across to the side
