I don’t want to be one of those people but I wish we had Nick Austin the year SOS tried to be too cute with the [PLAYERCARD]Liam Stocker[/PLAYERCARD] trade. Austin has been killing it since coming to us.

Fun fact....

In 2022, Blake averaged 440.1m gained. Which is almost exactly the perimeter (99.4%) of one standard acre...

The only thing more astonishing than this stat is the fact that you didn't invent it!

I started off convinced it was a crock... and now I feel like I need to apologise...

I had the idea I wonder how many acres* Acres averages in a match thinking it would be some random, silly number.

The answer was so much more interesting than I expected!


* And yes, I know that an acre is an area. Hence I used the perimeter of an acre...
 
I can honestly say I wanted us to get him when he left St Kilda for Freo as part of the Brad Hill trade.

We have got a very good track record with moneyball recruits under Austin, and I expect Acres to hopefully replicate the heroics of Hewett and Young last year.


Very happy about this move.

Welcome Blake !!

BTW am I the only one here who kinda hopes Bam Bam will allow him to wear Number 7 ?
