Player Watch #21: Noah Balta

[THE_GUN]

Goodes was a champ even if he did sh.t me a little in his last couple of years.
Kouta a state champ hurdelrr as a kid and was the best athlete in the comp for a couple of years.
But Noah just looks heaps more explosive and heavier than both of em.
If he gets his confidence up it’s gonna be awesome.
I’d love to see him stiff arm Blicavs, that’d be sweet.

I would rather him crunch Cripps 1st round

197cm is his true height. Same as Richo

I would like to see Balta have a crack.

I am a little wary of putting Lynch in the ruck initially and I like Lynch in a wing/up the ground role.

I have a lot of time for Balta working in tandem with JR and the smalls, helping Nank out in the ruck and he can also go wing and assist in the backline.

Really like what Balta brings to the table and the aerial contest ability really was telling in the first game and one of our weaknesses can be a strength with Balta contributing!!

196?

 

[Ancient Tiger]

196?

197cm according to his profile on the internet.

I know this means nothing in terms of Richmond Match committee but....

 

[Coach_Required]

They are stupid if they dont give this bloke some senior games, the quicker they blood some games into him the quicker it will add to our strengths.

Just checked his profile summary on the RFC home page. This lists him at 194 cm in height. Not remarkable in itself except that Tom J Lynch is listed as 193 cm. Given that he is officially 1 cm taller than Lynch, he'd have to be a walk up start for Thursday night.

According to the RFC website, will only play if Lynch doesn't and Hardwick is "reluctant" to play them both alongside Jack. Disappointing.

I’m torn. Obviously I want Lynch to play but I also really want to see Balta get a crack.

 

[Cdog71]

Get rid of Lynch, he’s done nuthin

 

[biaseddustyfan]

Balta is in for griggs not Tim lunch

Met the guy at a recent RFC function. At least he puts his money where his mouth is. He is a Jack's club coterie member. Only 17 members are part of that club and you must be invited to join. All for the paltry sum of $22k......

Plot twist. CaptchaProofBot is FOF.

Did the same and noticed Balta is listed at 100kg that’s some serious size for a 19 year old. Rancey playing at around 95 kg and he’s a unit

 

[Hot tigers]

In that RFC article that keeps getting referred to, I cant see anywhere where Dimma has said that he reluctant to play both Lynch and Balta, that is coming from the Journo..
