Manson

[AnythingsPossibleSaints]

One thing I know for sure is that Pelchan obviously had a lot to do with Buddy and Cyril at Hawthorn, so when someone as exciting as Manson comes along I expect he would have done his due diligence with regards to him and not been scared off by the prospect he may get homesick.
As a result of that, if we call out his name tonight, I'll be pumped.

+1 I don't expect us to pick him up but if we do I'll be excited.

IMO a waste of a draft pick.

I can't see how he could settle living in Melbourne.

As talented as he is, he may struggle with all the demands

From what I hear the home sick thing is a major beat up he is no more risk of wanting to go home than any kid leaving home tonight ...

Well said!

Some major stereotyping in this thread!

on SEN this morning they were saying something similar, all a part of freo / west coast from scaring the eastern states off.

They all have letters from the alphabet in their names.

I think Manson's got more in common with X Factor than Australian Idol

[saintbrat]

Listening to his story from someone last night I thought mmmm - maybe if we can get X and Raph to be his mentors as they appear to have made the cross quite well and still have connection back to Darwin.

X and Raph? What do they have to do with Manson? Sorry I was just pretending to be someone else for a second. It wasn't fun!
Seriously, though, Raph may not be too happy to add mentoring to his load if he's just taken a pay cut. A pay cut that X apparently wasn't happy about, either, going by his reported Twitter comment.
Where there's a will there's always a way, though. If we reckon he's good enough and has the sort of character we're wanting, we can make it work.

You obviously didnt hear a person who knows him from the top end on SEN today. Doesnt sound like a person who would be at our club anymore than about half a year. Stay away which we will surely do.

care to elaborate ?? Word is he can be a bit cocky and has ahigh opinion on himself.... Funny enough the same was said bout Buddy

[AnythingsPossibleSaints]

Manson has also been kicking big bags of goals against grown men (and Fev), so he could potentially come in and make an impact relatively quickly at AFL level.

[saintsfreak]

Rookie please

[st_Trav_ofWA]

Rookie please

WCE will get him I reckon
