Anyway, welcome Blake.
I had a couple of Acres once. Had to switch from briefs to boxers.

Can't believe he's played for 2 clubs before us, he seems Carlton through and through.

It's also pretty outrageous the tank and run he has, he's like 193 cm and 92kg (according to Footywire).
Also amazingly I must have missed something along the way all this time. Where does his nickname Sheriff come from?

Nickname from Freo that stuck. He used to collect all the player's fines (late for training, dropped marks at training etc) and hence got called "The Sheriff".
The most magnificent 4mins and 15 sec you’ll ever see

The best of them is the pure crown noise getting louder with each kick.
From when Ollie marks the ball and kicks to Docherty, no Blues fan at the ground sat down until at least 10 min after the siren. Like nothing I've ever witnessed at the footy. So glad I got to share it with my 2 teenage sons. Etched in our brains and hearts forever.
After Sherrifs signature yesterday I got home from work and watched the last quarter of that final, just mwahhh

Same. Nothing I’ve experienced at the footy before and shared it with my boys and best mate. My youngest cried. Will be etched in our family memory for a very long time.

Well deserved extension, great news for him and the Club
Ha ha, true.
I can see why GC don’t place full value on their picks because they have had so many gifted to them from AFL house and therefore have lost all sense of “trade smarts “ but for the life of me I can’t understand Freo’s nuffery!!!!!

BT’s call makes me laugh every time!
“Acres, he never misses, he wins all the time”
His voice is a weird mashup of enthusiastic excitement given the dying stages of the game and the agony he is feeling cos it’s the blues being the phoenix rising against all odds!!!
Salty tears and all that!!
I can’t remember but doesn’t he basically insult the Carlton crowd after the win as being brainless or something??

The guy is so consistent. You know what you’re getting every week. His only real weakness is his kicking but even that is really very solid now. 67 percent kick efficiency for a guy who gets over 400 metres gained and plenty of contested ball is really very good. The odd wtf kick. That’s it.
I wouldn’t swap him for any other full time winger in the afl (Errol plays plenty on ball and you can ****ing have Josh Daicos).

His uncle would run the 1,500 at school and interschool events and win by at least 3-400 m, so it's in the genes.
Yeah, I'd hazard a guess that he's been given a bonus for next year because we realised what a steal he's been, and he deserves more.
I believe he has been upgraded to all you can eat and bottomless cups of coffee.

His match saving AND match winning efforts in last year's finals wins v Swans and Dees will not be forgotten for a long long time. You know what you'll get from him every game and can never question his endeavour. Well deserved contract extension. Thanks Blacres.
Yes, agree and hope so. Well deserved.
always seems to be in the right place at the right time to chop out defence or kick the sealer. not always with the right disposal though if that time is running down the wing. but you know come the end of the game he'll be bobbing up for an important touch. what a steal.
