Pick 29: Shai Bolton

[CarnTheTiges]

Can find space where no one else can. He’s almost untouchable at present.

 

[Tigertool]

Signed a two-year deal last year, expires end of 2021. He'll get paid next time.

We’ve gotta get him sorted on a nice, fat, 5 year deal

I think you can rely on Ralph negotiating a decent covering of fat on the deal.

Gotta hand it Ralph.

He really knows how to fill a stable

 

[blx]

I'm likin' what I'm seeing.

 

[tigerman]

Has come back very well after he was unlucky to be dropped. I thought we would struggle to cover the loss of Prestia, but Shai has come in and played Prestia's role better than I could've hoped for.

 

[Tigermad2005]

Should never play anywhere but midfiel.

Agree - and and there's good reason to hope and expect that Stacky can make a similar recovery from his own setbacks and poor form

 

[Jason King]

He would be top 5 in the 2016 draft wouldnt he? I rate McLuggage, McGrath and Taranto but I dont spend much time on oppo sides anymore. We nailed that pick to the moon and back.

I think he would be top 5 Mccluggage,Taranto, English, Bolton, Florent, Stewart McGrath. The rest of that draft has good ordination players.

And kudos to Vickerdud for taking the free agent Hawthorn offer and in doing so providing us with the draft pick for Shai.

Amen

Perhaps you meant "good ordinary players" as Jack Dyer used to say? That auto-correct is a pain...

 

[zippadeee]

Just signed a 9 year deal.

 

[bringbakflemmo]

Super player in the making.
Has been a shining light since moving into the midfield.
Leave him there.

 

[St Kevin]

All he needs is a tank (and a goal kicking radar adjustment).

 

[UKTiger]

Another who worked all day for the cause. A pity many of the others didn't put any real effort in.
Midfield suits him

 

[Smoking Aces]

Just needs to keep build his tank. Can’t play four quarters. Once he does - watch out!

 

[fastin bulbous]

Seems to be getting slipperyer as the season goes on. No one can tackle him last 2 weeks

 

[Tigers of Old]

For mine he was the shining light again for us. I'm actually blown away by how rapidly he is improving.
At times among a star studded field he looked like the best player out there.

Start now on the new contract.

Shai "K-Y" Bolton

 

[tigerlove]

Brilliant again. I had him pipping Dusty as BOG purely because he was so clean with his disposal, zero turnovers. Remarkable.
