I tipped Durds in Thy's breakout player thread at the start of the season thread. Me and a couple of othes did too.

Was really impressed with glimpses I saw last year in the seniors and occasionally tye VFL, I felt and still do that he is far more courageous and mature/AFL ready than his age/weight or frame would suggest

His chasing and pressure acts in the forward line are going to be as valuable for us as his impact on the scoreboard.

Well deserved.

A few notes after chatting with BT:

He's pretty quick for 1.98m
Pretty young looking for a 25yr old.
And pretty disciplined for an ex north player.

I like his nickname "Corey" too!

Congrats Sam! Not sure how you snuck into the eligibility criteria though!

:p:p

Kade Simpson shared his secrets.
 
Dwayne Russell: “And who do you reckon is the best player to come out of Golden Grove, Corey? Shane Edwards?”

“Yeah maybe….the Menzel brothers were pretty good. I’d probably have to say Edwards at the moment….but we’ll just wait until I’ve finished my career”

Didn’t know he had it in him, good on ya Corey

Probably but that's beside the point, at any rate we have drafted plenty of those in the past and we both know it. Once bitten... and all that.

Once bitten you reserve the right to be immediately critical of every decision our recruiters make?

Not sure that's how the saying goes.

No, just most of them. If we've had 15-20 years of basically being rubbish at it before 2015, I reserve the right to be cynical. If that gets up your nose, I don't give a crap. I thought you were supposed to be a mod, and you go around baiting people?
 
Crows absolutely were filthy on us, they defintley were going to take Durds with their next pick

And we got Carroll a few picks later

It's ok to put your hand up and say you got that one wrong. You know that right? It won't kill you.

Sometimes as mods we need to roll our sleeves up and take out the trash.

you could be mistaken for thinking that interview was before his 250th game and not for a rising star nomination......what a mature & well articulated young man. Had a smile on my face the whole interview, very very happy he found his way to the blues. Absolute gem

A gun in the making.

Very early I know, but am I alone in sensing some strong leadership vibes from him too?

Spot on. This is why the comparison to Boomer Harvey fits so well to me. The attitude that he plays with and the work ethic just screams "come with me boys."
