The most unsurprising thing to happen this week. Was almost a $1.01 bet to play.

Nonetheless, I'm excited to see what he can do! Go well young man.
 
Look...I'm happy he's getting his chance...and I'm not saying he doesn't deserve it...but does it feel sometimes like the Marketing team have a significant say in selection?
Based on what? I think it's fairly clear it's a young guy getting a go after the coach got sacked. I would've been more surprised if he wasn't selected.

I think he's earned it but regardless of the events of this week he would have been playing this week.

Reckon he would have been playing this week even if Voss hadn't resigned. I wouldnt link the two things, he's earned it.

The timing is perfect due to it being Indigenous round, that's the only link I'd make.

Said at the time of his draft I see him as a genuinely elite talent and he's been living up to that so far this year in the VFL. Great to see him debut, hopefully his laser like kicking remains a strength at AFL level. Think he's one of the best talents we have on our list after seeing his development so far.

No. He's earned it. Stands out at VFL level and has been very consistent all season. Skill level elite.

If he had kicked 0.2 and had 5 possies on the weekend I’d say so, but he was stellar, and was played in some different positions - racked up 18 disposals and 2.1. Had the opportunity to kick a couple more in the last but did the team thing.

110% earned it.
