Thought he had a fantastic game, really impressed with his goal kicking and hardness around the ball.

Which is obviously is wrong, but last week his stats on the AFL site were the same 90 minutes after the game - weird!!!!

Still - have been very happy with his contribution over the last 3 weeks. A good sign for our late draft selection of older guys - re. Koula and Thurley

He's played 3 games and the AFL site have yet to credit him with a stat.He must've pi$$ed someone off at afl.com.au. ;)
 
You're right Jub. 3 games played and complete duck eggs on the AFL site - I thought they must correct it later. That is bad how can they be so wrong.
just checked pro-stats.com.au for his actual stats....(not including tonight)

Agree for sure, must keep his spot for at least a few more weeks. However should be pretty much a permanent in 07 onwards. His hardness at the ball/man is great to watch, and he has what many players lack...poise!
 
What's his position though? Midfielder, Half Forward? I like him at either. What about a forward pocket, that's where he got all of his goals last night.
 
I've had the pleasure of playing against him in basketball also, quite classy at that too. Very good game last night, showed that we need a small crumber around the packs, especially when we have Mooney up front who is prepared to get into the contest and bring it to ground if he isn't in position to mark.

The Rising star winner must be under the age of 21 at January 1 of that year, must not have played more than 10 games to the start of that season and must not have been suspended by the AFL or State League tribunals during the season

stokes Date of Birth: 22 November 1984
that makes him 21 at the start of the year so he can't be nominated
 
Sensational effort. Particularly loved the weave through the pack and snap goal in the second quarter, and the goal on the run in the last. If he keeps it up he'll be the best indigenous player at Geelong since Polly Farmer!
