If it’s a standard hammy he should be right for round 1

How many of our players get some sort of injury immediately after signing a contract.

In fairness they normally get the serious injury before we re-sign them

That must give Huss a great chance for round 1.

Kako been having an awesome preseason so far.

hopefully just a speed hump.

too important to risk against Hawks round 1.

will already have an underdone Ridley.

 

[Call Me Cake]

Seems very precautionary, which is a good sign from us. Silver lining is he's had a the bulk of the preseason into him.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

How many of our players get some sort of injury immediately after signing a contract.

But also how many don't get injured just after signing a new contract. Confirmation bias much.

Imagine how everyone would be losing their shit if Sean Murphy was still in charge!

God damn, 6 scoring shots as a second year small forward after a month injured. Kicking was off but could have had a monster game. What a great young player we have on our hands.

 

[FlyingV]

Love him

The best thing about his game was that run he did late in the game to give the ball just outside the 50m then burned off his man and marked the ball.

I couldn't care that he missed the shot, that's the running that needs to be highlighted and shown on repeat as the bare minimum standard.
Splice it into the footage of all the senior players cutups so they know what intensive running looks like.

Did he get any CBAs? I became more interested in BF and stopped paying attention...

Ain't that saying something?

Don’t think so, but shame as he was quite good late last year but a bit harder with Parish back and Roberts getting minutes

Shouldn't be that much harder to flip some magnets when we want some speed on the ball.

2 coaches votes v north.

This kid set the tone today...stood up and said follow me boys.

 

[jannissary]

he's unbelievable

 

[bommer16]

Loved him from that start. He is terrific.

 

[gillon]

You can see the improvement he’s made this year. He’s very close to tidying the finishing up and breaking a game apart.

 

[Megabattimus]

Love him so much.

 

[SpeckieMcVeigh]

One of the more underrated things about Kako is how hard he is to tackle. Not even in the classic "small guy is hard to catch" way, but he legitimately breaks a lot of tackles when hands are on him.

He set the tone in that third quarter and was a big reason we won.

 

[TheFrenchCut]

That was such a ripper game. Makes the world of difference when you have a forward half ground ball player with pace and smarts.

Yeah he's a slippery little ****er
