Hardwick couldn't recognise a good player if it jumped out of his corn flakes.  He's probably thinking who the stuff is this kid and where did he come from.  Too busy having larfs at the vfl games than to watch the game.  When asked which kids youre excited about a couple of weeks ago he couldnt list any names.  He'll need to get to know Oleg and Jason during the week.
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

Thought it funny watching Markov (and George) running past teammates as an option and quickly making space for a return possession, it was like the other players hadnt seen anything like it  before and momentarily didnt know what to do.

So differen to the passengers we have been carrying who were quite happy to jog around with no real intent or urgency. Although a one on one with Hardwick should knock this aspect of his game out of him.

Agree with this. Markov moves very well across the ground and gets to the right positions.......this allows him to play better at the higher level. Short is the same :clapping

Just remember this over the next couple of weeks.
On debut he seemed to always be in the right spot. That's great but he may just have had one of those games where everything worked.
Please cut him a bit of slack if next week he has one of those games, as Jack said, he is always where the ball aint.

No problems. Markov gets to the right positions in the VFL also even though he doesn't get used mainly due to the quality of VFL listed players.

Neither did I. Thought I was at the wrong game.
What a terrific debut. Exactly what the side needs.

One of the most impressive debuts I have seen from a young Tiger for a while.
I must admit I didn't think he was even close to getting a game this year after watching him at seconds level.
Rapt for the kid and I hope he just keeps on getting better.
