#41 Saad El-Hawli - thru 2025

IDK if he’ll make it long term, but players with his athletic profile are 100% what we should be targetting

You could pretty much say that about the entire team.

Interesting when you play a winger on a wing as opposed to a Key forward or lockdown dour defender

Keep sending him up every week

Loved this… some weird opposite winger tribute celebration thing?

I don’t care if his tank isn’t quite there, nor if he makes some mistakes, nor if he has some quiet games.

He has skills we need, and we simply need to play him every week, bar a load management style freshen up as needed. He will be a beauty in time.

Great to see Jye’s old man getting around the boys haha

Consensus is that he must continue to play.
Kid is a bit short on the fitness, but add so much. And what he lacks in fitness is made up in skill, speed and setting up the play.
Isn’t afraid to take the unexpected or difficult shot into the 50 resulting in goals.

For me ideally he plays all games hence forth.
The team is so much better for his impact that we are actually a vastly better side.

Looking forward to a fully fit version!

Reminds me little of a raw Sam Durham without the intense manic attack on the ball that Sammy has.

Tallish rangy type who can take a mark and kick a goal, plus pretty good endurance. I just hope he isn’t dropped. Pump games into him nonstop

Keep that up Saad and you will stay in the side

Really? I wouldn’t have described them as at all similar. Durham is a bull at the ball, but not the greatest user. SEH uses speed, lateral movement and a much better kick to open up the field, but isn’t a contested beast.

Please leave mate. Go to hawthorn.

We don’t like moving the ball quickly or good football skills.

We like headless chook running and limo wrist tackles.

Sorry you had to endure this shithole.

Why sub him off? He is one of the few players who has hit a target tonight

Certainty to be dropped now

It was a disappointing choice of all the poor players.
Better to keep Langford in.

Can’t wait for Brad’s reasoning for this sub (assuming there is no injury). Utterly disgraceful.

Midtable Brad says “fark you”!!!

Shiel yet to have a touch in almost a full quarter.
Great sub, really turned the tide so far.
