His debut was the ultimate baptism of fire ( finals aside )
If you can handle that heat, you will only be much better for the run.

Einstein (IQ) and Helium (the first of the Noble Gases) have been brilliant in debut.

They have slotted right in and are actually adding to the dynamics of the team

Well done boys....finals await thee

^ maybe we go with Krypton rather than Helium.

Both IQ and Noble played well and should hold their spots. However, IQ looked to me like he was beginning to cramp up in the 2nd half of both his games. No doubt it's a massive step up in pace and intensity from VFL footy, but both boys look to me like they are well equipped to make the grade.

P. Ryan: "Collingwood's John Noble also wore the highest number seen on a Collingwood player's back since Aaron James wore No.51 in 1994 when he wore No.49 to victory on debut out west. Of course that's a number cult figure Rupert Betheras made his own in his first 38 games with the Magpies in 1999-2000 before he switched to No.10."

If we had Rostoff he would make him Captain.

The luck of the draw eh

Kid racks up series of games in SA unijured

Ditto racks up series of games in VFL uninjured

One AFL game and his luck ran out. Injured

3 from 3 for Johnny.

Who would have thought this kid would have come in, played in a win over West Coast, got injured, came back, and held his spot for a Qualifying Final. It's amazing! Being 22 helps his case though. Go you good thing!

He’s in the age group at Collingwood that can create a golden era for us

It's his good decision-making which stands out the most to me. Plus, he's fast. A good combination I reckon.

I’m hoping for a 2010 Blair-like fairytale for him.
