[Thewlis Dish]

Feel like Durdin would have to be a late in.

 

[DEVO]

Congrats Curtis, kick a bag.

VFL watchers, how does he rate on the Mongrel Scale?

Has got a little bit, possibly carpools with The Zurhaar. Is a non shirker

[Only Forwards]

Hope he smashes it tomorrow.

Earlier , Probably by about 2 years .

 

[Jasemon]

Is Warnie turning up then?

 

[shinboner magic]

Kid has talent but most of all has the confidence in his ability- will play without fear and look like a 100 gamer after 10 games at the level.
No pressure
Every other club get your excuses ready for overlooking this kid

Coaches job on the line?? Does something different?

 

[ferball]

I see a lot of Tim Taranto in Taylor. I hope that Taylor can continue to work on his endurance base and develop into a high high forward/mid role like Taranto as opposed to the Forward role. Nothing wrong with that of course but with his x-factor he looks to have a higher ceiling.

That's a big rap. Taranto is a gun.

Hope you're right.

 

[ferball]

BigFooty needs a new thing for **** v ****. How am I supposed to know if you’re saying he’s a sick **** or a sick ****?

People should use this:

Congrats Curtis.

Hope its the first of many in the royal blue and white.

[Friday Night Lights]

Pumped for this kid. All of a sudden in Taylor, Ziebell, Wood, Zurhaar, Garner and Thomas we’ve got a heap of tweener forwards who can provide difficult match ups for defences.

All 6 of those guys can kick a bag on their day, hold onto a good grab, have reasonable pace, are above average off the deck and can stick a tackle (Taylor and wood maybe not so much). Has the makings of a pretty dynamic forward set up.

Taylor is actually pretty hard at it

 

[GS WARRIORS]

A day behind.

Good luck Curtis. Have a great game.

Yeah more so his size than anything. Gotta love what you've seen so far today.

 

[glenn2479]

Just saw Brad Scott hand Curtis his first jumper. Brad fumbled it and dropped it at his feet.

 

[Elite Master]

He performed okay today. Got to the right spots, won some hard ball. Just couldn't finish off his work. It was disappointing, but it was only his 1st game and he certainly should be playing next week.
