Player Watch Pick #18 (2016) - Sam Powell-Pepper

[Power Raid]

If he can tidy up his disposal and fit some consistency (in his ball use) he can become a genuine a grader.

I don't buy into the fact he has sh*t disposal as many (non PAFC supporters argue). Players who cant kick don't kick goals from outside 50, something we have seen he has done that multiple times including in the wet and off a couple of steps.

when he's fresh, he's fine

just like westhoff, when SPP is run off his legs his disposal is questionable

As his tank improves and he knows his limits better, we'll see SPP kill it in the middle and not have jelly legs when he rests up forward

I hope this isn't factual in terms of three day bender

This suggests personal demons, with only two outcomes. No booze for life or a wasted life.

A lawyer in my office had a similar issue and he would say "one beer is too many and one hundred beers not enough"

Sadly this is more than believable, but for the record who the hell is this guy?

I reckon it shows a lack of professionalism and lack of care for his club and team mates.

No clue hahaha just searched up Sam Powell-Pepper on twitter and this popped up. But for him to post it 12+ hours before anything about it came out I’d suggest assume did happen.
Just hope it can be fixed coz I ******* love SPP and his attitude in games and it seemed like he has been fixing his off field issues over the last few years.

I was wondering the same.

I am assuming Sam doesn’t live with Boak anymore then?

Even if he still does - Boak doesn’t need to baby him. He needs to grow up

Very disappointing if true. The club statement along the lines of he’s not expected back until April, reads more us telling him to not come back until we say so. The way we are travelling you don’t want to give up your spot.

Na, brought his own house.

Snake?

Na, brought his own house.

It’s been a couple years now I think?

Wow this doesn't sound good. This is the best time and era for the club, I hope he doesn't disappear for too long and miss out.

 

[Mundusa]

I hope this isn't true, he improved so much last year. We all had high hopes.

 

[raman]

Snake?

And a Trump supporter lol, so well used to dealing in magical thinking.

That said, there's no denying SPP is a loose unit.

 

[Jojay]

I wonder if Ryder essentially doing the same is just a coincidence or something else going on?

Probably best to wait for more information to arise rather than stoning the bloke based on an random twitter post. SPP has done a lot right in the last three years.

Yep. Trust that he needs personal leave and wish him the best. Any combination of things could have happened.
