Was that for Richmond or Claremont? I’m sure I saw it live vs Subiaco as a kid but could be a false memory. I loved watching him play. Champion.

Edit - thanks streak!

Yep it was versus Subi

Back in those days Subi was so bad being a step ladder for a screamer was about the only way their players would make a highlight reel.

I've seen Royce, KB and Dusty, Dusty is marginally ahead of them. If Shai can start converting some of those missed shots, he's right up there with them.

:love:

If he could kick straight at goal he'd win games on his own.

Unbelievable talent.

Freaky, cat like, speed, and hypnotizes the opposition.

I thank God every day we took him the pick before Collingwood were going to take him.

I have never seen such a unique player.
If he played for anyone else the media would be all over him.
They are all over him. Any football watcher recognises he is special.

There will be a day he will get 20 possessions and kick 8.
He is our best player by a country mile

Bolts to continue on from last week !
He'll kick straight, he'll tear it up !!
He'll win clearances out of the centre, run rings around them, he'll tear it up !!!
He'll take mark of the year, and kick goal of the year, he'll tear it up !!!!
Shai tore it up, that's what he did !!

Has leveled up. Consistently tearing games apart now.
If he can just add the polish to his goal kicking..finals would be the time to do it!
Yep a kb like finals spree of goals in the 80 series would be awesome.

Let’s get there first though.

It will happen, think he is waiting for the big stage.
Could have kicked 10 again.

He’s an incredible player. He has the speed of a cheetah and moves like an eel through water. He’s so fluid and slippery.

If he sorts out his finishing look out. Could see him kick 8 in a game.
