Nobody?

Thanks saints !

 

[Seagrave_Holmes]

Very happy to see him don the sash. I wonder if he will play forward next year, it certainly sounds like it wouldn't bother him at all.

 

[Atavistic]

Of all our draftees, he's the guy I'm least worried about making it at AFL level.

 

[Shane Hird]

Saint Francis.

If he was a Saint at Roo's place you can bet they sure as #### would've called him that.

The new Golden Boy.

And he's all ours.

Not yours Sainters..ours.

Lol

I really hope the nickname St Francis gathers some legs.

He is a quality player and I can't see how we could have done any better with our first two picks.

 

[DapperJong]

He has penetration of 55-60m

The tigers used to call Francis Bourke st. Francis, iirc.

It's perfect because it was the Saints pick.

yeah that's the point.

This is the one that I am most excited for. Dominated as a 3rd tall down back and forward, with stints in the midfield. His game against WA up forward was really impressive. Just reminds me a lot of Goddard in many ways. Even took a huge grab.

His tackling is good and seems like a bloke that doesn't give up. Keeps on going.
He's definitely our best pick since Heppell.

Dodoro says Francis reckons he has grown since the combine and is now 193cm.

Do with this information what you will.

 

[Rack Watts]

Dodoro said that Francis has grown to 193cm, that's genuine KPP height!

 

[eth-dog]

As big as the Bont.

 

[DapperJong]

HGH?

Dodoro: "Hey Aaron, we are short on tall forwards, do you want to kick lots of goals like your childhood hero Matthew Lloyd?"
Francis: "yes sir, I will do anything for the club, I bleed red and black".
