News Sam Hayes signs for North Melbourne VFL

[xflamedancer]

As his buddy I would expect nothing less from him on debut. He showed today why we gave him a contract extension and I fully expect him to be around the club for a long, long time.

Legit has to be the best debut for a young KPF that we've had.

Can't wait until he bulks up and increases fitness levels.

 

[Us against the rest]

I might have to re think my play Billy push, mmm.

 

[Power Raid]

Stats?

 

[NEGAN]

[Port01]

Worst banana kick of all time

 

[Enviable Tradition]

CHICKEN!

Best debut by an 18yo ruckman I have seen.

Farken hell, we won the frees count

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Farken hell, we won the frees count

Majority of them were HTB and us tackling really well

According to crow supporters standing near me that's why we won

Was obviously sharing the load with Billy and Ladham, when he was tucking had numerous hit outs to advantage... was the work he did around the ground which impressed me... 7 marks and a goal.. could make a good key forward one day

That works out at 10.55 points per free.

Yeah... bloody maggots

 

[philthy05]

It was the way he won the hit outs that impressed me

Got hand to the ball easily, good timing and leap, and hit the ball to the right places.

Also for a guy who knock is fitness he got around the ground to contests a lot. Obviously made quick improvement on fitness combined with smart runner reader of play and good positioning.

All of which means that once he does get to afl level fitness he could do so much more

Don't forget Lindsay's frees for high tackles

Now that was very funny....can't remember any worse kick....but he played well as an 18 y.o. Will he inherit the nickname "chicken"?

Wot, not because their SANFL team are s**t?

If I had to guess it would be 55% Hayes, 35% Ladhams, 10% Frampton.

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

If I had to guess it wold be 55% Hayes, 35% Ladhams, 10% Frampton.

And he won every centre bounce with leap & height.

Not so strong around the ground as he 'only' 96kg.

Hey I swear the week before against the same ruck he was getting shoved around easily. He really fixed that up this week though. I'm very happy with his performance.

Maybe the club showing such faith with a contract extension does that for you. I hope so.
