Player Watch Pick #18 (2016) - Sam Powell-Pepper

[Smithy7]

Still the defining image for me was when he was getting dragged along the ground by his jumper and had a complete zero fckx given look on his face.

Arms folded, enjoying the ride, and then getting a free kick ... remember it well..

Zero *s given. Love it.

 

[Doctor Feel]

He looked like a mexican on a siesta with that mo.

 

[manureid]

I reckon he could have dragged him out of the stadium and he would have held his zero fcks position the whole way.

 

[Seanybruz]

Zero ****s given. Love it.

I love the strut just after he's back up too, he knows he's going to have a fair gif montage of big hits, long bomb goals & general hard nut pest antics as he becomes a cult figure at the club.

Would like to see him line up on Cripps at the stoppages this week and spend 120 minutes making his life hell. Definitely swaps for a taller defender if Cripps pushes forward though.

Yep, up against Cripps should be a ripper. Cripps is AA form and would be clear brownlow favourite if Carlton could win a game.

My only concern for SPP is that his body won't hold up to see 30. Already tape on both shoulders.

how many blokes would be 9-1 or better this year?

Darling is 10-1. I doubt there would be too many others (if any).

Our captain has massively taken SPP under his wing and into his family. On instagram they are spending some time in Torquay together now. #itsthelittlethings

Great to hear their relationship has extended that far. Memories of when Dusty Martin first came on the scene - immense talent but lacking (family type) direction. SPP has the talent, hopefully the motivation and discipline.

Update - we're now 10-1 with SPP in the team this year.

If the Hawthorn game had finished 7 minutes earlier we'd be 11-0 with SPP.

Interview on fox footy with SPP and boaky coming up. Looks like it will be an interesting one.

Poor Elspeth would have loved to get this interview. Real shame that.
This is why I absolutely love Boak.
The support and example he has given to young SPP.
Often see their domestic video clips on instagram. Boak is making a man of SPP and has brought him into the Boak family too.

 

[PAFC_1870]

Boak is such a great person

 

[Janey]

People can have their criticisms of Trav's on-field performance, but it's these situations when we see how important his off-field leadership is. And kudos to SPP having the balls to own up to his mistakes on national TV.

Personally im a bit concerned about SPP.
He seems to involved in pushing and shoving opposition players around instead of winning and gaining ground for the side.
He looks a much better player when he focuses on positive football.
I wonder if the coaches are selling him down the tube???

Of course they are.

It's part of the ruining process that they seem to apply to all of our players

Thought he was our one mid on Sunday that looked like he was giving 110%. The pushing and the shoving of opposition players adds to SPP's game, it doesn't detract from it.

Please.
