Rnd 15 vs St Kilda @ SCG

Is he the best second year player in the competition right now? Not that there is any award for that, it's still kinda remarkable for someone taken at pick 30something.

Well, he was awarded best first year player and I don't think he's gone backwards. He's probably actually improved a bit, since he seems to have been given more of a roving commission. Although he's yet to have a 3 Brownlow vote game, I tend to think one of those is not far off. But I'm not aware of any of his contemporaries going past him.

In time, one of the key forwards like Ugle-Hagan, McDonald or Thilthorpe might bulk up and go past him? But then again, after another pre-season in the gym, Errol's likely to spend more time as an in and under midfielder, and consequently, rack up the sort of possession numbers that win awards.

While we are in admiration for Errol mode, I still recall him being first in to help Joey Kennedy when he went down, and then first in pulling the opposition players away....

Exactly , he is a leader already . Chad also was the first to give it to the saints after Parker got his head ripped off on the weekend . Great characters

I thought you didn't notice hugs and such acts of kinship ...in previous posts you would have said what else is he meant to do

Whats that got to do with anything ? Not talking about hugs , talking about sticking up for teammates and showing care and concern if somethings happened

It is related just like hugs show the closeness of the players and the support for each other which you dismissed in previous posts

I think I'll give up

There was a game a few weeks ago when we came from behind. It was Errol who stepped up and said “follow me boys.” And they did. It was some hard in and under stuff in a wing…I turned to my wife who is generously watching games with me, and said “that’s our next captain.” My second favorite thing about this game was Stephen’s stepping up…wife is going “Who’s he? He’s really good!” But my favorite, favorite thing was Ollie Florent. What a genius our coach is - he’s shown bits and pieces and lots of potential for what, four years? And then on Saturday “Bang” - he is the the ridge-didge full blown deal. Wow how fabulous.
