    He was over keen. He'll come good.

      They already lost McStay , who is a solid player
      So I hope the have a long and Premiershjpless career there
      Their first pick in the draft is looking tasty. Keep it up Brissie.

        He's got a bit of attitude to his game as well, which I think this side lacks sometimes. Doesn't mind some lip, gets into opposition, sticks his head over the footy and will go inside the contest when needed.

          We need a thread to keep track of it.

          Currently pick 7 in the *echo on* SUPER DRAFT!

            Heard someone say he is their new favourite player.

            positions himself well, uses the ball well, etc. Great pick up.

              Melbourne fans were a bit unsure about letting him go.
              Hunter is 28, Baker 24 I'm happy with the result at this stage.
              Kicks goals too!

                Noticed that he positions himself well when the ball is in our forward line. When it?s deep in the pocket he finds space for a safer kick at goal. Usually ignored but it is an option for improvement of the forward line.

                (Only JUH can ignore him, such delightful kicking skills- should get a second job as Naughton?s kicking coach)

                    He definitely seems like a player you'd like (if you don't already). I recall you advocating for the team shifting the kick to handball ratio in the kick direction more often and he certain delivers that.

                      Haha, I thought there was a thread on our Brisbane draft pick too but I can't find it. Must have disappeared into the same Bermuda Triangle the Contract Thread resides in.

                        Yes. He was AA in 2017 when he kicked 65 goals and looked like he could be anything.

                        Outside of that season. He has never kicked more than 46 goals in a season. He is now in his 12th season. He has never kicked more than six goals in a game and has only done that twice. He has actually only ever kicked five goals in a game or more only six times in his career.

                        For context. Tony Locked kicked five goals in a game 145 times. Lance Franklin has done it 74 times.

                        He just ain't that good.

                          Wonder whether Oskar (Bakes) had a point to prove - pretty sure he was in the Brisbane Academy but not selected by them. Only 'Brissy' born boy on our list.

                          Like others have noted, was great to see him actually kick the ball (and kick it well)!
                          There is no sadder sight than a young pessimist.
