Is he a Josh Jenkins type forward?
Although the clip we saw was him playing at a lower level, he looks to have more tricks in his kit bag than Josh Jenkins.
What’s a Josh Jenkins type forward? I’ve repressed all memory of him kicking bags against us.
Athletic tall forward pocket ruck relief. Had craft and kicked occasional bags.
Jenkins scored about 80% of his AFL goals from Joe the Goose handballs to him in the goal square.
Still trying to work out how he got top 6 in agility at the combine, reckon he would have gone top 25 if he was Victorian.
More like quickly moved to CHB whenever Walshy was getting beaten.
Sam draper with a normal kicking action?
FTFY
Yes I know but was trying to be nice.
Big and mean, that ticks all the boxes for me.
Really excited to see how he turns out
He reminds me lots of Pat Voss but has the actual height of a true KPP.
Nice build, chest out, physical, and agile. Love it
He does look really exciting. Moves like an AFL player
Has more agility than Vossy.
I also like that he appears to have awareness of where his players are while in a ruck contest, and a neat ability to get the ball to their advantage.
Has some things to work on of course. Seems to like to handball to players under the pump, and is good for a few shanks when kicking for goal.
In my mind he brings Drapers physicality with the very nice addition of some football nous, but with likely a little less confidence in his ability.
Do he hit blokes from behind ?
Brad says you’ll be a long time excited
The pigeons used to land on Vossy
I might cop a bit for this but looked a Taylor walker style good around the ground with kicking but looks better in the air than walker and taller
Proudest day in my life was taking son (11 at the time) to that game. Hes a quiet lad, his dad does most of the heavy lifting shouting through the games… lloyd did job on sewell and Chaos Jr. Stood up in his chair, turned to the crowd behind us, pumped his fist and yelled “Yeah, cop that Hawthorn!”… tears welling in my eyes then and now as i reminisce. Glorious.
