Player Watch #30: Charlie Comben - re-signed until end of 2025

[Passmore]

Okay we can put to bed now “we desperately need to sell the farm to get another key forward”.

We’re year 1 into a 4 year rebuild. We don’t desperately need anything. We need to let the list evolve.

 

[Only Forwards]

4 goals with two from relatively tight angles on either side. After a prolonged lay off.

Good start.

 

[shinboner magic]

They said he kicked 4.3 today

 

[Tas]

Awesome news that he got to play and had an impact, hopefully he has a big pre-season and can play regularly next year.

The boys seemed pretty pumped with big TC biting off the corridor kick 1.25 into the vid.

 

[So You Think]

Looks a bit like the lead in Baby Driver ...

damn I live in yeronga. Had a working bee on this morning at only caught the last 10 mins. My only take away is that Phoenix Spicer was finding a lot of space and causing a lot of trouble A

definitely needs a few more games but could see a debut in the last 2 if he keeps this up.
4 goals in a scratch match isnt exactly AFL quality play yet.
love to hear that he's doing well though

FYI there was a strong cross wind too and quite blustery today

How talented are those young dudes. Bloody hell.

Just saw something on twitter about his mum would be proud and it reminded me that his mum tragically passed late last year. I suspect this would have been an emotional one for Charlie being his first game since, and even more so if he plays some proper VFL/AFL later in the year.

This is a more than 'fair' debut

Jesus he gets around the ground really well for a big lad. I was expecting him to look a bit lanky and uncoordinated after such a long layoff, but he genuinely moves like a KPF sized mid in this clip. Super exciting.

These guys and that cover totally blew me away. Thanks for posting.

I reckon we might have more of a 'mack truck' than a 'baby driver' on our hands nevertheless the music is timeless

 

[Masked Avenger]

Geez he looks pretty accomplished in that footage. Tall, quick and clunks them. Keep him deep I say.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Just stay fit Chom. Your spot is lit up in big blinking lights

 

[Billy Not Really]

He's needed now more than ever, but clearly the club will play it safe and we may not even see a game from him this year. Shame.

 

[Usayed Givashe]

Incredible debut.

No wonder we didn’t take Logan, this kid looks to be a step up on him talent-wise.

Play the rest of the year at second tier level.

Unleash Round 1, 2022.

7 shots on goal in 42 minutes is fair going....

 

[AnEmptyChair]

Love that he said he wants to put his hand up for senior selection by the end of the year. He's not interested in waiting for 2022 to make his debut.

 

[Passmore]

The wing span on the kid is incredible. He just about embrace the whole team.

Yep he’s hungry

reckon 2 full vfl games then get him in for a taste of senior footy this year
