AFL Player 9: Sullivan Robey - Will debut this weekend at Gather Round! - 9/4

[ghostdog]

Odd that he debuts after a very quiet VFL game as opposed to the week before when he dominated.

Having said that...

Amazing what a fire can do I guess.

Scott commenting on his selection said it’s after a month of VFL! Two games

He played in the Cats game on managed minutes.
Edit: he also played in the last vfl praccy match on managed match

Not full minutes but he has played 4 VFL games. It does seem quick, but would guess he’ll be low game time and only playing up forward

 

[Call Me Cake]

One small step for a man, one giant leap for Bomberkind

 

[EnolaGay]

Enjoy the moment Sully - good luck young fella.

I wouldn't consider a month in the two's rushed.

1 good performance warranting selection, then a quiet week last week and he’s in. Feels rushed, remember he didn’t have a preseason. No harm with letting him build, then unless him around may.
I think he’ll play well though

 

[NAB777]

Dude's on a hiding to nothing, today.

 

[Maxabillions]

Undefeated

 

[HirdyLannister]

Good size on the kid

 

[Vindicater]

Was good. Clearly needs to build the tank but he worked hard to make it to contests.

 

[ghostdog]

How good is it that we have a player who is just as capable in the middle as he is forward of the ball. Small sample size, I know, and I don't think he went into the middle today; but that moment where he was suddenly leading up at the footy inside 50 was gold. So looking forward to seeing this guy develop over the next few years. He's going to be a massive unit.

 

[thepokey]

Won the game off his own aura today!

 

[Jobe Watson]

Competed well. All you can ask for. He'll find his feet soon enough.

 

[Happyskeret]

Won the game off his own aura today!

That combined with the aura of the red shorts.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

Good size on the kid

He's massive!

 

[andleanback]

Will take some time to find his feet, but Geeze doesn’t look out of place and love his want to take the body contact.

 

[Its Manbearpig]

Felt like he had a lot more of it than he actually did.
Could’ve been a lot more but had a bit of an almost day adjusting to the pace.

 

[quotemokc]

Don't think he is quite ready for AFL.

If the VFL team didn't have a bye I don't think he would have debuted but you can see what he will be.

 

[fairbump_playon]

Beast! You can already see the power to stand up under contact and to tackle hard

But moves so smooth and is one touch

 

[Bunk Moreland]

First win in nearly a year

I won’t hear of it being a coincidence

It’s Robey’s world

 

[Old Campaigner]

Impressed by his willingness to stand up and absorb contact, he's a big unit and he knows it

 

[JayJ20]

His kicking inside 50 is great. He kicks to the advantage of our forward. Did it in the VFL and did it again yesterday.

He has penetration in his kick which is a welcome change.

 

[Milanista28]

He's going to be a nightmare 1 on 1, he's already seriously strong.

 

[Nicholas61]

Copped a tackle and I thought he would get done htb like our other mids 10 years his senior typically do but he got it out.
