Your avatar so pixelated why?
Anyone seen him play and have an AFL comparison? Seems to be half way between Sicily and McGovern from the vids I have watched.
???
Rowel?I’m going to temper my expectations of DGB.
Although I think he might win the Rising Star in 2021
Rowel?
Only thing stopping him would be a shoulder injury in Round 5 against the Cats.......oh waitAbsolutely nothing surer than Rowell taking it out.

To be fair, he's entitled to an opinion, even if it differs from yours or mine. He's trained and played with all those players you've mentioned, so for him to make that comment, he must have really been impressed. There could well be some recency bias thoughCroad and Gibbo are better defenders, not to mention Lake, Hodge is getting a bit ahead of himself i reckon, although Harris Andrewsis quite a good defender, its that dumb thing people in the industry do where they say every generation is better than the one before, rate them on the big games and big moments, not on the nothing games i reckon.PLAYERCARDSTART31Harris Andrews

I believe the song is actually "Take Me Home, Country Roads".Holy sh*t, I just realised 'West Virginia' was sung by John Denver!

In his recent interview he said he models his game on Grimes and SicilyIf we get anything remotely close to Grimes we have hit the jackpot. Whilst I'm certainly no fan of the Tiges, Grimes is just one bloke I'd love at Hawthorn. He's a star. Rarely beaten, does all the right things.

Yet stratton never got the accolades and recognition grimes gets, prime stratton was better no doubt about it.Grimes is a great defender, more a Stratton type when he was at his best but probably with a touch more pace. I've always liked the Stratton, Rampe, Grimes style of versatility in playing tall or small and attacking the contests.
The only thing that bothers me about Grimes is the amount he poses for frees. Genuinely my least favourite thing about players, used to bother me when Puopolo did it the same.

A recent aspect of his game.Except the pathetic diving for frees.
I want him to take Package in round 1.I hope DGB becomes much more of an attacking weapon than Grimes.
I like Frost for him personally, big strong and fast is perfect for negating the flog.I want him to take Package in round 1.
Hartigan will get Stewart.I like Frost for him personally, big strong and fast is perfect for negating the flog.
DGB to take the third tall (if they even have 3) and just focus on being a threat in the air and counter attacking.
Hartigan on 2MPHartigan will get Stewart.
2MP the other one.
Frost on Package?Hartigan on 2MP
DGB on Stewart
