Player Watch Ash Johnson

Can’t believe more hasn’t been said about this mark, that is a serious hanger.
I’ve got a feeling he could become my favourite player.
Not sure if true but I read he didn’t take it in the end. If he did it would be on all the reels you would think

Ah, I misunderstood; thought you meant that some of our dickhead supporters started calling Leon Davis “tragic” instead of “magic” after the 2002 GF or something.
Gotcha! As far as I'm aware that didn't happen, but I'm sure Leon copped a lot

Well at least the marks he takes, he really clunks them. We don't have too many forwards who do that at present. Too many second and third bites at the cherry. If he can develop as we hope, he will be an asset.
So let's all get on board with this guy and encourage him. Please, no more draftee bashing. It serves no purpose.
I loved the interview with him. Seems like a good honest bloke.

I was taken aback from his accent. But sounds a bit shy at the moment.

Said he has no injuries, so guess that ankle has healed.
Pretty classic Kimberley accent right there. Halls Creek and Fitzroy Crossing produce some great characters

Yeah. Its why he hadn't played in the sanfl last few weeks.
Has an ankle injury. Minor I think. But you'd think by now its healed up

Not sure where that intel came from, as he's played every game in the month leading up until the round just before the MSD (game on May 29).

Ash had 15 touches, 8 marks and kicked 3.2 in their round 7 match on May 22.

Jumper looks good on him, I am genuinely excited for this guy, I hope he makes a career out of this game.

To be fair, the jumper looks very good on anyone.
