Armo

[SainterK]

Is 9 clearances a PB?

Seems to be taking his footy really seriously.

I like.

[elvis lives]

Was really good today and was singled out by the coach post match for social praise. In particular, all the things his does outside of the standard indicators. Coaches loves him and I can understand why. Hard, tough, relentless, gives everything he has and more, makes life easier for every other team mate

[BigMart]

Beast of a player....

Gives 100% commitment to every contes....

Tough as old boots

They breed them tough in Mackay

[kimberly saint]

yep starting to become really good leader , put dunstan along side him and when the great man lenny retires we know won't feel the pain so badly.
Now to just kick tusuck of grass over find replacement for roo

[saintspremiers]

He needs to back it up week after week.

With Jackie out it's his best chance.

[perfectionist]

Easier said than done. The amount of battering that he has taken for the team in the last two weeks is extreme. Ideally, he should be rested for next week, especially given the size of the ground on which we are playing. But I'm sure he would be the last to suggest that.

[roskilde]

I know it may seem trivial, but I think the hair is really symbolic.

He's cut out the stupid coiff, gone lean and mean and taken on the responsibilities of leadership.

I'm proud of him.

Its a real issue if a player needed a rest after only 2 games of footy. Lenny has done it for 15 years without a rest, im sure Armo can it as well.

Armo is not the type to ever want a rest!

[Toy Saint]

His mark in the 1st quarter is an early contendor for mark of the year. And he kicked a goal from that mark. Great to see our mids hit the scoreboard.

[Junction Oval]

So far, he has certainly lifted from last year- a tough nut. Let's hope that he can keep it going - we need him a lot right now, without Jack being there.

[whiskers3614]

Tough and hardworking, great bloke to have as your number 5 or 6 midfielder.
Unfortunately for him and us he is going to have to play as our number 1,2 or 3 unless one of the young blokes jumps out suddenly.

[gringo]

He is exactly what we need along side the kids. Nathan Jones was intent on using his body to intimidate our kids- Armo had him looking over his shoulder instead.

[White Winmar]

All we need now is a couple of quick, outside carriers. Jack coming back will help and if Savage can lift, our midfield will start to look pretty decent. One more draft should complete the picture, given we already have potential mids in Ross, Markworth, Acres, Murdoch and Billings on the list. Even if only a couple of those become effective regulars, things will look good. Now if only we could snatch another Riewoldt from somewhere!

yep....

he tried one exactley the same last week.....right in front of me......as mr smart would say..."missed it by this much"

[Cairnsman]

As somebody else alluded to...he looks like he's gone to a higher level of professionalism.

[PJ]

Some were suggesting we trade him I'm thinking more along the lines of making him our next captain after Roo decides its time. Leads by example not flashy just hard and relentless.

[FQF]

Many were convinced that he had no more room for improvement. I think he has proven those doubters wrong. Will do so definitively if he puts in another couple of consecutive good performances against better sides.

he is likely to be the next captain...would be a good appointment...imho....

[SainterK]

He has even tried to run and spread, which isn't his greatest asset, but he's trying in jacks absence.

Big tick.

I'm proud of him, even though that's a weird emotion for someone I don't know.

[PJ]

You don't need to be the best player to be the captain but you do have to lead by example and Armo has this in spades.

Not sure he has until most recently, but agree he is blossoming
