Player Watch #7: Daniel Butler

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Our first 3 rookies are all solid as well, Arnot was there because he was still contracted, who knows about Soldo
View attachment 211840

Well,It got me wanting to watch the ressies more last year,This year will be the same.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

i think so too.. but before i go shouting from the rooftops id like to seem them perform at afl so i don't shoot myself in the foot

I think this crop have a more of a chance of making it because we have spent money on the football dept.Makes you wonder out of that dreadful 04 draft how many would have made it if we spent the money on the football dept like we do now.

Don't you just hate it when someone with the factual version of an event pipes up

sorry Rita, did i let the facts get in the way of a good story? (not daring to call you that name at all just that it's a good saying given recent events)

 

[Ancient Tiger]

Can't wait till this guy does something special so Cometti can say "the Butler did it!"

 

[Googstar]

Looking forward to this boy becoming best 22. He is exactly what we have been crying out for. Quick, clean hands, good decisions and loves to tackle.

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

Yeah but can he kick a footy clean and neat...

Actually, that is a good question. What is his kicking like? I have only seen him live once and cannot remember any howlers.

 

[Bobsleder]

Surely it's time, roll out the Butler for the Swans.

 

[johnno77]

Did some nice things in the VFL on Sunday. Started really well but faded.

Play him for sure. If they want to look at the list like they stated, I'd be elevating Mabior for the last game as well If we can.

 

[Sir_Loin]

Had a great game the young fella. Showed a lot including pushing up into the midfield. Hopefully gets another run next week to build some confidence

 

[HumanMeatball]

Isn't that short either 182cm so can play in the midfield

 

[Toadvine]

Definitely plays the role better than Morris!

 

[Rumballs]

He had a great moment last year in the VFL. Broke away from a pack on the wing. Nothing in the forward line and the 2 guys ahead of him won't spread so he runs, bounces and goes straight at the defender. With perfect timing he handballs to one of the idiots who wouldn't spread and crunches the defender, leaving the 50 open. We then waltzes in for an out on the full. (it was very Richmond, 2016 edition). But his pace, decision making, execution and willingness to take the hit were a step above.

One of those reserve game moments that makes it worth going to see.

I saw his highlights video from the intraclub praccy match which were a couple of cheap goals. Last night was a range of good football over a whole game.

I hereby dub thee - Geezer.

 

[Phar Ace]

Dan's haircut seems to have made all the difference!

 

[HumanMeatball]

Tough hybrid inside/outside speedy midfielder for mine. Loves a tackle to

 

[TigerImposter]

Best 22

 

[docko911]

Thought he was gone in the off-season but the club have given him one last chance given his injuries over his first two seasons. Would be a great story if he turns out to be a gun small forward, and was the best small forward last night closely followed by Castagna.

I kept wanting Dimma to give him a go last year but he refused. Even told him that he was a good player personally! He persisted with the old guard who have continuously failed. Hope he realises that this guy is the real deal. Just needs to be given a decent run. Great defensive pressure, run and carry and pace with good delivery. Offers so much more than those who have failed us time and time again,
