Welcome to the Kennel Oskar Baker

[weltschmerz]

 

[Bald]

Welcome Oskar. There will be plenty that will turn you into the scape goat of the team before you’ve had your fair crack. Go well.

 

[Testekill]

I'm abivalent but he's cheap and probably will only be given a one year contract to start so minimal risk for maybe some reward. He's absolutely going to be a scapegoat before he even pulls on his boots for us.

 

[Golden_6]

I'm more than happy to give him a chance.

It's only a one-year rookie spot contract and in a genuine position of need. A quick wingman is something we don't have on the list and I'm sure will be given an opportunity to make a claim for the senior side.

 

[weltschmerz]

Give him the number 13 for a Baker’s dozen

Yeah, if it works then we get a fast wingman on the cheap and if not then it's just a low risk signing that didn't work out.

Get out

 

[ossie_21]

Seems we identified him as having a point of difference we need, pretty low risk so happy to back him in.

Maybe we are now recruiting one discarded ranga each year. I hope Gary Rohan

isn’t out of contract at the end of 2023…

He’s the one who falconed Jake Bowey and thus broke the Dees’ winning streak.

[D Mitchell]

Why does he spell his name with a K ? No, I don't mean his surname.

Can't have too many Rangas on the list.

Wait, am I allowed to say that, or is it rangaism?

So ... we swapped an under-performing and troubled Hunter to Melbourne for another winger in Oskar Baker

plus a future third.

Hunter (28 next week,173 games) has a premiership medallion and a Charles Sutton Medal.
Baker (24) has just been cut from the Demons list after 15 games (none in 2022).
Fair trade?

I reckon Melbourne will get some value from Hunter - he probably needed a change of scenery - so we need to see whether Baker will finally make the grade with us.

It would be great to see them line up against each other in Round 1.

Rangas are a different race?

I must let Mrs dw know ...

 

[gordo2016]

He played well in the VFL GF. Interesting that he wears a black arm band every times he plays in dedication of his mother who passed away from cancer. Seems like a resilient character, hasn't let setbacks stop him from following his dream and it means a lot to him. Good luck to the young man.

 

[hoianbulldog]

His parents are hipsters?

No reflection on his ability, but looks like an old team-mate I played with at suburban level.

And an AFL player wearing a t-shirt under a polo?! Does he play cricket for England in his spare time?

I should know better. Tell Mrs dw that race is biological, describing physical traits inherited from parents. If she's not satisfied with that, she can start off with

Defining Aboriginality in Australia

and good luck after that, dangerous territory. However, come the inevitable divorce and property settlement, the Race Discrimination Commissioner might become an Intervenor.

 

[dergert]

Dude has speed to burn.

We need this and I'm happy to see the list management team address it.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Will be better than Robbie McComb at minimum.

 

[maddog37]

Good luck to him. We need speed so worth a throw at the stumps.
