Tai Abberley is a nice player that i think is a very consistent performer in the reserves - often times outshining his listed mates.

Probably fair to say Uncle Ginnevan's not his nephew's greatest fan

 

[Hollow Knight]

Commentators making me cringe really badly. Just call the game fellas.

 

[McIvor]

Sitting next to Ginnevan's uncle here, who's on the phone to someone giving them a brutally honest appraisal of his nephew's performance do far

I'll probably be proven wrong, but i said on here that i thought he'll be a flash in the pan type player - know he just kicked a goal, but i still maintain that - will be hard displacing Bobby Hill - Kai kind of reminds me of his too, albeit Kai can do the spectacular.

 

[McIvor]

They dont call Lester Froggy based off that leap commentator - cool story tho.

Have liked a few things Brain has done, looks strong and clean with his hands, decent skills.
Lohmann has been good and bad in patches but just stays involved which I like.
White is just so clean with his hands, super agile as well.

 

[The Flying Belgian]

Like what I see from The Shadow.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Brain shows plenty.

 

[Tom14]

Shadeau

 

[McIvor]

Skillz by Sahdeau

 

[Tom14]

Brain shows plenty.

Unclear why no one took him with a late pick in the draft given we weren't able to match a bid in the national draft.

Party time at Brighton Homes Arena.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Floodgates.

Brain looks like a footballer.

Can the commentators stop saying "A Smithy Snag"?

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Lohmann and Ginnevan having an ego-off

Ginnevan was about 3 metres over the mark. Should have been 50.

Great to see some of ressies players playing really well.

Turned on for the lead up to Ginnivan's goal. You could be forgiven for thinking Collingwood were about to blow us out of the water given the carry on from the comms team. Here they come........ apparently.

Made me laugh too!

Pretty stacked for young, talented small forwards with Colrman, Lohmann and Brain

I know Arnold got caught which led to that goal, but jeeze for a KPD he has some dash. Good intercept mark but clearly loves to attack. A rare combination. Firmly believe injuries and fitness in general were the reason he wasn't picked ahead of Joyce but reckon he'll be on a list before long.

Not watching but following along on the thread, does Brain look good enough that he might be considered for a game later in the year if he continues?

I just want to see an AFL player named Shadeau Brain, it’s too good

Here they come. COLLINGWOOD!! Coast to coast! This is fantastic!

Wouldn't think so this year but agree, I'd love to see him get a game in the future purely because of his name.

Gut feel: probably not, but another season of development and who knows
