Deserves a thread after todays performance. Congratulations on your upcoming rising star nomination. Pure class. Gives me hope. Boy is a jet.

The future is so bright for him that he should be wearing shades.

25 touches at 100% with 3 goals!

C'mon Sting ... quicker than slow and incredible skills ...

[saint-stu]

I don't know that that's true stinger. He has a very long stride which makes him appear slow. The opposite of our other gun jack who has a very short stride and he appears to be going very quickly.

Ok then, he's a blob and will be the next Antony Banik.

Never wastes the footy. Clean hands and good mark for his size. Jimmy Bartel anybody?! Gonna be a really good player for our footy club for a long time.

[gringo]

His cleverness and composure when he made Simpkin mark closer to goal that he was preparing for is just innate footy ability.

[plugger66]

Proves why high draft picks are so vital. Also proves why we are still so far away from winning.

[Goose is king]

A little bit wingard today.
Will take that

[Bluthy]

Other teams have been marking him tight in recent games seeing how he is the one player besides Rooey who can hurt them on the scoreboard. Eagles let him go early and paid the price. He's still a boy - can't wait to see him with some bulk a big tank.

[suss]

Glorious kick on his non-preferred foot too.

I can't believe how many AFL players are one-sided.

[perfectionist]

At the moment, he couldn't chase a two legged dog. But I'm guessing (and hoping) that is just his age. You don't lose your skills and he has them with hand and foot. You can improve fitness and tank. And as mentioned above, he forces players to run to better positions. In two or three years time he will be better, but tagged. Then the next phase will begin. We need another five just like him.

[Munga]

Not only can he kick at 100% on left or right foot, but he puts it where it should be.

[Devilhead]

Thought I read somewhere last week that he was mentally shot so I was surprised that he did so well

Did a coach say that?

What does that mean? Are you saying he doesn't chase or put pressure on the opposition?

I'll pretext a man crush here; no one is like Wingard now or ever in the game that I've seen or heard about! 20 y.o. slightly built A.A. B&F FRRRREEEAAAAAKKK
