Toast Blake Acres - Rising Star Nomination

[Glen Buterol]

How funny is this from Dunstan about close mate Acres:

“He’s a hard one to describe because he is a bit of a character. Sometimes we have a love/hate relationship because he’s a bit of a peanut and is hard to argue with because he’s dumb.

Near the end of AFL 360, when they asked him a bunch of questions in a pre-recorded interview.

And this:

“We also played a game in the under 18s against each other that we’ve had plenty of discussions about. I think he ended up with seven possessions that day so I’ve always ripped into him about the fact that we won the championships against them and Blake had seven touches and ended up with a sore shoulder.”

Craig Thomas (under 18 coach)on Blake Acres

 

[Strahany]

You older folk may like to call him "Greeny", due to Green Acres

 

[Armoooo]

Surely Blacres is already established.

 

[Choomah]

Said he's 192cm and 90kgs solid unit, wish the clubs would update the heights and shit

Beast.

 

[aussierulesrules]

Said he's 192cm and 90kgs solid unit.

Really, where did he say that?

 

[Glen Buterol]

Really, where did he say that?

On the SEN interview. Said when drafted he was 190/90. After 2 weeks of training lost 4kgs. Now he's 192/90.

 

[aussierulesrules]

Sweet, thanks for that. Our man Kawalsky on the money again by the sound of that (said he was now 192.7cm)!

I'm still claiming it. For those brave enough to visit Saintsational.

Blake Acres = Blakers

 

[Glen Buterol]

If Acres remains in the team I reckon he'll win the rising star. Averaging 21 touches with limited game time. He'll continue to improve throughout the season & push up his average possessions.

Well played sir.

I actually searched the St Kilda board before claiming that but didn't search the Players board.

Hope you're right...got a little something riding on it, so if Richo drops him again I might have to have another meltdown

Weitering and Parish will be hard to beat.

 

[Gangnam Saint]

From his SEN interview he's 192cm!
That's a monster in the midfield.
This kid could turn into something special.
