Haven't seen a player evade tacklers by standing still as consistently as Chol does it.

His ability to get the ball from his hand to foot in tight conditions for a bloke his size is awesome. He's like a cat.

Right rfeference but in wrong context, more so when he appears to be coasting and
next minute takes 3 or 4 steps and lays a tackle.
His speed is very deceptive and has created many a goal this year.

It's not just his running speed also - I had mentioned it after the Lions game that I saw him on the deck after a crashed pack which the Lions then proceeded to rebound out of our forward 50. He had sprung to his feet in an instant and chased down the Lions player rapidly. At the risk of sounding like Luke Darcy - Chol's athleticism is insane.
 
Hope he kicks a few today. My son calls him the Cholman Medalist 😂
One of our boys in the post-game said that Sam has dubbed him “Chols-Royce”.

Must be good to know your coach is pumping you up by naming you after something iconic and prestigious.

Others just know him as Cholly Farmer

Haha that's so funny, I've been joking that his laidback nature and freakish ability reminds me a lot of a West Indian cricketer.
The Windies were also nightclub specialists and I reckon Mabior’s dance moves out of the middle are getting more extravagant by the game. We’re so much fun to watch at the moment, literally from the tallest to the smallest there’s something unique on offer.

It is funny you mention the Windies as I thought of Chris Gayle with a bandana had rolled through Waverley last week when they they were doing that retro stuff. Cool cat in Cholly.

Tom Morris said this morning on SEN that Chol is on 400,000 this year and next and 500,000 for the last two years of his contract with a trigger of 17 games in his fourth year to play on for a fifth season. Seems like a bargain in hindsight.
Should have some big bonuses lined up next year
