    I must admit I was surprised for the 2 year extension, however it is excellent that he has exceeded expectations.

    After Talia went down and his off field shopping we needed someone to put their hand up, and Aliir has raised his very high!

    Well done young man!

    My first time too to see him too. I thought that something along the lines of "Cheer cheer Aliir Aliir" would be appropriate.

    Great effort by him. He has done nothing wrong since given an opportunity in the seniors. Fingers crossed his confidence and the way he plays can last through a finals campaign. Maybe, just maybe, we have the next Alex Johnson - someone who slots right in and performs above their age and experience. We really have been blessed this year with our new team members being able to fit right in and contribute to the team winning.

    Interesting that we essentially got Aliir for Jesse White.

    It's very hard to live in a studio apartment in San Jose with a man who's learning to play violin. That's what she told the police when she handed them the empty revolver.

    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)
