Re: #21: Dyson Heppell - Our "next big thing"

Is the next Judd #18?

Was watching their game on the weekend with the sound down and saw said player get run down with the ball a couple of times.

Re: #21: Dyson Heppell - Our "next big thing"

Was that "Judd with pace" or am I thinking of someone else?

 

[IriDiuM]

Then some pretentious North supporter will start mouthing 'Dyson Heppell' at Dodoro no doubt.

Wonder if that same guy was mouthing "Lachie Hansen" at Dodoro a few years earlier...

Can somebody tell me what that article's about?

For once I'm actually curious as to what's behind that pay wall.

Re: #21: Dyson Heppell - Not in the top 5 Rising Stars of 2012

It's just based on upside. Top 5 are...

Sam Reid
Jack Darling
Zac Smith
David Swallow
Luke Shuey

Heppell is 6th.

The thing is, it's not from a single year - it's from those who got a nom last season...

Lists are absurd at the best of times, but that one is even more silly.

Highlights what a great year it was, super strong. I'm tipping Shuey and Heppell will make him eat his words before even June hits.

Re: #21: Dyson Heppell - Not in the top 5 Rising Stars of 2012 according to Mark Stevens

Just wait till he's stronger, covering more ground and delivering inside 50 more often.

Re: #21: Dyson Heppell - Not in the top 5 Rising Stars of 2012 according to Mark Stevens

It makes sense I guess. If you are going to irrationally predict the fall of a club looking at nothing but upside you probably see the same thing in the players.

Heppell wasn't fit, he wasn't strong and he wasn't experienced. He used is natural gifts to player as a sweeper and win a rising star in the process. The club is now looking to move him into the midfield.

Re: #21: Dyson Heppell - Not in the top 5 Rising Stars of 2012 according to Mark Stevens

With a first up season like Heppell had, it's only fair to assume that there are other young guys who have more scope for improvement.

At the end of the day it's just one guys opinion.

Re: #21: Dyson Heppell - Not in the top 5 Rising Stars of 2012 according to Mark Stevens

Hep sounds like a Mensa member in comparison to Cloke.

There's something oddly endearing about Cloke, though. Almost as though he's completely aware that he's an intellectual mouse and that he's going to work within that.

Two amazing things about the Cloke performance, or two highlights rather:

1. If you fold any note of legal tender, any Australian note of legal tender, in from each side, the outer sides match up! Yes Travis, that's because they're all printed on a big sheet and then sliced up. You numpty.

2. Travis, when describing Dane Swan's new tats, pointed to the back of his hand, identifying the "palm", and then proceeded to point to where Swan hasn't got any tattoos, around the wrist region... near the "collar". I shudder to think where he believes the human, male penis to be.

As a bonus, he's got a tattoo of an infinity sign behind his ear, because life goes on and that reminds him of that fact. I daresay he pointed towards that area, asking that it be put on his "ankle".

Anyway... Hep was good, but then he's been fairly composed in all of his media appearances. Good country lad, as he says.

Speaking of, I know it's particularly unfortunate circumstances, but TFS works far better without Lyon. I typically wouldn't watch it or would turn off fairly quickly (although Lyon's Stynes testimonial was quite powerful), but it was almost back to working on a base level with just Brayshaw, Newman, and panel.
