Pick 29: Shai Bolton

Grey, no-one has ever gone from burning the track to premiership hero.
I can't stand that saying.
I would prefer them doing a Stack style. Training like crap but blitzing in the season.

Except Shai is a premiership hero and Stack isn't.
 
I was joking. Bolton showed late year how important he is to our success.
But again I hate when players are tagged with "they're burning the track"
That saying haunts me.

Not as much as your "jokes" haunt this board

Yep it just shows what high quality coaching and development can do. A few years back I didn't think we had that at RFC; it is now very obvious that we not only have it but at the moment it is unarguably the best in the AFL.

It's a real credit to Dimma, and the whole club really.

Culture ;)
 
FYI- Shai has played ONLY 26 games and is STILL only 21.

The guy I’m most excited about after Round 1.

Shai is leading a pretty exciting group of youngsters at tiger land.

I have never seen the club in such a great position with so many young “guns” in the squad.
 
Was sensational again today. Caesar's boy makes the game look easy tbh.
Leaned back beautifully on the kick & put the ball straight through the big sticks today too.;)

From the reports and some of the RFC vision it looks like Shai may again improve, blind freddy can see this bloke oozes class, if he can reach even close to his potential wowee! Lets hope 2020 is Shai's year, this would be a massive boon for the club to have another A grader!

As I think I mentioned earlier I spent much of 2017 watching the VFL.
The two then first year players who absolutely stood out as very speeecial,
we’re Shai and Noah.
We have all seen what Shai can produce.
Assuming Rance is gone, I have a feeling that in 12 months we will all be talking about Noah, in exactly the same way.

$hai appears to be poised in the crater of a footy dormant volcano that's about to blow.

dangerous, hot, unfathomable, entirely unstoppable

The great man, (Richo), has gone with "OMG$" as his Yellow & Blacker this week saying Shai is about to explode, the year he announces himself if he hasn't already :D

Shai is one player for the Tigers who can really hurt the Skunks tomorrow night.

They dont really have anyone to go with him if hes on.
