[Kakkle]

I liked his attack on the ball tonight. Thought he did OK.

So did I.

 

[eth-dog]

Probably in our best 7 or 8 tonight. Maybe even top 5.

 

[Yoda_]

Liked what I saw tonight, reminds me of someone, just can't put my head on who it is.

 

[eDPS]

We need to be getting more games into him and as much as I’ve loved Francis I don’t think both fit together down back with Ridley and Hurley so it’s either Francis forward or he sits in the twos until Hurls and Hooker are done.

 

[The Devils Advocate]

Liked what I saw tonight, reminds me of someone, just can't put my head on who it is.

Me too, it's something about the way he sidesteps people before kicking, a cool head when he has the ball. Noticed it in the vfl too.

Prince?

 

[yodellinhank]

He's too slight (as a footballer, not as a Prince lookalike)

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Agreed probably should have got a few frees for push outs that didn’t eventuate.

 

[ant555]

Liked his game but needs to punch the ball from behind. Tries to mark everything.

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Impressed me with his pace when he shut down that contest in the pocket. Was rapid.

Btw... card in the OP says he’s 191cm? Pretty sure he’s significantly taller than that

195 according to club website and tends to play as Hooker's understudy, so possibly taller than that again.

I thought he looked noticeably bigger than last year.

233cm it is

Danny Jacobs?

 

[Kakkle]

Thought his balance between attack and defence was pretty good tonight. Good signs.

 

[eDPS]

Loved his game and looked set for a huge one before he copped that head knock flying for that contest. Plenty to work with and he won’t learn much more playing 2s footy.

 

[andleanback]

Thought he was pretty good tonight, except for that effort with himmelberg on the wing.

 

[eth-dog]

Just play him. It'll get him up to speed playing at the top level and he clearly belongs. Play Hooker forward when he's back

 

[MiguelM]

A lost art it seems with our backs

 

[eth-dog]

Think he ran out of petrol there.

 

[andleanback]

Think he ran out of petrol there.

Should’ve dived on the ball, he knew he couldn’t out run himmelberg. At worse would’ve been a free kick and gave the defense a chance to set up. He has to play from no one though. It’s clear there’s something there, let him develop. We shouldn’t be playing hooker over him if we aren’t going to play finals. Find hooker another role. I hope he gets King next week.

Agreed, I think it'll be a fascinating tussle if they do.

Watch Franga take him now

Give Francis day. Probably should be hurley, but after Cameron why not.

Depends on who they pick. I reckon Holman would be a good match up for him
