      Can't wait til he starts next week.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        He actually turned the game when he came on.

        We were fumbly and lacking purpose. When he came in, he was the cleanest player on the ground and moved the ball with purpose via foot or hand. Very impressive stuff.

          What a great debut. He will be a crowd favourite for sure. Super impressive!

            Couldn't agree more. From the moment he started in the second half our purpose and intensity lifted in large part from his workrate and his unselfishness to bring others into the play.

              Yep. Makes me wonder what sort of game it could have been if he'd been on from the start. A lot of our hard work in the first quarter came in stuck because we had one to few quality ball users involved in chains of short possessions trying to work a player free. We always seemed just a bit slow to get it into the spread.

                we have a lot of mosquito-fleeters on our list. Dahlhaus is the clear front-runner at present. I like Hrovat and Honeychurch, but have some doubts about the latter..

                However, from the very first time I saw him in the pre-season, I've thought Daniel will make the grade at worst, if not be a star. I rate him that highly. Had he not been injured in March, I honestly think he would've played in round 1. I think we saw the debut of a very special WBFC player tonight.

                  I love the way he can make time and space with the ball. Then he finds the right options.

                    He has learnt to turn his height to advantage, just like Libba Snr.

                      What a debut from Caleb. Thought he was great. He may be a short player but gee he moves so well and was involved in quite a lot. Made our club very proud last night.

                            Looks like Caleb was a favourite at South Adelaide as well....

                              Great game on debut, love his work. Heard audio of Terry Wheeler presenting his jumper. Great speech, Wheels still has the passion for the club. Sounds a bit like he's calling him "Callum" though

                                Daniel was playing on Buckley at one stage, and I said to my mate "Its Frodo vs Gimli"
