Not afraid to put in second, even third efforts which is great to see.

Reminds me of a fast Varcoe or Jadyn Stephenson with a Terminator attitude.

At 186 cm & 88 kilo he bench presses 140 kilo. “That’s crazy” says Crisp

“He has so much pace too”
The Bounce or The Sunday Footy Show should do a bench press competition over the season across the whole comp during the mid-season break.

I recall Dunstall might still hold a record at the Hawks? Along with Riccuito & Gehrig, all 150kg+.
Two of our biggest were Travis Cloke and Jesse White. Dane Swan pound for pound was reportedly the strongest in the league? Of the current crop, Mihocek would look likely.

My exact words to Mrs WPT last night.

Her response: “Do I care”?

She’s an Essendon supporter.

Is there any truth in the rumor that McCreery is just Jarryd Blair with a pony tail?

Are we finally starting to see the value of a defensive beast in the forward line who kicks the odd goal or two. I always felt like Blair was unfairly maligned and was incredibly valuable to us when we were good (but not so good when he was asked to be our number 1 option later in his career).

We focused on Ball and Jolly, but was Blair the reason we won the 2010 flag!
