By passing air through his vocal cords, resonating his throat and manipulating his articulatory organs?
That'd be quite a spectacle!

That it would indeed but I was more so referring to the fact he sounds exactly like Luke Hodge when he speaks.

Sam's from a town called Whitefoord in central Tassie. Population 59. The other famous footballer from Whitefoord is none other than Royce Hart.
Give the boy No 4.
Since Young, Its taken a while for a player to debut this season. Banks IN for Short and/or Hugo. Hope him and Bauer get a few games.

congrats Sam, play well and enjoy the experience.
Bout time.
In my opinion has been the most consistent of all our 2022 rookies since coming to the club.
He’s really blossomed in the past 6-7 games and his confidence of demanding the ball has been great.
Elite ball user by foot and he is going to tear some teams up with his kicking in the future.

Never hang the debutant, will learn a lot about what's required but unfortunately his nerves are showing badly. Will be better off in his 2nd game but probably not ready yet this year.

Definitely can't blame Banksy in his first game, definitely nervy getting used to how fast the pace of AFL is versus VFL. Experience will be better for it when Sydney is putting on so much pressure.
We aren't contending
Play the young fella
Fair point. Probably not ready yet, but get the development into him.

Thought he was really good in the 3rd qtr especially
Killed some contests and saved a big goal especially in the contact of how close the game was
Experience makes people
Let alone footballers
Kids gunna be a jet

Felt he was unlucky with the howlers he made. The Rioli handball one was a poor handball to Banks that deflected off a shin of the Swans and shut down any time and space he may have had.
The buddy one he was unlucky too. You're taught in huniors never to turn back into the corridor when getting the ball in defence. He turned boundary side and just happened to run into a Swan.
Showed plenty of fight and his effort against Buddy to save a goal will give him a massive boost.
Showed that there is soemthing there.

His kicking looks very clean bar the initial kick out

Had a bit of a stinker. Needs a few games to get a feel for the level.
Started poorly but built into it so credit to him. Looked rushed and his usual skills by foot wasn't there. Plenty to work with.
