Very good read. Interesting stat too:

"The Hawks have generated 74 points directly from his intercepts – ranked fourth in the competition of the top 50 intercept players, with only Michael Hurley, Robbie Tarrant and Rory Laird above him."

Daniel Harford (1995-3003) Games 153: A creative half-forward and onballer. Played in the 1999 night premiership.

Jeez that Harford bloke had some longevity

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

His big shorts had superpowers.

Was gonna pull that same quote out of the article. Very impressive.

That is the kind of stat that puts a player in AA contention

Oh no you didn't!!

 

[vanders]

Pants exploding

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Great again

 

[SA HAWK]

He is superman.

Anyone have any idea on why he came off? Looked like a strained calf possibly. Hopefully just cramp though!

 

[SSSSSS]

At what page did the lid blow off.

Can we put the lid back on just so we can blow it off again?

Looked like something to do with the ankle, but 90% sure he was back on the ground afterwards so it's either cramp or very minor.

Ankle I heard. Not sure if he came back on. Read somewhere else it was from earlier in the game.

Great news. Didn't notice him back on. Hoping it was him you saw!

 

[Cynic]

Will he be in the team of the week?

 

[Lethality]

He is freakishly efficient. Even his scrubbers seem to go straight to a teammate.

 

[seysearles]

Burton got 29 possessions off half back in 3 qtrs of football. I don’t know where this kids ceiling is but he hasn’t come close to reaching it yet.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Genuinely looks like he'll be our best player within 2-3 years.

Is so composed.

 

[HawkMongrel]

His mind is so much faster than most.

 

[Billyc]

Aside from how good he already is, I love his ambition. He wants to be a midfielder and you can tell he wants to be the best player going around.

With his skill set he will be a star. Where he plays his best footy remains a mystery for now. He looks like he could be the best CHB in the comp. Equally with his size skills, ball winning ability, reading of the play, he could be a star midfield and forward of centre player.

I really don't know. But I'm excited to watch it all play out.

Enormous credit has to go to the club for taking the punt on him. The best clubs take risks on elite talent. This risk looks like paying off big time.

 

[Gaston]

How was that bullet to Breust in the last? had me jumping from the couch.

In 2-3 games at this rate!

In The Article today it listed his weight at 91 kilos I think. At 191cm and 91kg he could be a dominant midfielder when you pair that with that lethal foot of his.

I don't, but hey, as long as you don't aim in my direction.
