Toast Welcome to St.Kilda - JACK PERIS!

[snails13]

He is a project player. When they say he is quick they mean he probably is the quickest in the afl. That’s how quick he is

If no one can catch him then we only have to teach him how to bounce the ball on the run

Nice theory but in that case marking and disposals is probably going to be necessary too!

So we can lock in the grand final sprint for a few years?

That's Two negative posts now i have read about Nova , what's the story with her ?

 

[Minga]

Has never played a senior game of footy in his life

Does this tell you enough that he is a long way behind?

Played 1 game of U 18s in Darwin and 0 Senior games

Goodluck with his loud mouth Mum blasting the FC every week on her instagram

Ahhh ok?

I don’t think anyone is expecting a category B rookie to not be a long way behind… that’s kind of the point of it, he’s a developing prospect.

anyways…

she's gonna be a real pain in the arse I reckon

 

[George]

Google her and take a look at her insta posts

She is disliked even in her ''hometown''

Her daughter is very similar

I've taken a look at her posts. Two recent posts about her son being drafted and the rest looks like just her life. What is wrong with it?

 

[#gosaintas]

Goodluck

I doubt he makes it anyway and we paid nothing for him but we will have to deal with her outbursts

 

[George]

Keep scrolling

I have. There is nothing that stands out. Show me what I should be looking at.

 

[George]

No chance he does

As most category B rookies lol. You are definitely making an unnecessary point.

Well I'm certainly not deathriding the kid like you are but I have zero expectations. He's a project. A very high % fail. You seem to be gleefully looking forward to witnessing it. I guess you know him and he doesn't rate you. I can see why.

Yes, doubtful he reaches the lofty heights of Connellan, Holmes and Alabakis.

What a waste of a low cost pick that would otherwise have gone unused!

The 45th player on a list has a slim chance of making it as a consistent AFL footballer. Shock horror.

Nobody is denying it either haha. We all know he's got a lot of work to do. Good on him, let's hope he makes it.

say what? what footy club was she blasting?

 

[borderbarry]

Nova was the first indigenous Aussie to win an olympic gold medal, she beat Kathy by an olympic games.

She's an Olympic champion, a leader of young indigenous Australians who has put the time in at ground roots level and an amazing person to have around the club.

To think after this draft we could have people like Gavin Wanganeen and Nova Peris involved in the club is simply awesome. We want to be a club where indigenous Australians feel welcome and celebrated, not only because it's the right thing to do but because historically gun indigenous players win their club flags.

 

[Saints43]

Not a big fan of mum but all the best to him.

I reckon that would be one of the worlds most unnecessary comments.

 

[George]

Lol, he deleted all his posts. How strange.

 

[Tommy Wigs]

What a peanut

 

[StCicatriz]

what a strange poster that "bloke" was

I know who she is and what she has done ........................ I was asking why there have been a couple of negative comments about her

She dared to put her head up over the parapet and go into politics? That will cloud the view of some people immediately?
That or she's been married 3 times because that of course means your 'difficult'.
Or she's unafraid to express an opinion?
I like her myself so only guessing...

We should just stick to drafting kids with polite, compliant parents.

Wasn't there any Clokes, Jacks or Wests nominated?
