Yeah he's been a really good find. I thought he might of been a fringe player, but I guess not :)
Well done to him.

We had lots of heart from most of our players tonight. Poor execution let us down yet again.

But yes we have scored with Roberton. Will be a 200 gamer for us.

It is great to have another running HB with poise and an accurate kick.

Him, Geary and wright are my 'new' favourite players to watch this season. Hardly seen a mistake between them, and try as hard as anyone.

Didnt he want to come back to victoria with his young family to be closer to family?

Was never, ever this confident at freo. Man he takes the game on. Brave footballer. Will get caught now and then but sheesh he can use it.

Bloke has poise, is solid and reliable and fit.

In short, has class.

Already taking over from Fisher as the general in the backline, with the same ability to read the play. Timely passing of the mantle.

Brilliant game I was critical of the club selecting him but he has been a complete revelation.

We will be well set for defenders.

Sammy Fish is getting on but we still have

Dempster
Gwilt
Stanley - who will come good
Gilbo - bad luck re the knee as he has been OK this year
Roberton - who is a player already
Simpkin.

however all about the same size

We need to get a stopper who can take a Cloke.


Lance or James??
