He can astound you both ways, brilliant one minute, out on the full the next.

Agree. Manages to have a few mares by foot most weeks. Probably stops him from being rated elite A grade. Anyway love the work ethic and the fact he runs all day.

 

[Howard Moon]

To anyone who was unlucky enough to see that post match interview with his brother, horrible awkward tv, and showed Hamish up as someone who knows nothing about football

 

[FlyingV]

He’s so important for us. He hit the ground running at EFC, and has overcome his injury hiccups really well. Love him.

On the plus side though, red and black suits his brother very nicely!

 

[Ambrosia]

Panic merchant in traffic but overall do like his effort

 

[Yoda_]

Gives real leadership vibes this bloke. That contested mark in D50 was inspirational to say the least

Just works and works and works

 

[bommer16]

Love him

 

[MiguelM]

That tackle in the goalsquare, game saving.

 

[Beerfish]

Solid game I thought?

 

[andleanback]

Solid game I thought?

-1.3 rated game, from a guy who had 27 disposals and I thought was okay, is actually impressive to do. Him and caddy the worst rated players on the ground (who played full games)

 

[Beerfish]

-1.7 rated game, from a guy who had 27 disposals and I thought was okay, is actually impressive to do. Him and caddy the worst rated players on the ground (who played full games)

Damn. That's a shame.

 

[Yoda_]

59% DE hurts but I think he is doing a relatively fine job for us on the wing

 

[Happyskeret]

This is all I’m going to say about this man until I say more but he is a lot better than steak knives! I hope we give him a lot more than he has given us.

 

[Zach Package]

Since trading him in we have now drafted an Archie and two Archers.

Prophetic

 

[VelvetSledge]

Just quietly having a very good season.

100 games tomorrow, congrats Xav!

 

[Old Campaigner]

What an absolute psycho lol

I'd need a couple of green whistles minimum if that happened to my shoulder

 

[naraku]

We've missed guys like Xav, I think.

Dislocates shoulder. Pops it back in. All good.

****ing fantastic.

 

[andleanback]

Just a really solid player that we can rely on week after week. Will finish high in the bnf this year if he stays fit.

 

[ydc55]

Was very good.
Our only natural wingman.

 

[ghostdog]

Duurs was in the bests tonight for mine. Outstanding up and back all night, and so courageous for a skinny bloke. I seriously fear for his safety sometimes, but I feel like he plays for the jumper and he really only just arrived. Plays with more heart than some who've been with us longer.

 

[Unfazed]

Need to do more Xavier and Caldwell type trades. Both are passionate competitors

 

[bennyg12]

Love this fella

 

[gdaytiger2001]

Absolutely tried his guts out. Not afraid to put his head over the footy. Really like this young bloke

 

[cobra land]

I reckon he'd be pretty sore today, I hope this isn't the start of his shoulder popping in and out which can be the case.

Also, love the fact that all his siblings come to most of our matches, would love all the boys playing together at Essendon!!
