The young Tiger that caught David King’s eye most was 20-year-old Tom Brown who had 16 disposals at 87 per cent efficiency to go with 11 intercepts.

The former No.17 draft pick stands out most for his beautiful kicking style and ability to find a target, and King expects Brown to develop into an absolute star with the more opportunities he gets.

“They’ve got a ripper in Tom Brown,” King said on SEN Breakfast.

“He's going to be a beauty, the son of (former Geelong player) Paul Brown. He had 11 intercepts for the night.

“He's got class, he's got poise, he actually makes the right decision every time.

“I know he's a beautiful kick and everyone talks about his actual kicking efficiency and his style.

“But he can kick the ball 50 metres off one or two steps - he’s one of those guys - and he sees things that others don't.

“I think he's going to be an absolute star. What a steal he is at the selection they got him.”

Thought his kicking was dreadful in the first half- asked at the time -is it a myth like Shortsteps but he proved me wrong in the second...Goulden-like, hell even Darren Jarman would've been proud....still has things to work on though,...disagree that he always makes the right decisions .....doesn't always go when it's his turn and can get himself into a bit of a panicky tangle when the opposition closes in on him....

He has style, he has flair, he was there! 
That's how he became the Brownnny ....

Great summation

Agree on all points

Seems like the media have latched on to him being a beautiful kick. Seems like every time he touches it, it gets mentioned lol

There was 1 effort in the third where the ball was turned over and he didn’t run back anywhere near hard enough. Will give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he was gassed. If it wasn’t for the 9 day break followed by the bye I’d consider managing him against the hawks but he should be good to go.

Still excited by him, looks like he could be a top player.
