[Beerfish]

Contract Status: Unrestricted Free Agent 2029
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 3, Dave

 

[Bombermania]

Has the build of a stick insect but I like how he plays, for a first gamer he looked comfortable out there.

 

[Jade]

* me sideways, this kid can play.

 

[Stopher]

The Wellman shouts are good ones. Mr Composure.

 

[yodellinhank]

Great to have him on board

 

[BrunoV]

Anyone able to put the Ablett sidestep into a GIF?

God that was great.

Needs the caption 'get out of here old man'.

 

[Dave]

**** me sideways, this kid can play.

I know.

Doesn’t seem to have much competition for the RS nom so far this week. They rarely give it to a first gamer but hopefully that’s not the case this week.

True, but first gamers rarely stand out that much

The fact that it was such a comprehensive victory may help as well.

Unless something exotic happens it'll be out of him, Florent and Hunter Clark.

I didn't see Floren't game but I daresay Ridley was better

[bombreys]

If memory serves me correct we pursued Michael Johnson a few years back?

I think you’re right.

I reckon we’ve found a 10 year player here.

 

[Seagrave_Holmes]

Can we not bulk him up too much and ruin him like we did to Pears? I don't mind that he has a wiry build as long as he keeps his speed.

 

[TheFrenchCut]

The underrated part is how he managed to turn Gary into Nathan.

You know there will. The only reason we don't here those calls regarding Gleeson is because he is injured.

Runs like a gazelle eat my dust Gaz

Gazelle you say?

Gaz is finished unfortantley.

This.

Let him fill out over time, which he will.

Importantly he’s already strong through his legs (see the change of direction on that sidestep and the balance/acceleration) so expect he’ll already be able to hold his ground in contest well enough. Looks like a guy who doesn’t lose his feet.

 

[Vander18]

A think of beauty - that’s Gary ******* Ablett left in his wake, eating turf.

My Boy. Home town. East Burwood. Burvale. Bomber.

 

[eDPS]

The only other player that could pip him for a nomination this week is Witherden who may get it purley for his consistency.

 

[CBombers17]

Gaz is finished unfortantley.

Didn’t look great. Who slammed him on his shoulder in a tackle? Looked very ginger after that.

 

[CBombers17]

Already a better player than his uncle Todd.
