you’ve got to rest the kids but you’ve also just got to get games into them

I won a Norm Smith in my sleep once

You’ve got to get games into them but you’ve also got to develop them through the VFL

While also resting them

 

[Skipper_]

Best game of his career so far IMO.

Every time he gets involved in a chain we look dangerous.

 

[MiguelM]

Yep, loved his game.

 

[ghostdog]

Starting to look likely through the middle too. Love his burst of speed through there.

 

[cobra land]

Was the one positive for the night, shows he can also play in the midfield and has some dash to his game.

 

[eDPS]

Tonight showed why he was rated so highly, he has traits that could make him an elite player in the competition.

 

[naraku]

Excellent game.
His best so far.

Cleanliness is next to godliness

 

[dank420_]

Also his tank has seemingly increased throughout the season. That’s pretty impressive for a first year player.

 

[JayJ20]

He's getting better and better as the year progresses.

Someone noted that in the past, our young players would be spent by this time. But his last month in particular showed his elite potential.

 

[jannissary]

still think we should drop him because he's not getting 4-5 goals per game smh

had a drunk 20 something bombers supporter sitting behind me all yesterday going on about how shit he is

 

[jannissary]

i'll gladly poke fun at the midwits who think we should drop him (lol) but the fact of the matter is that he's been, in the latter half of the season, one of our best contributors going inside 50 and on occasion hitting the scoreboard well.

 

[bommer16]

He had some quiet games but that’s not on him as the ball delivery to him was either too slow or quickly intercepted by the opposition.

I absolutely rate him and like to see him in the middle more and also kicking goals. I want it all!

Well done Kako

 

[ant555]

Pretty disappointed that he has not kicked 50 goals.

 

[Zach Package]

Sprinting to the finish line

 

[bacon buster]

Best game he’s played. Great signs.

 

[Jobe Watson]

Really growing in confidence now. Hopefully in time he can become a Rankine/Bolton-type small forward who can impact in midfield when required while mostly playing forward.

 

[84859300]

Tonight showed why he was rated so highly, he has traits that could make him an elite player in the competition.

He's improving below his knees, but not near an elite class just yet.

Has no left foot, which nearly found him out a few times for his CBAs.

Should nopt be jumping for marks in the F50, with his ability once the ball hits the ground.

Happy to watch him develop over the off season.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

Plays every game, and gets better the longer it goes. Impressive.

Good summation of where he’s at. Goes at the ball flat out and doesn’t quite pick up enough ground balls, but that should improve with experience. Lots to work with. It’s hard to get front and centre in such a disorganised forward line. If the forward line was better organised he wouldn’t have to fly for as many marks. I’m also looking forward to watching his development.

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

The fact that he hasn't dropped off is amazing.

Really good signs.

 

[Doss]

Hasn’t merely not dropped off, he’s actually got better.
