... its not long before we see him in action.

It won't be long before we start building his 4 hour highlights video.

I think Munkara will play football like Yann Tierson plays the piano.

I love player comparisons.

I love you Yoda. You're the sort of person who was created to share a day fishing with!!

I would 100% agree. I know it seems odd but I love spending time on the banks of a river for 6+ hours with my reel in the water

I love to get my rod out too.

I will be happy if he just gets through the VFL season and works on his consistency. I suspect he is going to be a bit like Walla and will need a couple of years to bring the basics in line with the X factor stuff. He is a long , long way back fitness / stamina wise and mental preparation wise. The plus side is he has Walla around this year and Dean Rioli on the board who can help him work through it.

Don't come begging for him to be "my boy" when he starts tea-bagging defenders as he pulls the ball down from the heavens this year.

The queue for my boy is not short

He’s mine damnit!

 

[fairbump_playon]

He’s mine damnit!

It’s like saying that you claim the essence of life as yours ha ha.

Munkara will be the most exciting player in footy if he puts it all together.

Impossible to not be impatient. But I guess we better wait for him to star in our 2024 flag year.

 

[fishardansin]

He's mine. Don't bring out the keyboard warrior in me. You DO NOT want to be on the receiving end of an all-caps message from me. I'm also prepared to get violent at a big footy catch-up if one of those ever happens again.

Don't take him away from me. I'll never be able to love again.

Sorry we redrew and you got Ned Cahill.

I’ll trade you for Dylan van Unen if you want?

So, none of the match sim reports has three or four paragraphs fawning over A. Munkara. Should we be worried? Or should we congratulate the media department for keeping the progress of the GOAT secret?

His running the other day was impressive

His running the other day was impressive

10km which l, if my maths is correct, is 5 x 2km.

2x5
Or 100/10

In the modified group?

In the modified group?

Yes although now I hear he has minor hamstring tightness. He has pretty much been in the modified group all pre season as his fitness levels where well down.
