Bang Na Demon

Surprised no one seems to have said it already but XL would have to be favorite for the rising star nomination after that outstanding debut. Did he make a skill or decision error all game? I was impressed with Jeffo too. He competed well, was defensively sound and got good wheels. Hendo showed a bit too. I suspect he'll be playing a lot of senior football this year

My thoughts too

Clickbait

Wow! Got some moves, looks like the game's in slow motion for him. Just as happy to go left or right foot although kicking looks a bit iffy but hope we get him. Some serious looking upside there

Hardness on steroids by those highlights. Love him!

The last early selection I fixated on we took the player I wanted. I was ecstatic! He'll turn our fortunes around I thought. His name was Jimmy Toumpas

To go with the sticky hands his foot skills are elite

He's a beauty. Good wheels too

I also reckon his field kicking has improved a bit the last couple of years

Watching him this year I was seriously impressed with some of his tools. Excellent kick at all distances. Very strong thru the core, a good overhead mark and makes good decisions with ball in hand

Despite living in Bangkok and wimping out (as I have for every match this year) I still take out a premium membership so my seat was paid for

Yes, and super clean. Did he fumble it once tonight?

Bumping Stringer off the ball for that contested mark was a thing of beauty. How can someone with elite pace, elite decision making, laser like foot skills with plenty of toughness and deceptively strong one on one abilities slip through to the rookie draft?

Sorry, don't agree. From the Casey games I watched this year I haven't seen anything like a dominant performance from either Fullarton or Verrall, particularly against the stronger often non AFL listed rucks. Samson Ryan from Richmond absolutely smashed them both earlier this year

A great win! With the result was beyond a doubt in the 4th, seeing not a noted sledger in Lingers get stuck into Nik Cox summed up the intensity and competitive spirit within this group ATM
