It scares me how good he looks considering how few games he has played.

It’s very promising his trajectory has not slowed since he bolted up the draft order

Watching Pommy on Bomber Banter on Tuesday night.
He said about Robey: “on Sunday night, I hated him. I was calling him ‘a f*cking arrogant prick’ while he continually seized upon Welsh’s injured shoulder. I Can’t pay a bigger compliment than that as a rival supporter”

His synergy with Sharp is excellent. These two might finally be the ‘take no ■■■■’ midfield combo we’ve been screaming out for for years.

Who is the last first year player for us to have burst onto the scene like Robey has?
Maybe Mcgrath in his rising star winning first year and Heppell before that?

Robeys different though. He’s got a presence and attitude that just seems more intimidating

When your 18 years old, and your physically intimidating the biggest and most powerful midfielder in the AFL…… it’s pretty clear this is another level.

Dean Rioli in 1999. He was 20 though.

Im watching Danger now… here’s hoping
Did he ever have any sons?
His last 2 games he has gone head to head with Harley Reid and Cripps and acquitted himself quite well. All this and he is only 18!

you just love that Robey was first in on the scuffles.
A player that actually enjoys being physical, unheard of at Essendon.

Do players still get fines for melee’s?
I remember Sheedy used to love a good melee when the boys needed a reset. It almost became the equivalent of an AFL time out.
Was it Riewoldt that he handled as well in either his debut or second game?
