Player Watch #6: George Wardlaw - two-time RS nominee ('23 &'24) - The Warlord/ The Boss - out vs RFC w/ delayed concussion

[SmallRoo]

How good
Imagine him with another 2 preseasons.
Will be an absolute maniac that you can’t tackle.

 

[FootySmartSimpson]

Manic.

[ArchKing Carey]

He's literally one year behind the other draftees with his prep. That was an awesome game

 

[Roos92]

Long as he stays fit will be better than anyone on that $ydney list in a couple years. We are the real winners today with 2 potential A grade stars running around.

One of the better m ‘low possessions’ games I’ve seen for a midfielder. Loved what he does without the ball. Midfielders waltzing out of stoppages will be a thing of the past!

 

[amaz199]

Amazing debut

 

[bennymate]

Holy shit! Wait until he gets a full tank

 

[bhoysdontcry67]

Wardlaw. Sheezel.

Get used to these names

 

[Engimal v3]

A few flubs, but still a great debut. His effort is unquestionable.

 

[koshari]

This is exactly the kind of player we're lacking.

An absolute dog in the contest and gives second, third, fourth, fifth efforts, tackles all day and wins the ball. This is what a footballer's footballer is. He just gets right into it and gives it his all the whole game.

We haven't seen a player like this in years. Too many coasters, finally someone who can drive the whole game is here.

will demand the blokes around him bring the same effort going forward.

 

[JUST NORTH]

Manic.

 

[Flawed Genius]

He is what JHF was supposed to be, except he isn't a coward.

 

[ferball]

More tackles than anyone else on the ground in his first ever game of AFL footy.

****en hell.

 

[Caracas]

Best debut since, since, since… Harry Sheezel. Braydon will complete the hat trick.

He had probably 10 taps and 1% that wouldn’t on the stat sheet that occurred at crucial times. Super influential.

Focus, focus…

Absolute jet. With him and Sheez you have the makings of a great midfield

 

[Hearts to hearts]

Anyone who bought a #6 shirt last year would be delighted (as long as they didn’t get it signed).

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Animal.

Anyone who bought a #6 shirt last year would be delighted (as long as they didn’t get it signed).

That surely is some quirk of a collector’s item: a GW North shirt signed by Port up and comer and all-round mummy’s boy JHFF.

 

[Harpergun]

Manic is an apt description. Loved what he did without the ball.
Anyone else froth over a starting midfield of Sheez, warlord and LDU? I don’t actually see a weakness in it

 

[Roostorm]

Going to love this guys progression. Scary to think today’s first glimpse was after an eternity on sidelines. I’m jumping on the bus with this guy.

 

[kangatragic]

Wow that was impressive. How hard does he attack the ball. Ran out of gas late. Wait to he gets a few preseasons under his belt

 

[JUST NORTH]

Manic is an apt description. Loved what he did without the ball.
Anyone else froth over a midfield of these 2 and LDU? I don’t actually see a weakness in it

add Thomas into that mix in the center square
