Seriously,how good is this kid going to be.

I saw his very first game for BHH ressies last year and that's exactly how he played then....hard at it,runs all day and chokablock full of skills.I remember Anthony Allan telling him at quarter time that he didn't need to get himself killed to prove how keen he was ! It's just his style...if the footy's there - go and get it..doesn't matter if there's a 6'4",16st mass murderer in the way !!

I just love the kid !

The game ...oh yeah,not bad ...could've won it..a few crucial errors in the last few minutes...also a fantastic effort by a few Brisbane guys too...Keating,Leppitsch and Voss in particular.

Good performances by Tim Hazell,Joel Smith(after a shaky start),Barks (except for that last marking attempt) and surprisingly (for me) from Heebie.

That one day in September is a long way away.....Good practice match form for mine...we're on the way guys.

id have to agree Rico, first time ive seen Clarke in the flesh, and he lived up to all the hype. Hope he doesnt get knocked around to much, might only play 10 or so games this year, he is so small and lightly framed, but he showed plent of class last night, good to see contributions from Hazell as well, always nice to know weve got some promising youngsters coming through, Holland,Croad and Bowyer will be welcome additions. Im starting to get excited. Cheers

Bubba..if you think he's tiny now,you should have seen him last year. I reckon he's actually bulked up !!!!!!

Yep Timmy Clarke was sensational, he has poise, skill and a HUGE heart! I thought he was going to get killed a few times. I think it was Clark Keating who laid a big sheperd on him but he bounced straight up. He's an exciting prospect! http://www.bigfooty.com/ubb/smile.gif

I reckon Tim Clarke is gonna be a great part of our side!!

It was cute to see before the game when they were practicing, Shaun Rehn put his arm aout half way up his side....and tim clarke ran right under it, didnt even need to duck!! It was rather an enlightening moment!!
