Will be good to see how he goes playing majority game time rucking

This year whilst being sh!t to date is fast tracking players like Ryan , Cumberland , Clarke , Sonsie and hopefully a few more

Glass half full
do you think Miller might do the rucking vs a smalller Williams instead?
Samson is better up forward.
Similar to the Swans match vs Ladhams where an undersized Miller can get by

Play him every game for the rest of the year , We need to get as much games as we can into him in the next 2 years

This kid has what it takes and will be a massive weapon once he has 50-60 games and 5-6 kgs muscle
I admit I was sceptical on Samson earlier in the season. Looked lost a lot of the time IMHO, and then was getting to the ball but just wasn't smart or strong enough to compete. He's getting the smarts real quick and now the needs the muscle more than the 50-60 games I reckon.

He was the one thing that made me happy today. I've always believed he could make it as a ruck/forward. Needs to be played all year with the odd rest. I love his competitiveness as he dances around waiting for the umpire to bounce the ball in the centre. Add another 20 kg of muscle and look out!

100% was putting on a silver platter and the midfield wanted styrofoam

Midfield coach needs to get his head ripped off asap
 
I remember Knightmare being a fan of his in his draft year - kudos to you Knightmare.
Best case scenario is Richmond’s version of Paul Salmon 😁
Well done to Richmond recruiting staff!
 
Today was a great guide to how he's tracking with Williams at a similar stage of his career.

Tired late, but he stuck it right out, loved his ruck work for the most part, he's well above average as that FWD/Ruck type even this early on. Dare I say, have to go right back to pre-garden stake Ottens for anything this exciting from a FWD/Ruck we drafted.
 
How much bullshit was Jordan Lewis talking about his ruckwork today? Absolute dribbler.

Another good game from Samson.

Lewis unlike alot of the other pundits I feel gets our game the most.

he was pointing out how predictable his tap work was and he was right. too many times have oppo just waited and got the clearances of our hit outs. Even Nank does this.
 
He’s coming along very well and quickly. His ruckwork is already quality and we seem to have the balance of splitting his time fwd and ruck just right so that we don’t over cook him or leave him in starvation corner
