I'm never going to give you another like until you get rid of that ugly View attachment 2267483

But that was the moment Sicily missed a shot for goal that could have won them their semi-final. Sicily went insane in that moment. It was very funny

 

[DapperDon]

Love him.

If you were to draw what you thought a kid called Archie recruited from Hampton/Sandy looked like, I don’t think he’d be the picture though and I for one am all for that

Hampton born and bred here, and every young campaigner has the Simpsons meme haircut these days.

Yeah but I went to school bayside in the early 2000s so what I experienced then is 100% how it is in my brain. Someone called Archie Roberts has 2 middle names and a trust fund.

Sounds like you're not far behind me in schooling, I was late 90's

Was all surf or blink 182 haircuts back then

Ok I accept your apology and have given your post a "like" but I still hate it.

More like him please Rosa.

How on Earth did we steal this kid at #54 in the draft?

He’s so competitive, so hard at it, and so professional.

Love him.

Doesn’t panic either. Elite skills. Amazing pick up.

Wreckon we got a couple of good late ones in 2024. Zak Johnson and Archer Day - Wicks look great

his kicking doesn't exactly scream elite to me.

for pick 54, obviously players will have some rough spots, so whatever, we can live with the kicking, but I'm surprised not to see more commentary around the kicking

 

[Jack Richards]

Bloke is tenacious. 6 tackles and 28 disposals. If he doesn't get the Rising Star nod, I'll flip

Went at 85% tonight.

has this bloke been forgotten about as a rising star nomination? huge tonight against some pretty reasonable fleet of foot smalls

It’s pretty bloody good

 

[andleanback]

He’s a goer, with a great left foot

He plays for Essendon that's why he hasn't got a nom.

 

[naraku]

You can't praise this kid enough. He is so bloody good.

 

[Happyskeret]

I trust my trust fund with this guy. THATS HOW MUCH I TRUST HIM.

 

[gdaytiger2001]

Effectively got him after the Richmond trade using one of the D'ambrosi picks. Seems like that trade might pay dividends after all...............

 

[fairbump_playon]

He will be a 250 game club great

Zach Merrett is the comparison.

Absolute class, super balance, competitor, hard enough and awesome poise for so early career.
