Sydney Stack

Stacky's gunna take his game, to The Punt Road End
He's gunna ride, til he can't ride no more
He's not gunna play down back
He's gunna play in attack
His hair is matted black
His boots are black to match
He's gunna ride, til he can't ride no more

Thanks Sydney for giving this old dog a lot of joy.
Sweat by inner circle?
 
Bloody stupid match committee, leaving Stacka play in the back line for half a season. What a bloody waste.
What can one say about the Stacka but FMD the kid is knicker wetting good.

Sheer brilliance throwing the kid an opportunity in the supplementary draft.
 
Some of the kids that come from unorthodox family backgrounds have very good reasons for why they are not as fit as Private school kids and city boys, who get things handed to them.

Maybe he comes from a remote background and didn’t have a parent who could (or was able to) commit to driving him to training several times each week? Maybe he made the State team despite some of these things, because of his natural talent? We don’t know about these things but the clubs do.

If Dimma is going to take him in before they draft him, it is likely that the club wants to look at how he adapts to the professionalism of AFL footy before they commit to him.

It’s a free look.
Well summed up my man.

Blind Freddy could see when stack was pushed forward that he would star,we have seen it in his backline play kicking 3 goals from defence,with his evasiveness, poise, skills, mental toughness,will eventually play mid field and win a brownlow.
 
Our backline looked worse without him.

But we finally kicked over 100 points. Hmmmm.

By the way, there was another big Stack bump in this game, that seemed to be passed over by the commentary. On the forward line, just before Caddy's goal, I expected him to go in for the tackle. Instead, got down hard and clean enough to bump the Saint bloke so completely he threw the ball away, setting up a goal.

He's flawless on, in, near and around the ball. How many games has he played?
 
How good is this guy.

Plays 11 games as a small defender and potentially in the AA team in that position.

Goes forward today and is immense, 4 goals and looked terrific down there.

We are blessed with this kid.
 
If he doesn’t win the rising star the award is a farce Walsh is a turn over merchant

I think we've found an absolute ripper. I love the players with swag. They tend to love the big games. Sydney has finals star written all over him.

Watching the highlights, I loved he hip and shoulder he handed out with 5:20 left in the 3rd. So quick, I had to watch it a few times to understand what happened.

Crazy Days, the RFC has never had talent like this just land in our lap before.

Geez I would love it if we won the flag in a miracle end to the year with Stackman and Pickett dominant ...........................both whom we got for free !!

There is only one player better in the team - Dusty. Stacks rookie season is the best I can remember for a Tiger - including Dusty.
