#34 - Jaxon “Arty” Artemis

He is, but I do love this combative version of Stallion.

I’ve pointed out this a little exaggerated elsewhere.

Sam Lalor is age 19. Its covering most of two drafts

Hmm, yes it would pick up a few of the younger 2024 draftees. Still a small pool.

Kiddies pool.

Like his first half-season. I think he’ll be great after a big pre-season including once his teammates get used to what he brings and bringing him into the game much more.

He reminds me so much of Fantasia when Fantasia played up the ground at Wing/HB. Even just stylistically.

I like him too. With his pace and generally good ball use, I would like to see him tried on a wing next year.

we hopefully get a few more looks at him back in the twos for the vfl finals, as well

My nick name for him is The Invisible Man, however he was good today and ran to some great spots and linked up nicely. I liked a few seconds efforts as well, overall made me think he could make it in the AFL.

Watched him closely at times.

Leads up at the kicker for 20m hit up but is ignored a lot.
Hopefully that changes when as you said team mates are confident in his abilities.

Had a shocker today. Hopefully he’ll feel more comfortable at the level after a big preseaon.

Yeah I hope so he’s been underwhelming so far

Noticed the last two weeks he’s been used asa lockdown defender and had his opponents under control. This could be his role moving forward.

That was a proper hip and shoulder yesterday.

He does a lot of the same criticism I have when Johnson’s in the team. Get themselves to open spots in transition/switches in space and just constantly ignored. Stifles development for these kids like Artemis if they do the hard work getting to good spots to not be used!

Great end to the season getting games into him and hoping he gets to play in the VFL finals this weekend
