Deserves a shout out I feel. Great game for us on Saturday night. I really liked his follow up work once the ball hit the deck.

Yep... showed plenty of ticker especially considering that horror first few minutes.
Must be pinching himself to have been picked up virtually from the scrap heap and landing here with such a promising, exciting group.

 

[JZ_Skitzo]

Usually with ruckman, you prefer they stick to hand balling. But this dudes field kicking looked pretty good. Really stood out to me.

 

[Swansujelly]

Weren’t we into Hickory before he signed with Wc?

I was surprised immensely by his field kicking, not a liability at all, had a few well placed bullets as well.

 

[Citrus22]

Wouldn't be an overstatement to say he helped our clearance work immensely, moved around the ground and pushed into defence well. Also got a good leg!

 

[Blacky]

Was wrong about him. Been a good addition

 

[Punts]

Same , he has shut me up early.

 

[DeadlyAkkuret]

Where did this guy come from? I was never one to stick the boot in, even in the early practice games, but I just thought he’d be a solid contributor. He’s been way more than that. He’s actually pivotal.

A more than useful addition to the team.

 

[Ticky009]

I feel like they've had a chat to him and said the role is yours to lose. It's what we've done the past and I feel like he's just been given an opportunity and he's taken and run with it. Popping up to add to the scoreboard frosting on the cake.

Kudos big fella. Enjoy your games with the Bloods, we're more than happy to have you here.

 

[Nool Carpenna]

Bulldog supporting mate that went with me to the game reckoned he was was in the discussion for BOG... quite incredulous when I gave him a rundown on his background.
As a footy fan you can only ask that the players give their all... to see them enjoying their footy is the icing... Tom ticks both those boxes

 

[scaryness]

His best was always really good, he was just always inconsistent and had some 'dumb ruckman' moments.

Surpassed Naismith easily.

 

[Blacky]

Smashed Nank

what a trade

 

[Punts]

This guy is shiting on me big time

Mills too. 31 disposals and 8 clearances today, more than anyone else on the ground.

Didn’t think he impacted the game too much from the eye test.

Was fine but also did some bad things

Thought he was clear best on in round 1 and happy to see him back it up and show that he's a capable ball winner. If anything it allows Heeney and Parker to spend more time pushing forward.

has kicked 4 goals in 3 games to start 2021, which is equal to or more than his goal tally for any year in his career besides 2015 (7 goals) and 2019 (9 goals).

He was 100% bog in round 1

Was poor last week and decent this week.

 

[Blacky]

I think it’s been good as it’s improved the mids and allowed Dawson to control the ball on the rebound

 

[SwansProudly]

Loved Tom's in the middle of pack is able to get the ball and handball out => Warner goal
Just part of the team effort to keep ball I50

 

[Ticky009]

Another two goals, some assists and more importantly smart positional play all around the ground. Turning into a very important player for us.

Love Tom... but that kick from Warner is extraordinary!

 

[GoTheSwannies]

His performances make the trading of aliir more than palatable. Masterstroke, especially considering it meant we could retain picks to draft Logan, and still have currency to match for Campbell and gulden.

Pure brilliance.

Open wide may be more shitting to come
