Re: Welcome Matthew Arnot

Keep your fingers crossed but when guys are deemed a little slow in TAC it gets really highlighted in AFL. AFL is a supreme/extreme level of footy.
 
Re: Welcome Matthew Arnot

Man, I mean I can be as bright as anyone, but calling a surprise pick 55 in a very weakened draft Cousins like is a bit too wishful I think.

Leysey has probably spat his sherry all over his keyboard reading this.

My reference to Cousins was about his persona and level of confidence. I have no idea about his ability. I've seen the highlight vid once on the day after the draft and can't even remember it!

A certainty to be better than Leigh Matthews.

I reckon Leigh Matthews would have been picked up at around number 55 in the draft these days.
He didn't look too athletic and probably wouldn't have tested that well at draft camp.

LOL. You reckon Mick Nolan would have been invited to draft camp?
 
Re: Welcome Matthew Arnot

Mick would have had the caterers quaking in their boots!

What a level-headed kid Matthew sounds like, really good interview.

If he doesn't like 'biscuits' let's just call him 'Arnie' because he's got the guns loaded :eek:

Just saw his interview for the first time. Wow he has a steely look and a swagger about him that reminds me of Ben Cousins. Very confident young man, let's hope he can play to anywhere near Cuz's level.

I see more of a Tom Hislop then Cousins.
But good luck to the kid. :fing32
 
Re: Welcome Matthew Arnot

In all seriousness, the person his interview reminded me the most of was Nathan Buckley.
