Matthew Spencer

How is he travelling Cats fans? Be interested to hear as his SCI is enormous with only short history in football.

Has he put on any weight at all, how is he training,what do you think of his mannerisms?

Be interested to find out.

FWIW I think he is a fine young man with a bright future. Totally dominated Kepler Bradley everytime he has played against him.

He is already very big.

Think I heard Mackie say he was embarrased only max benching 80kgs while first year player Spencer was already at 115kgs.

By all reports he did well in the intra clubs playing as a tall back. Played a half on Kingsley and did pretty well. Wasn't considered for the 28 man squad this week but like all the kids he's got plenty on time

Shaitan would be better placed to comment, but he appears to have impressed in the trials.

Still a while off, but that's to be expected.

I saw him play last week in an Intra-Club match.

Nice size already - Not a huge amount of work needed in the gym. Covers the ground nicely and always is working hard to get to a contest which will endear him to most supporters. Strong mark but his only downfall is his kicking. He has an awkward style and isn't the most accurate of kicks. But that is a minor problem which will be sorted out by our coaching staff.

From the limited times I have seen him, I've been impressed. He looks a good key position prospect at either end of the ground.

Just like they did with Clarke and McCarthy?

True.

But I have faith in the new coaching team. Last years just filled me with fear.

cant say that Mccarthy had improved his kicking after seeing the port game

Spencer is a dead set ringer for a smaller version of Matthew Primus. Mannerisms and kicking style are very similar.

Good to hear he is going well. Would love some updates on him from time to time if possible.

Cheers.
