Toast Congrats Simon White...

[Alpha1]

On your debut for the mighty Navy Blues, wear that jumper with pride and passion young man and all the best for the future.

 

[Ryan Dixon Webb]

Can't wait to see the fella strut his stuff in the navy blue

 

[gbatman]

Like, should have been on round 2, gee we are shocking at carlton when it comes to being Reactionary!

 

[HBF]

Well done Simon White. Was briliant last week, and i'm hoping he can carry that form over to SA on Saturday. And we also get to see the famous No.43 jumper running around again.

 

[Alpha1]

HBF from what you are saying I gather this kid has good skills etc? And is a very good player?

 

[BlueTongue]

Good work Whitey. Go forth and dominate my son!!!!

 

[Alpha1]

BT didn't know White was your son or you had a son?

 

[OnceWeWereKings]

Good luck young fellow........

Play with passion and you will be supported throughout your career.

Go get 'em

 

[blues4flag]

Hopefully we've found ourselves yet another defender on the rookie list. He comes in for one who's managed 150 games and plays along another who captained the club last week.

 

[Alpha1]

And if he's any good he can go forth and multiply, or is that a S&M reference you alluded to?

Harks man today your dark side is coming out in explosions....

HBF from what you are saying I gather this kid has good skills etc? And is a very good player?

Watched him play live last week, and he is very composed down back, and uses the ball very well. When he was lined up on Hurley, he did a pretty good job at making the contest, and getting a good spoil in. As I have said previously, I think WH & SR have found a pretty good footballer here.

Blue and White? . . . s’alright for first-gamer Simon

A Rising Star Award winner for Subiaco in what was his maiden season at senior level in the WAFL last year, White had on more than one occasion in Perth been told he was either too small or too skinny to cut the mustard at AFL level - which only served as a driving force in his steady elevation to senior football at the elite level.

“I had an inkling I was close. With Paul Bower out I thought that there might have been a spot for a defender, I’d played reasonable footy in the VFL and I’d been told by the coaches that if I’d kept going the way I was going I wouldn’t be too far away.”

“I played about a year and a half of reserve grade footy before I got my chance at Subiaco, and I suffered a few injuries in my first senior year there, so I had to deal with that,” White said. “Playing AFL was always a dream for me, but at that stage AFL seemed a bit out of reach, and there was a time where I thought it had actually passed me by."

Blue and White? . . . s’alright for first-gamer Simon

Hopefully Kouta presents him with the number 43 guernsey.

 

[Jeremias]

Well done Simon

Was looking forward to watching him on Saturday for the Bullants but now I'm looking forward to watching him on Saturday even more.

Hopefully he can put in a really solid performance against the Crows and give himself every opportunity of not only featuring in the senior side throughout the season, but also securing promotion and forging a pretty good career for himself in Navy Blue.

Best of luck Simon...well done on achieving a call-up for the greatest sporting club in the country

 

[BlueTongue]

And if he's any good he can go forth and multiply, or is that a S&M reference you alluded to?

Either reference will do ... as long as he beats the sh1t out of them!

 

[blueboy25]

Well done whitey, good to see another WA boy play for the Navy blues.

 

[Bluebear]

Liked him the first time I saw him

is what I'm sure I'd say if I'd laid eyes on this kid before.

Good luck Stev........er.....Simon.

 

[Knackers26]

Congrats and good luck young fellow.

HBF: He obviously plays above his height. Tis only 190cms

 

[starchamber]

Good luck to him hopefully he does well.Did he do well in the VFL last week and the last month at pre season training? I just haven't really followed the Bullants practice games.

 

[WALKERTOBETTS]

Yes! well done Whitie....all the best young fella

 

[The Toad]

Hopefully he too will have his name on a locker in the future. Well done, shagger.

 

[Salaryman]

Good luck to him hopefully he does well.Did he do well in the VFL last week and the last month at pre season training? I just haven't really followed the Bullants practice games.

Broke even with Michael Hurley last week. Not bad for a 190cm pick 56 off the rookie list

 

[Korn]

did he played any pre-season game? what's he like as a defender???

[Dennis]
