He's built like a brick shizzen houzzen. I'm really excited about this kid. With a season of WAFL behind him, he could be ready to go. He could very well play senior footy early in the season. One thing's for sure, there'll be no spots for soft c#cks in our team this year. Absolutely rapt.

If we can get him to Buy into the Club and Come a Real Professional that he has a Chance of Making itJezza wrote:Welcome to the club Brenden
He certainly comes across as a risky pick but it could pay off big time if Brendan gets fit and is able to break his way into the side.
He definitely looks like a hard nut who's not scared to go in hard to win his own ball. He also has a good left foot going by his highlights reel.

in the club's summary of our draftees it mentions he is friends with marley williams. i think that should not be underestimated.Dave The Man wrote:If we can get him to Buy into the Club and Come a Real Professional that he has a Chance of Making itJezza wrote:Welcome to the club Brenden
