AFL Player # 2: Sam Draper

[Dave]

Contract Status: Out of contract 2025
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 20, TheUnicorn

 

[HirdyLannister]

Did multiple forward hitouts in advantage of our mids, saw shiel burst onto many of them.

 

[Maddogm]

He's not a technician like Ryder or Bellcho but he's pretty great

I love that he uses his strengths

 

[Dave]

I love that he relishes the physical contest and is happy to smash campaigners. Been a long time since we've had a ruckman that other sides fear.

The only negative out of an otherwise great game.

Kill the ball on the line big fella. Rise up and punch it through. Got outmarked a couple of times on the line.

Reckon the intimate partner exemption got a workout last night, dude looks like he *s like a freight train.

 

[donlav99]

Needs to work on the defensive elements of his game. Was taken down back a few times and looked vulnerable in the air. Love every other part of his game.

 

[rumply]

hahaha

 

[BrunoV]

Also, he seems to have tightened that kicking action back up. It's never going to be pretty but as long as he can get the ball to its intended destination nothing else really matters.

What's up with the two behind him? Hind looks angry at something

It was after the siren and Drapes belted the ball.

What's up with the two behind him? Hind looks angry at something

that kick was after the siren, kicking a ball mid air. Hind pumped for the win, BSD doing his best Taylor impression.
Hope that massive hamstring recovers ok, there's some quality Gold Coast ruckmen this weekend....oh yeh, that's right, they has none. Free hot this weekend Sam!

Less tackles than English. Delist.

A little disappointed the title of this thread isn't "Gave an English lesson"

Them clearances. And he can run like a midfielder.

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Just on his efforts in defence, yes he can and I’m sure will improve but English for all his ruck frailties is a decent forward

Can someone clever put a Miyagi Dojo Daniel san headband on him, please? Thanks in advance

 

[Schnitzengruben]

 

[Donakebab]

He went completely mental during the team song. Put Boxall to shame after Arnie's gold.

 

[Jade]

The loosest of units.

 

[cAsEy_18]

He needs to do this sort of stuff if we're going to have a small-ish sized midfield overall.
Good to see.

Clark Keating played a handful of games each year (2001-2003), and they are finals. His impact was pretty epic.
