Is he supposed to be a ruck?

If so would be good if he could make a contest in the ruck


Thinking this too. Couldn't do worse than Chol

 Donuts :lol I reckon I could’ve played a better game than this kid.

Who made this decision? I think the selection committee have been drinking their own bath water.

This was a complete balls up.

I think this is the worse debut ever.  :rollin

Leave the kid alone a lot to like about him despite tonight. Reckon we have a long term good un and im glad and hope every time he shows enough they have the wisdom to get games into him.

If given a choice between him and say CCJ i will back in Ryan especially as a ruckman.

Pretty sure Jonathan Brown got duck eggs on debut as well... :shh

...hopefully Ryan is just the Reverse Dean Polo... :shh :shh

He’s been doing well at VFL level but it’s a big jump and he is a long way off

Very poor selection and it really cost us tonight

Would have been better with 1 ruck and mis size played instead of Ryan and even CJ

Marshall is one of the top ruckman in the comp. and with Ryder in tandem they carry St Kilda. Throwing a kid on debut against them was a huge ask. Poor Samson was schooled.

No, he was actually terrible. The worst debut I’ve ever seen and that includes Sideshowbob Vickery. Look I hope he comes good but he was way way out of his league and shouldn’t of been played as he’s clearly not ready yet. What on earth was the selection committee thinking playing him up against Ryder and Marshall on a wet and rainy Friday night in the middle of winter?
Unlike yourself I tell it like i see it.  :rollin

Following in the footsteps of Chol & CCJ -  i.e. will get his second game in about two or three years..... :shh

Yep he had a shocker

But to ridicule and laugh about it at the kids expense is IMHO poor form

I really feel for him too. Got cast out to the wolves tonight. Just another example of the arrogance of the Club.

He wasn't ready and ot showed. Might of got away with it if Nank was playing but he wasn't

And yes Dio, you are correct Jonathan Brown got duck eggs in first game.
