Ivan, Oleg and Mabior

..Sounds like a Band from the late 60's...

Rocking with BIG HITS!!!

 

[Stigmata]

Attitude wise I recon he is a good match for Drummond

Also shares a passion for cars with Oleg

 

[A Tiger 4 lyf]

Cholmander

 

[Squibbs]

No one can say our list is vanilla anymore with an Ivan, an Oleg, a Sudanese boy named Mabior and a Rioli and a Yarran. Exciting s**t.

I like this seletion. There seems to be more expected of Ruckman these days than just to be able to tap the ball. They are expected to contribute more around the ground. This kid certainly has the athletism and skill on the ground to match the smaller players. An interesting player to see how he develops.

 

[SpudsLoveChild]

Im not sure if you said this as a joke, but its actually accurate. So excited.

Check my video at the start. He can kick a mile but he's far from silky. Plenty of clangers in there. But give him time and lets see what happens.

I dont really care about how athletic he is and how he jumps etc...all I can see is a pretty f***ing slick left peg..

One of the best kicks in the draft I bet.

Chol vs BigMac should be fun to watch during training

 

[CHIMP MAGNET]

How do you pronounce his name?.... maybe I'll just call him Jessica.

game calling will be very confusing when Jayden Short passes to Chol...

Welcome to the Chol era...

 

[Godspeed]

I like it. I like it a lot .

From your vid, he looks willing and able. Makes the second effort. Snappy reflexes. Good choices in tight. Good judgement of the ball in flight. With a bit of top-level training, that left leg could turn into a guided missile launcher. Welcome Chol.

Did watch it, along with the one on the RFC site and I can see a lot more silk than hack. One of the lace out passes into the forward 50 is magic. Takes a mark on the wing and wheels around straight away.

Yeah, he's got some skills but at the moment he's not the messiah.

 

[NZ_Tiger]

Rarely gets his hands on it maybe?

No one really knows what he might be at AFL level, he played all over the place for Queensland, Ruck, fwd, wing, def. He came to the game early enough that I have some hope he can get the game sense that Majak can't seem to develop.

 

[Danog]

Coukd maybe play a role similar to Blicavs? He needs to up his endurance.

Dont you dare try and take this away from me

If you listen to the highlights real, he seems to have the nick name "Macca"

 

[TigerImposter]

Tall, lanky and athletic.
Is a long-term development prospect.

already ahead of a Hampson
