Toast Sam De Koning

[D BRIDGE]

The kid is a bonafide superstar defender in the making.
The crazy thing is that whilst he is already playing at a premium high level, he will just get better.
Imagine what he is gonna be like when he has a body with 5kg more muscle on it.


Anyway, lock him in for 2nd in the rising star.... ND is just a freak and will win it.

The kid should get the rising star IMO but it'll go to the name Daicos because nothing is fair in the AFL.

Nah Daicos genuine 1st spot for it but SDK second then 3rd is a long long way back

Daicos is a freak. He deserves the rising star

in the making. He’s already a good AFL level player improving week to week.

SDK is going to have twice the career of the cry baby Harris Andrew’s

 

[BlakeyNoFlakey]

I have changed my view about Nick Daicos. He is the deserved winner of the Rising Star and could even make AA in his first year. Utter gun.

 

[D BRIDGE]

Poor call.
SDK already stops his opponent better than the extremely overrated Andrews.
SDK is a special talent... will be a level or two above Andrews.

Don't tell Dawks fans that they will cry bloody murder at Newcombe not being 2nd if not first

Try telling that to a certain Hawks supporter in the rising star thread on the main board.

I hate agreeing with Barrett but he speaks the truth

 

[Gunf]

Agree with only having 1 Geelong player in the 22 because we didn't really have any standouts due to the performance being so even

At first viewing, cool a bit about SDK. Kept scrolling down, all good. Got to the bottom, big let down.

Gotta love this....

De Koning’s pre-season set him up for his first real entrance to senior football, and Scott revealed that feedback from star key forwards Tom Hawkins

helped reaffirm the club’s hopes that De Koning could become something special.

“It was relatively late in the pre-season,” Scott said.

“I think I said this in a post-game press conference recently, but some of the best feedback we got as a coaching group through our pre-season was from Hawkins and Cameron.

“When you’ve got two key forwards like that and say, ‘This young guy is pretty hard to play against’, that spoke volumes for me and us as a coaching group.

How recommendations from Cameron, Hawkins helped spark young Cat’s rise

That's amazing, very humble attitude from two blokes who would be forgiven for having huge egos too. Moments like these win premierships.

Warner from sydney would not that far back

Warner from sydney would not that far back

He'd be right in the mix... If he was eligible.

 

[catempire]

Will be good to see his ruckwork again this week.

 

[Ricky Vaughn]

SDK is a young Harris Andrews in the making. He’s already a good AFL level player improving week to week.

Comparison on playing style, not locking him in to be as good but Alex Rance is who I see.
