Universal Love Dan Houston

[Quadzilla]

The Rocket Man has been one of the finds of the season. Like Patrick Hernandez was born to be alive Dan the Man was born to play football.

Great composure, super kick and fine intercept mark. Does it all so well.

My most hated song by Patrick ...my new favourite player is Dan!

Both give us run out of the backlines. The men who'd be looking over their shoulders would be Clurey or Jonas and at the moment I'd say Clurey.

Gee I thought Clurey was great on Friday night.

 

[bomberclifford]

Steely Dan.

lol. You know where that names comes from don't you?

 

[*PAF]

If Clurey can bulk up and take over from Jonas our backline will be set for years to come

Wasnt there talk of turning Clurey into a big modied mid? He has an incredible tank. If we do think about removing him from defence I'd like to see him remain in the team.

Why are we trying to get rid of Jonas?

An 8 Day Clock?

 

[Schulzenfest]

Why are we trying to get rid of Jonas?

Because he had two bad months in 2015 and some people still aren't over it.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Getting off Houston topic but we wasted a couple of years of Clurey's development within big midfielder nonsense. Just because he has a big tank doesn't make him a mid. If that was all it took Kane Mitchell would have a Brownlow.

Get him to Tom Harley size and strength and he's set. But still keep Jonas.

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

Probably had a bad season but wtf hasn't.

Some players have had a bad career and they still get picked.

Jonas was our best defender a few years ago and has recaptured some of that form.

TJ is only 26

Read Burroughs' Naked Lunch for a description of what happened to Steely Dan I, II and III.

 

[NEGAN]

Solid, absolute lock right now in our 22.

 

[Wargreymon90]

Port supporter biased opinion:
His year so far has been every bit as impressive as Callum mills last year. Houston is just unlucky because he isn't a sexy too 5 pick

 

[Dalfino]

Saw this tweet from the AFL account yesterday - what took Zac Williams five years has taken Houston five weeks

In respect both cases show how the rookie draft still contains a few diamonds, making it all the sweeter when you strike one like Dan!

 

[Nemisis]

I love the support for Jonas ATM ... thinking back when he got the extra years contract extension, every poster was like

 

[*PAF]

Why are we trying to get rid of Jonas?

Who is trying to get rid of who?

Atm, when all of our players are fit and firing, Jonas is best 22 and Clurey probably not.

EDIT: What FF said. For mine, if he got bigger and stronger he would be scarily good and one of the first picked.

 

[GreyPower]

Clurey is clearly best 22 these days.

 

[Power Raid]

I think I have a man crush on Dan

 

[Northalives]

Houston is one of those very rare right footers who kicks the ball as beautifully as a lot of left footers do.

 

[LP7_]

Best kick in the team, there I said it.

 

[Shane_Mag]

Key part of our backline already. Love what he brings to the team.

 

[Kingfish73]

He has taken his opportunity by the teeth and been phenomenal. Been a revelation so far this year. Plays like a 100+ gamer

 

[agmsy]

Sorry, I think you are looking for the Jared Polec thread.

Sorry, I think you are looking for the Jared Polec thread.

I'll take Houston's leg over JP's every day, twice on Sundays.
