A thing of real beauty...(Hunter Clark)
Evades 3 Bulldogs players to get a kick to his mate, Coff on the outside.
Hunter’s preferred is his right foot too!
Made it look easy.

Re: A thing of real beauty...
I'm so glad you posted that Pav.
One of the most unbelievable tricks I've seen played on a football ball field. Freakish. I nearly had an accident in my pants watching that live.

Re: A thing of real beauty...
Didn’t get a lot of time in the middle, I noticed. Ultimately that is where I see him playing.
Love that vision btw
The ability to stand up in a tackle (particularly from more than one player) is the mark of a very, very good footballer.

He had 4 players coming at him and still managed to get the kick away.

Re: Hunter Clark - Catch me if you can
Impressive highlights package. Noticed that with Zac Jones back he didn’t get a lot of time in the middle.

Re: Hunter Clark - Catch me if you can
He ploughs through two dogs, then with three and four still hanging off him and one arm free, he holds all their weight on one leg and snaps a precision kick to Coff just as number five arrives. He's making a mockery of finals
Gehrig emerged from scans yesterday saying he was "as sweet as a bun"

Re: Hunter Clark - Catch me if you can
Said it during the match that I think he's, of all our talented prospects, the one with the most potential. Probably on par with Maxy.
I've rarely seen a player with the ability to navigate a crowd like he does. It's beautiful to watch.
2021 is going to be really exciting.

You would like to think that he transitions to full-time midfielder from the get go next season.

Me too. As the old sporting cliche goes he just looks like he has more time than others around him.bigcarl wrote: ↑Tue 06 Oct 2020 7:21pmroskilde wrote: ↑Tue 06 Oct 2020 7:15pm Said it during the match that I think he's, of all our talented prospects, the one with the most potential.

Re: Hunter Clark - Catch me if you can
He has a destinct talent where he is just not afraid to be tackled.
So he has that split second more time, or can ride a tackle through and make his decision.
That one in the D50 where he attempts to run through THREE players and gets it out by a kick that was every bit as good as a handball just shows that he has no fear of that contact.
He'll still get it out.

Re: A thing of real beauty...(Hunter Clark)
Such an enjoyable thread to scroll through. What a phenomenal talent - and a joy to watch. Imagine how good he’ll be when he grows up.
Special mention to Jack Steele also standing up in a tackle st half back to the right of screen and getting his toe to the ball ... without that slight touch - the Dullbogs get a shot at goal.
Exciting times.

Re: A thing of real beauty...(Hunter Clark)
Speaking of Pendlebury
The moment where Longy gave away the 50m penalty, it was Hunter Clark that immediately got in his face and told him to cool down and focus on the next contest and put the error behind him
That’s future captain material right there and perhaps time to elevate him to the leadership group next year

Re: A thing of real beauty...(Hunter Clark)
I wouldn’t give it to him this early. I like the idea of co captains. Maybe a Membrey/Steele combo

Re: A thing of real beauty...(Hunter Clark)
Kid must have amazing core strength. For someone his age to be able to hold up in some of those tackles is rare. A few more pre seasons under his belt, get his physique battle hardened, and Clark will start beating up on some midfields. It will be glorious to behold.
