Rookie 44. Matt Owies

[Aphrodite]

 

[BLUEALLTHRU]

Keyboard injuries are on the rise.

 

[Eiffel 65]

Does anyone know what position he'll develop in?

Small forward or small defender?

I'd hope he becomes a small defender. Having spend a while out of the game, it will be easier for him to pick up.

Also with Simpson potentially retiring soon, we'll need a ready made replacement.

 

[Jabba73]

Nice

 

[Mondyboy]

Surely his nickname will be “boo-boo”

We do have a bam-bam so why not.

Welcome. Right out of left field this one!

Pressure forward?

Welcome. Right out of left field this one!

Pressure forward?

Rebound Point guard apparently!

Spoke to someone that used to train with Matt. Apparently he was never the most gifted basketballer but he worked harder than everyone else and honed his craft, quickly becoming a star under-ager.

If he brings that work ethic to the Carlton footy club who knows what may eventuate.

That's good to hear mate …. work ethic makes up for a 10 year career in most sports …. look at Kedge …. lol

Agresta's first move?

 

[therubbernub]

Agresta's first move?

[skadoosh]

Is Oh-wees or Ou(ch)-wees?

 

[therubbernub]

....and even better, we beat the Cat poachers for him

People actually poach cats these days?

 

[ferrisb]

Only volleyballers




Breathe, ferris. Get over it...

 

[ferrisb]

Saute'd is better ….preferably in a creamy garlic sauce.

 

[ferrisb]

Holy crap. Did you guys hear he's 180-185cm? That's gigantic!






Also, HBF we gotta start playing bball. Apparently the players get measured in shoes!

 

[thylacine60]

ies!

don't oversell it............kids.........

 

[BLUEALLTHRU]

Not funny

 

[SHOWEY]

Welcome Matt. But can you go through the midfield?

 

[ferrisb]

I always thought Brendon Goddard would have made a good point guard.

Point guard. Get it? Point.....

Ah, what do you know from funny you bastards

 

[Zuribagger]

Great pick up. Welcome!

 

[mediumsizered]

I also think 1.85m is a stretch (he’s closer to 5”11)

Same height as Jezza. Should be an absolute gun.

 

[waitingforglory]

Is Oh-wees or Ou(ch)-wees?

Oh-wees

 

[SurreyBlue]

Our small defensive stopper with attacking play reading instincts. Like!
Possible move upfield ala Ratten later on.

 

[BlueGum]

Welcome Matt. Step one - choosing Carlton. Step two - picking up your footy skills again. Looks like you could be a likely prospect. Gunna enjoy the ride. Go well.
