[Lore]

Contract Status: Out of contract 2025
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 5, Happyskeret

 

[Zach Package]

Scalpity, scalp, scalp.

Good lad.

 

[Darealrath]

Looks a natural.

 

[MiguelM]

Very impressive.

It is a long tunnel a glimpse of light with the kids.

 

[Bjchan13]

One of the only positives this season. Its good just to be getting games into him, the fact he's playing well is a huge bonus.

 

[blitzer]

Nice to see him up and running and showing what he can do. Just has a way of getting his limbs in the way of potential goals - reminiscent of some of the work that Fletcher used to do.

He seems quite switched on and I think he covers the ground very smoothly for a bloke his size.

If he can keep his body right then I think we'll have a long term key defender and someone who can play on the bigger blokes.

 

[Howard Moon]

He seems composed with ball in hand, good decisions, can see the beginnings of intercept marks but I don't see him actually effect spoils at all yet which should be your easy 1 wood as a young defender

He reads the play so well and takes his time to mark an informed decision. Great signs.

Good lad.

assuming your talking about Lynch (0.4). How does one come up with this conclusion ?

 

[Vindicater]

Reid down one end.

Jones down the other.

Coleman medal leader coming off 7, 5 and 5.

No goals.

Everything else is unnecessary fluff.

Forget the fact that Riewoldt kicked 1 on him or the fact that Lynch had 4 shots on goal.

He will be better for the run against a couple of very good forwards but to suggest he can pocket them is a bit facetious.

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Has shown a lot for a young man playing his 5th~ game in a team where mids don't defend as well as they should. I still look forward to trying him at FB with Cox at CHB in the future. But Reid looks the goods so far.

 

[Ati Tude]

Shouldn't be too long until we swing him forward now...

The composure Reid shows is the most exciting thing. Doesn't look flustered

 

[MarkJohnson#1]

You've gotta love how he's going about it given his size and experience. He competes, he is composed and he is a good user of the footy. Will be huge for us in a few years once he has physically developed.

 

[naraku]

Can't be happier with a kid who's played 5 games.

Lynch shanking 4 very gettable shots is luck, not skill.

Well and truly outmatched on Lynch at this stage of his career, but competed all game, did some nice things and didn’t drop his head.

He was fortunate Lynch didn’t have his kicking boots on.

 

[ghostdog]

Kick didn't make the distance which led to the Redman turnover and a goal, but mostly his disposal and decision making has been quite good. You could see the ambition to open up the corridor when he went for the kick and it would have been marked had he made the distance. Vision didn't match the execution. He'll be a very solid key post in a couple of years.

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

Disposal and decision making a tick so far. Competes well in the air.

A lot to like but a long way to go so need to see a decent body or work.

 

[citizen-erased]

Such is our luck that we're playing him on lynch whilst the tiges have gibcus on francis.

Loving that this kid is confident with the pressure too

 

[eth-dog]

3 more years!

 

[The Prosecutor]

I hate our graphic design templates so much. Like, I shouldn't have to put so much effort in to figuring out who or what they are referring to.

Other than that, nice.

It does have his name on it...

 

[The Prosecutor]

That you almost have to squint to figure out. Let alone the blurb under it.

 

[sameolds33]

That's great news. He'll need to learn the words to the victory song now. Even if it's going to be a while before he gets to sing it again.
