[Dave]

Contract Status: Out of contract 2025
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 20, TheUnicorn

 

[RearNaked]

Imagine if he had above average kicking

Imagine if he had above average kicking

Even average would be nice

 

[Scottroo]

Sorry to intrude. Sam is a monster ruckman who played his first game of serious footy this year at the reynella footy club, didn't take long for the scouts at south to spot him and the rest is history. Reckon you've got a ripper here but be patient

 

[YEMOC NAYR]

People complained that when we got the #1 pick after our players got banend that it was a farce we were allowed access to McGrath and Co.

They didn't realise that our pick #1 in the rookie draft was going to be even better.

 

[Old Campaigner]

I wonder if the highlights package he made of himself and put on youtube is still up there

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

I wonder if the highlights package he made of himself and put on youtube is still up there

Now I like him even more.

 

[VelvetSledge]

Played the long game here but definitely paying off

 

[maskmcgee]

Are we sure he's not actually Jesus in disguise? Looks a bit like him too.

 

[boncer34]

Another ripper.

 

[Megabattimus]

Thought he did pretty well in his first duel with Grundy.

Genuinely getting better every week, and it’s not a gradual learning curve

You can see him learning and adapting new facets to his game in every quarter

 

[WindyHillWarrior]

he's a rare breed.

not many are truly ambidextrous in ruck contests like he is. not many can rove and sprint like he does. not many can run and block like he does.

throw in a cup of crazy and he may just rip this comp apart.

Those soccer kicks to keep forward momentum going in the heat of the contest are starting to become a bit of a thing...

if ever there was an afl player built to goal keep in the IR series it would be him.

 

[Nuts4Bolts]

Captaincy material.

 

[naraku]

Love this kid.

 

[11kgm]

Tried hard but lacks some polish and class

 

[MarkJohnson#1]

Wow what a performance, 48 hit outs! He could well take the competition by storm next season. Another that will benefit massively from a full pre season.

 

[TheFrenchCut]

Protect this man at all costs.

 

[TheGrizz]

Tired late, but easily in our 3 best players today with Parish and Ridley.

Love this kid

Yeah, he was average in the second half.

We all need to be doing everything from praying to every other pagan ritual to make sure he can get through the next pre-season unscathed and played 22 games next year.

It will be so much fun watching him smash opponents for 4 quarters.

Again today for a resulting goal!

Better get a bunch of sacrificial goats ready

Enjoyed his game today. His upside is huge and I'd comfortably argue he is the best ruckman we've had since peak Ryder. Going to be fun to watch next year.

And everyone should be sleeping with a half empty pot of water under the bed.
