[TennisPlayerAndy]

Does some really good shit.

 

[ShiNoBi]

2 tough goals well done.

He is going to play rest of the year.

Does some really good shit.

shit yeah

 

[ozzyoslo]

This one I am excited about......could be one of our best finds ever. Brown is already a lock in that category.

Pretty much post of the thread

I think when he kicked 3 or 4 against the Hawks in preseason we thought he'd be pretty good.

For a guy with no tank, he does some special things.

Hitting that ball off of the back of the square from the center bounce was awesome. If he can bring that to the team once or twice a game he will be a weapon.

 

[roojor]

Probably only sixty percent fit for afl at this stage watch out when he is fully fit I think we have a X factor player in the making

 

[GarnerSmash]

Gives zero ****s.

Zero.

 

[Twinkletoes]

Gives zero ****s.

Zero.

Love the way he and Garns go about it.

 

[Kanga Glory]

Love the way he and Garns go about it.

now thats a scary proposition for future years for norths forward pressure.
there may be a few opposition players wearing hawks home shorts after dealing with them.

 

[Aberration]

Couple of special goals yesterday.

The first showed that he has got serious power. He had to control the bobbling ball above his head, which would have put him off balance. But then to hit the ground, pivot, explode through into space (all while shrugging a tackle) and finish from 40m while placing his kick underneath a lunging Mcevoy... <insert randy marsh.jpg>

The second was pretty nice too. Read the ball nicely off the front and square, tapped it on to get away from Gunston, picked it up at full pelt but maintained his balance and finished on the non-preferred left foot.

Also hit up at the ball nicely on occasion and was an avenue for us to move the ball forward through the HFF area.

We have got a gem here

[Hearts to hearts]

And because of the Z, will get noticed more widely than we are used to.

 

[Flawed Genius]

The first goal is more impressive because he got soundly beaten in a one on one contest for strength not a few minutes before. Got very easily pushed under the ball and outmarked.

Few contests later with the opportunity to make amends, he does, in a big way. Shoves his opponent out of the way and blind turns into traffic, then somehow still has the nous to kick the goal.

Some really good signs physically, but I think the desire to win and compete is also a huge positive when it comes to Cam.

Yes exactly!! it was like @£$€ !! As if he said to himself never again.

 

[king rising]

As well as all the other pro's listed above,i like the way he shows passion for the jumper, an underestimated trait.

 

[northbergs]

Our version of the 'Flying Dutchman', without the 'high flying', this guy could be special. Seems to play like he believes he belongs at the level. Has genuine A-grader qualities and there hasn't been any other debutant who has played this year that has convinced me they could be A-grade, except for maybe EVW.

[Joshen]

His stiff arm and delivery inside 50 against Essendon is still my favourite Zurhaar moment but that first goal was pretty impressive.

Wouldn't be surprised if he ended up as our best small/medium forward (excluding Garner).

 

[tales129]

Love the way he and Garns go about it.

Linked up by hands in garners two goals as well! Could see some bromance blossom!!

 

[shinboner magic]

Love the way he and Garns go about it.

With those two up there plus sugar there'd be defenders looking over their shoulders.

Love guys that hit the contest at full pace and leave it all out there

 

[The Nostradamus]

We've got some very dangerous small forwards for the next decade

Garns, Turner, Zurhaar and Jy very talented combo
