Some of those kicks while running at top speed are very nice and that play through traffic at about 55secs in... Not bhed.

Watching his highlights clip , he moves and plays like Tim Kelly except Walker has a better leap. you can't be upset if he ends up like him.
Bloody oath I'll be upset if he ends up at the scum, even if we get 2 years worth of picks for him.
 
‘A special athlete, Walker has a big vertical leap and freakish speed and agility, which he uses to intercept, take the game on and break the lines off half-back.’
 
Well done to you young man.I hope, like with Joel Western, that this game is the first of very many games in Purple.
I look forward to your progress in the big time.
Well done and good luck.
So the journey begins.
 
Is it too late to be his buddy? Does the job defensively, hits the kicks that are there and does the spectacular when he has too. Great debut!

Positive was seeing a couple of times that he competed in the air by jumping up from behind, but he was strong enough to deny his opponent with clearing spoils. A lot first gamers would get worked out of position, but maybe his jump gives him a different method of defending rather than engaging body on body.
 
How did western go. Thought he looked pretty quiet.
He struggled but Longmuir's half time comments were all about the backs not giving the high half forwards a chance.

I was impressed with Western's efforts in the last few minutes of the game - except his kick OOTF (but he did everything right before it). After he chased hard, laid a couple of tackles, and did a really good smother. Needs time to work into it. The learnings (looking over the tape) would be invaluable for him - so perfect timing for a debut imo.

Do you mean Walker? I thought Brandon was the one that kicked OOTF?
 
Boys got jets and good hands .
Looking forward to more !
