So I have a rationale... what are you basing your optimism on?
So fox rankings are way more important & carry more weight than Hine & Rendell? That's not being rational.

Sounds pretty damn good!! :lol:

Wowee. Looking forward to that.

Our new Leon Davis, but better. This excitement machine will remind us of the Krak as well. EXACTLY the kind of X factor dude we have been screaming for for three years. Thank goodness we picked him up. If he works hard this guy will regularly get the black and white army out of its seats. WIN WIN
Get back on top.

After watching the below highlights, he really reminds me of Andrew Krakouer, the way he moves and gets himself out of trouble, the goal sense. Can't teach it, some just have it.

From Big Footy website:

"Hi Magpies. Have know Kayle since he was a kid. From Lake Boga. He commuted from Lake Boga to Bendigo And back for training to play for the Pioneers for 2 years. He is a humble, genuinely good human being, and deserves any success he has. Having said that, he plays as hard as anyone can, and he has special skills. Don't worry about the conditioning, he hasn't really had a decent run at it with the long commute. In your excellent development program he could be anything. Look after him, and he will be something special. Wish he was at the Cats, but really want him to be a gun for you. Good luck Kayle".

Was actually thinking The Big Show MkII with a Krakouer upgrade.

Really stoked to land this kid, big risk but potentially enormous upside.

We haven't had a decent crumber since Andrew Krakouer retired. By the end of next year we might have two - Kirby and Daicos. If Elliot and Fasolo are fit, Hoskin-Elliott lives up to expectations, Moore plays a full season and Cox continues to improve we might end up with a lethal forward line. That would be good!

A Byron Pickett-clone with Cyril Rioli-type tricks
Get fkd, if thats true we are in for one hell of a ride here!! :shock:

All this talk of a likeness to Pickett/Leon/Cyril/Krakouer has got me a little happy in pants.

Looking forward to see if he can make the squad at some stage in 2017!!
