Welcome Welcome To Freo Josh Corbett!!!

[Snuffaluphagus]

No brainer for mine, while I think Logue is still a better player up forward, getting Josh to play the same role or even just be handy depth at 350k-400k less makes sense. Clearly a natural forward with a specific set of skills you can see working.

I really really like dem mitts. Obviously not huge but looks like he can mark just as well as a KP. Oh, and he's really gonna love playing in front of a crowd...

 

[Randomizor]

The one area we need depth in and we actively did something towards addressing it. A win for mine.

 

[holy diver]

The salary cap pressure = moneyball recruits like this. The club has had a bit of success with this strategy as well.

We have to save the $$$ for Brayshaw & Serong.

Highlight reel looks okay. The club has need for the role he plays. The opportunity is there for him.

Was Josh a fringe player at the Suns?

 

[Tbonefreo]

I got him and Burgess confused.

A mayne/mundy moment if you will

 

[ignoramus]

Wonder what his pressure is like?

I know you're taking the piss, but the highlights package shows a couple of run-down tackles. Thing I liked the most was with the marks he took outside 50, where he instantly wheeled around and kicked I50 to his teammate's advantage.

To think that Gold Coast had King, Chol, Casboult, Burgess, and Corbett on their list this year. With King returning at the top of the list, this is a good move for both us and Josh.

 

[Cobbler]

Has he ever successfully flown for a mark on his chest and before hitting the ground completed a handball to someone running past?

had all of that lined up in his brain… just forgot to complete the first part.

Has Corbett got that level in him!?

 

[MadMundy]

Welcome Corbett!!!

Even if he doesn't end up being anymore than depth, he fills a need, we need more guys for when Taberner goes down. If he becomes anything more than depth for us I'd count that as a massive win.

 

[Kram]

I am confused. He appears to run toward the ballcarrier and then catch the ball in his outstretched hands. What are these things?

Wait not on an angle into the pocket to a 1 on 2?

 

[Grape Bear]

Sounds like a good kid, excited to get stuck in. Welcome, Josh

 

[Outshined]

It's probably to be expected but great to hear him speak so highly of everyone he's dealt with at the club.

RIP his liver at his bucks this weekend.

 

[Grape Bear]

His energy seems a lot more positive vs Logie’s first interview at you-know-where at ?half the salary?

 

[Bigger]

He kicked 27.12 in his last 17 games for the Suns. That would have him winning our goalkicking award.

 

[Grape Bear]

Also, very polished speaker, comfortable and personable interacting with the media. I hope he stakes a claim. Will be good competition to Sturty as well. Hope they push each other to be better.

 

[PowerToThePurpl]

Good bargain deal, needed a mature ager to help out our young marking forwards and speaks like he has his head screwed on. Looking forward to what he can do.

Nickname options:
‘Little Red’ Corbett

Prince

Saviour

The almighty

Where we at with nicknames??

I quite like ‘Chevy’ personally

 

[Tobiko]

I suspect we be seeing a lot of him next year. I like this! Good work Walls and Balls. Now, for Dogga and Tippa. We are going to wow them like the old Cal Bruton Wildcats (minus Tiny Pinder's bad sexual bizs)

 

[Kepfan]

Corvette you fokn legend welcome aboard!

 

[Supercoach Bargain]

Wonder what his pressure is like?

Switta, Sarge and Sonny have it covered.

 

[greatgatsby]

Looking at that highlights package, we need to bring the Suns reserves' (NEAFL?) commentator over with him. Would surely beat the WAFL dirge.

 

[se17enteen]

Interesting. Seems like Brayshaw is basically the captain of the club.

Lol Logue is a defender that has little forward craft which was why his job was to tag defenders. He could have become something but it would have taken multiple seasons. Corbett is a much better forward than Logue

I think when he plays, anyone expecting much more than what Logue gave us on average up forward is going to be disappointed

I'd have 100% more confident in his set shot though

Disagree. What we've lost is a reserve key defender. Corbett will be twice the forward Logue would ever be.
