Agreed
The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

Re: Acres
Love him... brilliant one minute...
Where did he go... where is he... mmmm.....
Is he still out there....
Oh there he is....
He just seems to go missing for patches then crops up to do something.

He was more composed than usual, exciting to watch

Re: Acres
Apart from that mark he dropped he did some really exciting things.
Even some of his taps showed he thinks creatively - one little attempted tap in the Lockett pocket didn't come off but the thinking was impressive
He is a natural.

Re: Acres
Personally, I'm a huge fan
Want to see him stay in the 22 and IMO he'll improve out of sight quickly

Re: Acres
Big fan. I really see a lot of Lenny in him.
I wonder if Lenny could mentor him this year to help him hit his full potential?

Re: Acres
Watching the replay now. Acres dropped a mark then was pinged holding the ball in the first quarter when he should have had a close range shot at goal. Once he becomes more confident I don't think we will see this sorts of moments in his game.

Re: Acres
Brilliant
And innovative
Showed from his introduction to AFL football that he will be a stand out player not only at St Kilda but in the competition
And he now has the support he has
The stereo comment re his disposal is way off the mark and always has been
He is a player who is 2 or 3 steps ahead

Just needs to play senior games. Get another 30 games under his belt and will really flourish. Has real line breaking ability.

I must be watching a different Acres.
