In the first quarter I thought he got absolutely towelled and was thinking here we go, Flossy's turn for a shocker. He kept digging in and got better and I thought that when he got absolutely smashed in that marking contest showed huge courage. That's team lifting stuff.

Has gone to a new level this year, had a quiet one yesterday but as the game heated up he got better and more sure. Leader

Yep

Thought his 1st qtr was poor but in the 2nd half he went up a gear  :clapping

Thought he was among our best.

Very tough, fearless and got better as the game went on. Most of our first round picks are now starting to show very good signs and that's a good thing for the longer term.

Absolutely fearless. One of the few players on our list who I know will never pull out of a contest fearing physical harm.

Inspirational to his teammates who always know the effort he will be giving.

Isn't that the most important quality that defines leadership?
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

Was relatively poor I thought

  :o

Got better as the game went on as everyone said but he is usually just so rock solid. Reckon he'll have a blinder next week, just seems like the kind of guy that will want to come out and not play like that again :thumbsup

Love the way he lets himself get turned in a tackle in the direction of where our outlet guy is and always gets those hands free. Takes real composure and confidence in your core strength.
