No not Sirius.

This is the real SIRIUS winner of the 1944 Melbourne Cup

Look at Jordan, what a great snap.

Are you a big wrap for Neanderthals, as that's what Jordan looks like in that snap.

Does not matter if the cat is black or the cat is white as long as it catches mice

Hoping he has some big VFL games early

And if he doesn't?

 

[jmac70]

And if he doesn't?

You will post, "I told you so" on BF. How happy you will be.

 

[legendstatus]

My God, played s handful of games in his first year, got injured, hardly had any footy in his last year of jnr footy and KJs like TG are bagging him??? Seriously get a FN life!

It will not be the end of the world. We can be patient. It would be good if he has an injury free year and builds into his season in the VFL. Playing seniors is not a requirement, just a solid season in VFL where he shows good solid development.

Then he needs to finish the year off strongly to be at the club in 2018.

Uh, yeah it does. One tastes like licorice, the other tastes like Yusuf Islam.

So poor year like 16 and he gets delisted? Could happen.

Sier's not delisted yet. Not quite. So let's enjoy the 'wishing and hoping' phase a little longer? 2017 will come around quickly enough.

Pic has been posted elsewhere, but holy moly, can't say that Sier is a fatty anymore. Kid looks like an absolute animal now!

Excuse my profound ignorance but I am not sure which lad is Sier. Is it the fellow front right with the Rockabilly haircut?

Yes that's him.

 

[Merlington]

Yes that's him.

Thanks for that. Certainly looks like a well developed physique in my opinion. I've always associated the rockabilly haircut with the sort of pathological knucklemen of the late 60s and early 70s who made other teams wonder - I hope he develops into one (because I think the Pies could do with a bit of 'presence').

You're entitled to your opinion mate, but I'll respectfully disagree and consider comparisons to Pearce and Morton to be disrespectful.

Not sure where the Dangerfield comparisons came from around draft time, but I'd disagree with those too (and would have at the time). He's a solid old-school rover who has (or had!) some elite breakaway pace. Definite AFL-standard inside / outside centre bounce midfielder.

Three years outside of the system with an injury that takes away his key trait of pace though, means that he's up against it no matter what his future role.

Given it's an opinion shared within the club that's cool!

FWIW its another further stretch to label a guy that got 50% of his ball through handball receives at U18 level a definite AFL standard inside anything!

I think we can all be thankful though that he is now St Kilda's problem and that Aish was the sweet reward for his move

It would be good but I think he is more of just get the job done type like J.Kennedy from swans.
Adams is the fiery one.

Yep. Actually has a bit of Bryce Gibbs about him in the face in that pic imo.

 

[Scodog10]

I don't actually know which part you're confused by? Hapoy to clarify, but he spent plenty of time in full training so to be polite operating within AFL structure and adapting to ball movement wasn't a strong suit in that time.

 

[MagpieBat]

Despite that there was a circle jerk the likes of which will never be seen again on this board over him during the 2015 pre-season. The moral is a guy in a professional sporting environment for 12 months should have a good rig as a minimum so it means little.

FWIW St Kilda will get him right the problem is they'll soon realise they paid a hefty price for a state league quality footbalker!

I'm curious, was this a typo or a surgically subtle way of underlining your point...?

Typo. Dictionary off and I type too quickly for my own good so I've become king of the ninja edit and missed that one, but its apt all the same given his willingness to win his own ball...

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

Sier had some decent VFL showings? What were his stats? Not that it matter but Kyle Martin consistently got 35 possessions a game and kicked goals.

I had the same query when I read about 'the VFL showings' and the 'inside ball magnet' description, because Sier just doesn't have the stats to back up these claims. But you beat me to the question.

Yeh to be honest I can't remember getting more than about 10 possessions in a game.

See, this is why magicians never reveal how they do their tricks...

I'd be surprised if he even got that many, but perhaps this is more a reflection of my personal agenda rather than actual performance.

Maybe this is how you get inspired to do your tricks?
