Jacob Townsend [merged]
wayne:
He got Higgins and Ziebell too, and he flies in at the centre bounce looking to kill someone almost every time! :lol
Slipper:
I love the way Towner looks like he is absolutely stuffed, head bowed slightly, hands on hips sucking in the deep breaths, then as soon as his opponent is in range, he gives them a sharp bump, whack with a forearm or a hard shove.
You can see it really gets under the opposition's skin. Great to watch. Like in the Grand Final when he does it to Lever in the last qtr and Hartigan gets upset and gives Towner an elbow to the back. Towner pays him the perfect insult, he doesn't even slightly react. Hartigan looks basically like a twit, and is clearly not focussed on the job.

Reminds me of Hampson but without the action after the "absolutely stuffed, head bowed slightly, hands on hips sucking in the deep breaths" bit
one-eyed:
Towner is averaging a goal with every second kick.
