Not sure it’s disrespectful, just unrelated and…well…rubbish ( ellipsis used for dramatic inclusion effect)

So, a fair chance the young fella who has just realised a dream, has become the first NGA signing of a “respectful” club would find his way to read a thread designed to welcome him to the club by a significant representation of the supporter base.

So what does he see? Nice intro to his “supporters”. You can believe it is not disrespectful. I choose to think otherwise. There needs to be a cap on unrelated banter, particularly in player threads.

Not sure Dom is sitting home wondering what random stuff is being discussed on BF. There is more love than banter, fairly sure he and the club can manage the discussion of anonymous BF posters. Relax mate.
 
Stick thin and will lose some of the speed leap and agility with the addition of the necessary muscle. But should still be an impressive athlete as long as the muscle is developed in the right areas.
 


Akuei was selected as a Category B rookie in 2021, becoming the first ever player to join the Blues from the Carlton Academy,

Currently in his second season in the Navy Blue, Akuei has played every game in the VFL this year. 

His season-best performance to date came in Round 3 against North Melbourne, which included 15 disposals, six kicks, six marks and nine handballs. 

Boasting an enormous vertical leap, Akuei made a case for VFL mark of the year with an impressive aerial mark against Geelong in Round 1.

“Dom has developed immensely throughout the 2023 season, it’s been great to see him refine his skills over the past year.   

“It's been really pleasing to see all the hard work he puts in pay off on the field on the weekend, but also throughout the week at training. We look forward to seeing him grow and develop his game further to become the well-rounded player we see in him.”
