Kolt’s mother is 100% the best recruit of the off season 

Don't forget we were the only club to visit the Kolt's family on their farm to meet them before the draft. Imagine the talk over the dinner table that night

[JTR 2,651]

For all our track & Casey watchers, how has he actually been going?

I saw him play live in each of our practise matches, but he looked more like he was finding he feet in those games rather than banging down the door for selection.

Any insight appreciated.

Thought he had a great game against the Bulldogs in Casey's last game after our Port game.

I hope Zane Dorko is ready

Really excited to see him play. Could the club not have told him yesterday to give his family more time to get over to Melbourne?

Ok from my perspective here is my take

1 He is like a sheepdog, rounds everything up. 

2 Is lively AND involved

3 Capable of the freakish, could be a possesion, kick, mark tackle

4 Very good skill set

5 NEVER say die spirit

6 Comparison?? Hnmm combo Sparrow, and Billings with a touch of Nibbler

[dee-tox 4,827]

Excited for the young bloke. Reckon his WAFL experience will hold him in good stead. He'll lay a few tackles and get on the end of some chains. Maybe even a goal or two. 

[Jumping Jack Clennett 1,618]

He reminds me of Garry Hocking on appearance. Great if he plays like him!

Whiskers?

I like how Goodwin's being bold with selections this year in picking Windsor, Howe and now Tholstrup.

Standing still ain’t an option - full kudos to the entire club from recruiters,  fitness staff, specialist and line coaches as well as Goody of course for the way our club develops talent these days.  We have had some fantastic newbies since 2021 - Bowey, Chandler, JVR, McVee, Howes, Windsor etc (humble apologies for any I have missed) .   Just hoping that the naturally slower developing talls Jefferson and Adams and Verral are all allowed time to make their mark.

Exciting times for Dees supporters.

Kolts mum is a crack up, They better not change there mind lol

NOICE, some good news out of the AFL today/this week
 

#excited to see this young man show his talent. 
 

Me thinks he is going to be a beauty

The Kolt to kick 3!

Lock it in!

[Lexinator 776]

Silver lining to Kozzy's suspension, very excited for this young man's debut! Good luck, Kolt.

Dees should play Living Colour's - Kolt (Cult) of Personality running onto the MCG for him! 😉

Wahooo we have all been anticipating the launch of the Kolt, so glad it is at the G tomorrow night so we can witness him Debut. Congratulations young man enjoy your first game with the Dees. Go the Esperance Kolt, how happy was Jack Viney.!!

Having seen Viney roast a few younger players (no longer at the club) I take Viney’s endorsement as absolutely glowing praise. If Viney thinks he’s up for it I have no doubt.

Yep, got in at $21 last night.

Knock em dead Dirk

[DubDee 20,685]

Is everyone calling him the Kolt as they too afraid to spell his surname incorrectly?

Tholstrup - sounds like part of a saddle on a horse. keeping with equine theme. 

tighten the tholstrup would ya?

 

*11 hours til game time and my jokes are this bad already. gonna be a long day
