Player Watch #29: Shai Bolton - What an absolute jet!

[THE_GUN]

So big chance to leave now apparently, I thought he was going get a new contract with us , that’s a massive loss if he goes .

Not from what i heard, Did you get some info ? or just media crap

 

[Karp3_dm]

He’s staying

And Edwards used to do the exact same things. I would pull my hair out screaming that this guy made too many mistakes! Then all of a sudden it was like watching someone from the Matrix doing things that you had to watch 3-4 times before you realised how special it was.

Then I realised that it didn't happen all of a sudden. He learned from his mistakes and he became better as a result. Let him keep trying the impossible. Some players should be given that licence. Not many. Maybe 2-3 on any given list but he's one of those guys I reckon.

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

He has “it”

What ?

 

[SunshineBoy]

Will become our best small forward

 

[Maybenextyear]

I love Bolton. Super quick , good goal sense , turns players inside out and an incredible mark for his size. At the moment he is our number 1 small forward.

X factor that is rare to find.

 

[db26]

Pure X factor and class.

Hope so. We just have to find the money to ensure he doesn't leave. I'm glad the coaches left him IN. Really stepped up tonight. These young kids, Baker, Bolton, Soldo handle the pressure well. I recall one kick that Rioli did to Bolton, that was spoiled by a defender. But much cleaner in the fwd line. Be great if Sydney could get selected too

Great news.

On the AFL sites Lions v tigers, "3 moments that mattered", Bolton featured in all 3 moments. A very good sign.

 

[peternorth]

He is a very good player with skills

 

[scarecrow2k1]

Remember when you campaigners wanted to drop him for this game?

 

[JackNah_8]

Very clever player. So that was his first finals match ?


Pretty impressive

 

[tony__montana]

Rose to the Occassion for finals - gotta love that

 

[Infamy]

Hopefully he'll sign/we'll announce the contract extension right before the prelim
Followed by Sheds & Houli right before the grand final (even though it will probably be after the trade period)

 

[RichoLedio]

Dat mark tho
