Looks like he has his own personal sponsor. And isn't he doing a good job for them.

From Nick's.

He's Rioli big.

I'd hate to see the diet they've got the poor kid on!

 

[FIGJAM]

That might be funny, but he cost us pick 29!

 

[Murray]

Don't panic yet guys.
Like someone else said - Rioli.
I also remember an over weight Kicket who used to carve us up most days we played them.
Sometimes these guys can be OK for a few years. MM likes his in and under style he said it reminded him a bit like Tony Shaw.
Time will tell I guess

From all reports he played pretty well on the weekend! I'm not worried.

He weighs more than some young ruckmen around 15cms taller than himm.

Mate, I'm pretty sure I weigh more than some ruckmen 10 inches taller than me.

 

[Nic]

Well, maybe that's a slight exaggeration, but I'm pretty sure I could take Stretch.

Looks like that fat useless bloke who won the Crows two flags.

Hope he's even half as good as Jarman.

When he was drafted people called him a Luke Godden lookalike and it aint wrong from what i can see there. Scotty Cummings must be working pretty closely with him.

 

[morgoth]

hmmm

Must say he looks **** in that photo. Some good judges also think he is crap. Still I think he was drafted with a specific task in mind. No one denies he is hard at it and his standing jump for a mark is apparently abnormal. Makes me think he has been drafted as a forward option ie too quick for a big guy, too strong in the air for a small defender ie mismatch.

He's got the skills to play AFL hopefully he can get the work ethic and the fitness.

 

[The Scarecrow]

Well he had do something good last year if he one the TAC's "Best and Fairest" thing last year. Give the kid a break, no one seemed to care that Dale Kickett was big, and no one seemed to care that Plugger was big then he was kicking many goals. Oh yes, don't forget Dunstall was a little big aswell, as long as he can play football and work's hard. Does it matter?

Apparently had another good game for Willy today! But I don't know how much we can read into that - Richo was BOG!
