Pick 29: Shai Bolton

[Brettstigers]

Re BOG I didn't get that vibe at all. Showed some good stuff, but not an overwhelming display.

He also butchered some possessions and stuffed a few chances as well. Tempered his performance for mine. Reflects his low game numbers and is stuff he can easily improve on with more game time.

Good game though and damn he looks a good coming off the bench into the forward line.

I would have said top 3 at least, lots of stuff we haven’t seen much of before, clearances, contested possessions, goal assists. I perceive he played really well.

 

[Tigermad2005]

Great game in the two or three best players on the ground.

 

[eZyT]

I thought he was close to BOG. He is starting to show what he can do.

I gave him 3 votes TOT.

thought it was his formal arrival.

he looked like a boss in the guts.

 

[wayne]

Surely gets the RS nom this week

 

[Scoop]

Work rate starting to match the talent. That’s what I’ll take out of today.

Adding the centre square ability makes him a totally different prospect.

Haven’t scratched the surface yet.

 

[tha8ball]

Could be anything. Has all the tricks.

 

[St Kevin]

Need to re-sign. One of the most naturally talented players on the list.

 

[zippadeee]

Was very good. Very clean and was very good in the centre

 

[jokershoppe]

The kids basically a second year player in age ,under 20 games,came here light and shy,talent wise can easily be a grade,something not to take lightly , amazing talent and I've seen all Tigers play live since 1980,we have currently the most talented juniors in numbers I have seen for at least 3 decades,imagine Ross,Stacky, Bolton running in our mid, dream skills,can't wait.

Trade bait.

 

[caesar]

Trade bait.

If you really think that whatever we get will fail in comparison to what he can become IMO. Have been on board day one, in his first training session he displayed X that i have not seen before except maybe Edwards . Has taken a while to harness it and would be a travesty if we let or he chose to leave now.

 

[zippadeee]

Trade bait.

I thought that to but watching him this year, he has X factor and some class.
I wouldn’t be letting him go. 2 year deal

 

[James]

Plays his best football in the guts where he stays involved in the game. Today showed that.

Agree should start on a wing and rotate with Cotchin in the middle.

 

[craig]

Need to persist with this kid. He has tricks he,s only going to get better.

Along with Stackie and Baker will consign Butler to the trade table.

Hopefully he stays on at the RFC could be anything.

 

[St Kevin]

Trade bait.

This isn't the Butler thread.

 

[BrisTiger24]

He finally got a good go in the middle where he has been carving it up at VFL level. Looked good. Amazing talent. Needs to go through there for the rest of the year

 

[craig]

This kid has real raw skill and talent Dusty apparently has said he is the most talented kid at the club.

I wasn't fussed too much about Shai in past years but he is rapidly growing on me he is a very talented kid, who if he tracks right could become a very special player .

Is close to Satckie so hopefully that will be influential.

 

[taztiger4]

Surely he gets the rising star nom this round

26 disposals @ 81%
9 marks
5 clearances
6 inside F50s
4 tackles
2 goals and 2 goal assists

 

[Bennnny]

Great attitude, really helped Stack to get fit over Summer.
