    Re: Welcome to the WBFC - Caleb Daniel

    Caleb got a talking up on On The Couch tonight. Not bad for 60 minutes of footy in his first game.

      I think Lamb apologised as well, and I'm sure libba went on to win the Brownlow.

        He did win the Brownlow. Not a bad effort to go from asking for a transfer to winning the medal inside the same season. Thank God tgat Terry Wheeler and Doug Hawkins asked him to give it one more go with us and picked him for the practice match that week. He was BOG that day and never looked back.
        They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

          Terry's speech was very moving. Yes, I suppose 35 is not a revered number, but I would be very proud to have Terry Wheeler's former number on my jumper. Cannot wait for Caleb to develop. I used to wear a helmet as well when I played footy, so he's a fav of mine.

              I was wondering if the player chooses a lower number in years to come do they do it all again?

                  Hope he gets a full game tonight. His half last week was best ive seen on debut. In terms of his efforts to turn a close game into a win. He just runs everywhere. Great link player. Just what we need.

                    Currently 501-1 to win the end of year Rising Star award on Sportsbet (Toby is 101-1). Might be worth a $10 investment given he has 9 rounds to go to prove himself better than the others nominated so far this year....

                      Had my doubts but as always happy to eat my words. He has done everything right and just a shame he missed 6 weeks due to injury. I've told a few people at work how good he is and asked if they watched the Daniel show on Saturday night all were impressed expect for one Norf supporter who said he'll play as long as the other midget from Ballarat (Hooper) I asked to put a $20 on that which he agreed.

                        Safe bet. Hooper never had the footy awareness that CD has. North supporters i know have always hated the dogs. Dunno why. Maybe cross town rivalry.

                          His height is a point of difference. He is quicker to bend down and pick the ball up and change direction. Quicker to get the ball on his boot and more likely to draw a high tackle. Which opposition teams will have a matchup for him?

                          I'm hanging out for the sub announcement, it's between Prudden, Hunter and Daniel. I'd love to see him get a full game
                          If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
