Hope he plays well (obviously, I hope they all play well). I haven't seen a lot of him. What type of player is he? Looks like a stronger version of Josh Hill.
Me also. Very excited to walk in the door and read this!
Hopefully he can have an impact and get a grasp of the level required. Big stage, hopefully he can showcase some magic.
I think it is exciting when any new player debuts, especially those that I have heard a lot about.
Just a side query, does anyone think Okeefe will debut anytime soon? He was hotly tipped to get a run, was in the emergencies and then nothing eventuated.

Going by the reports from the Willi watchers his form has quietened off a little. I suspect he'll get a run at some stage, but with the team playing well the last few weeks, and our strength of similar players, he has probably not got a run where perhaps at a lesser club he may have.

I've only seen him in action live once at the start of this year, but based on what I know from others who have seen him countless times, he's a quick, powerful guy. He'll play half back and forward pocket. His skills and decision making are ok, but he does tend to drift out of games. Wonder what role he'll get tonight?
He has a few similarities to Hill, such as loving a big, high flying mark. But not sure how many other similarities there are. Hill is more an endurance runner, Stack a burst/power athlete. Hill is more suited to outside roles, and Brennan can probably play inside/win the loose ball a bit better. I guess we'll know more in a couple of hours.
Hasn't been on much but pretty courageous according to ABC radio.
Yep just looked to be a bit overawed by the big difference in pace between VFL and AFL, but his willingness to put his body in was pleasing.
A very courageous effort on the defensive side of the centre square in the 3rd quarter, jumping back into a pack and towelling up Deledio legally in the process.
Not sure if he'll keep his place next week but hopefully he can use the experience and go back to the VFL and retain the desire for another dip.
Guess it will depend on whether we want to give Murph til after the mid-season break as to whether Stack will play in Darwin.
I was happy enough. I think he will learn from the increase in speed and pressure. Very courageous and did some nice things. Nothing too major, but showed some nice things. Needs games and work out a position. He played back and was courageous, but up forward i thought he looked dangerous.

Didn't get a heap of game time and didn't find a lot of the pill but it wasn't a terrible debut, was prepared to body and attack the ball and could potentially play that small forward pocket, pressure player now that Harbrow is impressing in the backline.
Late in the third quarter I thought he pulled up short and grabbed the back off his leg. Looked a bit limp coming off. MMM said he hurt a rib but when the song was being sung in the room after the game he still look to favour one leg. Could be a hammy any one else notice?
