Maybe he plays his best when he sees red, black and white all around.

Anyone who can kick 60 metre bombs off two steps gets a big tick from me.

Yep - if he is going to take his game up to the next level its going to happen in the next 18 months. Will be watching with anticipation.

He's played 36 games in the past 2 seasons… in the best side in the comp…

But keep moaning… it's something you're good at I guess.

How many homegrown 22 year olds have we got that have played 56 or more games champ? I reckon if we snagged Ablett you would argue he was too old and doesn't fit our hair profile

Twitter calls him a beanpole. Seems to have less meat on him than a Chicken McNugget. Just what we need, another player who can get brushed off the ball easily.
Oh well, at least he can kick 60m bombs. Will play outside the contest, our grunts will get in, get the ball for him. Another one dimensional player.
Destined to be great mates with TDL.

Haha this gave me a good laugh, oh wait, your serious?

Next you'll tell me Tom Curren didn't get drafted onto a main list in his draft year because he was too skinny!

I googled a him when I first heard about the trade and whoever said he is a beanpole is a flat out moron.

He looks pretty solid to me

Fair dinkum; some people have forgotten how to be a supporter!

Doesn't matter about Big Ben, helicopter kicks. beanpoles etc

He's a Saint now. He's one of us.

Welcome Shane and all the best :)
