Player Watch #31: Josh Goater - re-signed until the end of 2026

[DarkPhoenix]

Yep …. I was not going to say anything because I thought it was me being over critical but this stood out like dogs balls from his first clip highlights reel . He almost looks like he pushes with both hands when hand balling .
I’ve never seen anything like this with the exception of young kids at OzKick .
Strange one that … I still think he’s a great pick up & potential future gun player for us . Let’s hope he’s handballing technique gets corrected swiftly.

Luckily he's got a couple of years of handball school under Cunners.

Paul Curtis used to play for Melton

Where did this guy learn to handball

Lets hope he is the Steven Smith of handballing...

Can we cool the jets on the expectations a bit?

Calling him the next Bont or a freak is plain ridiculous.

'It was a massive moment': Josh Goater on his big draft night

He sounds every bit as passionate about the NMFC as we do.

No one is going to doubt his 100% commitment on the park. He bleeds Royal Blue & White.

My grandpa does community radio at Sunbury and is trying to get JG on his show tomorrow morning - club said they’d call him back today, but no dice as yet

“I think it’s a beautiful place. We’ve got an elite program here, it’s really professional and I’ve been absolutely amazed not only by the facilities we have here but also the history of the club that you can feel as well,” he said.

“You can see that history on the tiles of our mosaic wall, and looking at it and the history that’s on show there, of course you’ll aspire to be one of those players that’s remembered by the club.

“It just inspires you and motivates you to be the best player you can be."

Hooked. He'll never leave, ever

Certainly has a serious frame to build around and looks like he already has little trouble putting on size to that frame.

Kangalotto can GAGF. Edwards is a shell of a man since he lost his locks. Don't shear the goat!

Bacchuss March has been quoted as hottest place in Victoria as it's near Melton.

Kangalotto sucks.

Goater was second on St Kilda's board at #11 in front of Sinn, Johnson and Hobbs.

 

[giantroo]

Finnegan confirmed that Goater would start in the backline.

 

[Masked Avenger]

A bit of Errol Flynn going on there with the locks and mo. The best thing about his recruitment is that it puts to an end 10 years of largely recruiting nice and neat footballers without standout traits.

Mrs HB works with a lady who knows The Goaters very well and she spoke to Mrs Goater and they were guaranteed he would go on the first night to Freo. They were shocked when it didn't happen but elated in the end obviously.

Happy he came to North but weird Freo were looking at more HBF types considering is not a position of need and they just got Jordan Clark.
Guess when Johnson became available they changed their plans.
Seemed to have just drafted local talent as everyone from VIC wants to go home.
