I reckon he looks like Ezra Bridger from Star Wars Rebels.
Guess the question is, do we give him #35, or do we give it to McLarty? And if we give Josh #35, do we let him keep it after his first year? (All depending on if he actually wants the number of course)
I don't know how good he'll end up, but watching his highlights package I noticed he seems to have great balance, like his old man, and is a good decision-maker and a beautiful kick. He's probably too slightly built to play senior footy just yet, but once he beefs up a bit, he looks to have all the attributes needed to make it. I can't wait to have a young Daicos, Brown and Moore playing together.

I would have to agree swoop. Dids was one of my favourites but when compared to The Macedonian Marvel he simply dd not compare. Even if he attains Did's skill level he will be champion.

I had the same reaction. You poor kid ! Hopefully he'll be given the license to just do his best and loved for who he is, not his name.
As the son of a VFL footballer myself (not a famous one), I am more conscious than most that genes come from two sides. My footballing genes did not come from my old man, and I hope Josh got enough from the great man to make a go of it at this level.
