I like big Butts. Seriously he looks a quality KPD. Like Talia he probably needs players running off him.Didnt realise how built he got...View attachment 1087148
Can't agree there, Butts has great running capabilities and is a far more efficient ball user than Talia. Once he gets more experience at the level I think he's more Nathan Bock than Daniel Talia offensively....I doubt Jordan will ever have the stopper/shut down ability of Talia that said.I like big Butts.

Was playing Rocket League last night and saw a user with the name "JordButts69", given that our man is a gamer i'd assume it was him. Left the game before i could say hi. Lol @ 69
umm sureSo close to a beautiful friendship forming.
Butts has been a revelation. Not bad for a #58 rookie pick.
Other very decent #58 rookie picks = Alex Keath, James Podsiadly, Jarryn GearyPLAYERCARDSTART42Alex Keath

yep..and whats better - we have Borlase who looks to be developing nicely in the SANFL side - has some real poise to his game. Still a way from a league debut but he looks a long term player for us. Lets hope Murray can also find his niche down backExcellent pick. He is performing much better than anyone expected.
Lets hope we don't use any more early picks on KPD players again and just stick to late picks or rookies.

Bock is a good comparison. Right down to the thing where he gets that "wtf do I do now?!" look with ball in hand!Good call - seeing the Bock comparison more and more over the last couple of weeks. Couldnt have hoped for more, looks very impressive.
Agree, shares some of Bocks attributes, including athleticism. What is great is that he is also now listed as 198cm whereas Bock was 193. Butts can use the ball pretty well. Looking forward to seeing him grow in confidence. Some really good spoils of late even when out of position. That height, reach and athleticism is a very handy combination.Bock is a good comparison. Right down to the thing where he gets that "wtf do I do now?!" look with ball in hand!
(Older posters may recall when that was a thing)

Kicked goals with his first 2 kicks - surpassed by Ben Rutten, who managed 3!If i recall Bock had 1 stellar year at CHB after playing mostly forward, then was cruelled by injury and ended up at GC.
Ahh Nathan Bock. What a blast from the not so past.

It's funny, because my reaction to seeing Bock in his first game or 2 was "he looks like he belongs out there".What i remember most though was just how bad he was before he came good. There was a final (Eagles?) where he was terrible. I remember thinking "this guy will never be an AFL player". Then he was - and he was bloody good for a while, started with a game shutting down Riewoldt at his peak. Have always considered myself a decent judge of talent and my take away from that was talls can come good later. Cant think of many mids that turned it around to the same degree, but loathe to write talls off early now.
And 1 with his last kick.Kicked goals with his first 2 kicks - surpassed by Ben Rutten, who managed 3!
Yeah that was a nice moment.And 1 with his last kick.
Very emotional day that one.
Used to take N Riewoldt in his prime when not many others could.You dont recall so well - neither do i these days, but luckily we have these internets here to help......
Was exceptional 2007 -2010. Elite - and i dont use that term as lightly as many here. Regular 20-30 touch CHB are not so common.

Up there with Blighty’s, Jammo and Liptak with Green Day song belting out at AAMI in 99And 1 with his last kick.
