Arryn does not have a big head, he would be still pinching himself......would be a little intimidated i would think.....but hopefully he just settles and enjoys the moment.....and executes...
Going out to bat in a gf is quite a thrill, particularly facing the new rock....but if you let it get hold of you, it can have a negative effect.....
Deep breath, look around and take in the surroundings...another deep breath....think a positive thought, and narrow the focus..... And execute the skill set required....

He just asked for the jumper because it was free, they did not choose him for it....they are just numbers....
Arryn had 3 posessions tonight.....one goal....started ok, his opponent led him to the ball 4 times in the last quarter, and took 2 uncontested marks....
He showed that he can kick.....
Although, he was ignored three times......bit of port adelaide syndrome

yeah, and had the confidence to have the shot from 55.BigMart wrote:Arryn had 3 posessions tonight.....one goal....started ok, his opponent led him to the ball 4 times in the last quarter, and took 2 uncontested marks....

the only problem is that i can't see how he's going to get much of it to kick the goals. he's too small to take big marks and not agile enough to pop up around packs. he'll only really get it on the lead, and given the way we go inside 50 (slowly) that might be tough more often than not.
still, he's got a lot good about him.

The kick on him got a couple of mentions on radio during the week. His second one showed them to be right. Nice to see a new recruit who can do this for a change.
Look forward to him in a few years time with a few pre seasons under his belt and see what damage he can do with that foot

There was a chase down attempt on Yarran in the 1st half that showed he can move. Kicking is a lock. Natural spring. Certainly has potential and not too concerned about possessions in AFL Game 1.
Only have to look at Armo to see how one can develop with 30 odd games experience.
Just waiting for commentators to take flight "SI-POSSSSSS"
Now for Ledger and Winmar.

Showed he could play at this level and compete.
Positives
Kicking for goal is awesome
Competes well when in the contest and got it front and centre which is half the battle in a marking contest down forward (lead to a cripps goal in the third).
Good speed andwroks hard at ground level. His tackle lead to the goal to gram that might have won us the game.
Is still very young and it was his first game!
Negatives
Not strong overhead just yet. Needs two years+ in the gym.
As mentioned he only got 3 touches.
His oppenent not only lead him to the ball several times but was instrumental in carltons rebound.
Got buffeted out of it too much.
But alot to work with and would like to see him play for the rest of the year.

He contested a couple of marking contests that brought the ball to ground. One ended up with a goal.
Game was serviceable. They could have kicked to him a few more times than just BOMBING inside fifty late.
You gotta admit...his goal was an absolute beauty.

"Now the ball is loose, it gives St. Kilda a rough chance. Black. Good handpass. Voss. Schwarze now, the defender, can run and from a long way".....
Was wrapped with his game... Not statistically, or impact wise, but what he showed, how he moved...
He will be a player, and very soon, but must now start to work even harder...
I really hope he doesn't get dropped for a Gamble or Peake... Must play the next 5 games... His experience at the top level this year will fast track his development, something Ross has not done to any young Saint since his time as coach...
