This bloke does not get enough recognition on this board, in my opinion.
Is having an absolute super season and has been one of our most consistent players since he crossed from the bombers.
Would not be surprised to see him topping our best and fairest at this point of the season.

A great asset to our club, both on and off the field.

Keep it up Bachar.
 
Was absolutely terrific last night and follows on from a great past month. I was close to ground level last night and he is harder at it than most think. I know Grigg also cops a whack for similar but you can't have everyone being an inside player, both he and Houli are key to our finals prospects!

Good call. His explosiveness off HB is great for our team and great to watch. Also love the fact he defected from Essendon Peptides.

Also, remember an article that said he had something like100-200 (correct me if i'm wrong) family/friends to sign up as members.
 
I will admit to getting overexcited every time he drifts forward to kick a major. He lifts when we need it the most. Becoming a bit like Robert Murphy's mandatory 4th quarter goal.

Absolutely adore Houli, an incredible bloke off the field and a workhorse on it. So great to see that he challenged himself to feel better and play better earlier in the year.

When Deledio plays in defence it takes away the attention from our other defenders. Houli is slipping under the radar of our opposition and is really hurting them for it. He is an excellent judge of when to defend his opponent and when to play off them offensively. I think he has really added to his offensive game this season, as a result of his defensive work. He is excellent at rebounding the ball, with his speed and clean disposal. He can also nail goals when he sneaks forward. Houli is an exciting player to watch and should be highly ranked among the playing group.

I reckon this season Bachar's improved massively in his defensive work and attack on the ball. Loving his season to date. Underrated on this board and in the football world.
 
He's worked on his defensive side hugely, and now his great rebounding game is being complemented by his solid pressure, tackling and dropping in front of opposition players.
He's underrated in the air as well, always there with the timely fist.

A great player to have at the club both on-and-off the field :thumbsu:

Absolute star. Gets whacked by posters sometimes for a perceived "softness" but the guy is the classic outside damaging player and he has a relatively small frame. When it is his turn to go however he always does. Very very underrated. Rarely gets mentioned other than when our recent trading is discussed. Keep it up Houli!! :thumbsu:
 
I was big critic of Houli's defensive capabilities. Happy to be proved wrong, he's been great this year and has acknowedged his weaknesses. Obviously very coachable. Whilst he's now in my best 22 regardless, still has some deficiencies IMO. Keep it up Bachor, with this rate of improvement you could be a gun.
