Welcome Liam Baker

He is a ripper. Love his hardness, clean hands, and smarts. What a pick up he has been. Is a credit to himself, but it also highlights how good our recruiting and player development has become.

May have been the shortest player on the ground but played like the tallest.
BOG for me.

yeah I gave him the votes.

20% less game time thats $hai and Dusty and as many metres gained.

his best game for the club.

goodness me...we are watching ,,,once again we say to each other ..'wow ,how hreat is baker "....an absolute A grader now and thats undeniable.. and must surely be all australian...

Hes gotta be on the white board in the small backs column.

gotta be

last night he was extraordinary.

I cant really think of a player to compare him to?

Mark Harvey the defender?
 
Bakes is my latest man crush. He just does everything right. I'm a short bugger and Bakes is even shorter than me but still holds his own against bigger blokes in physicality. He's clean with the ball and makes good decisions. Another rookie masterstroke
 
I love the little bow legged strut and swagger. It just makes a statement to say “ I’m here to play. If you bash me, I’ll keep getting up. If you don’t I’ll rip yez apart“
Got some tuffs and skill this little prick. Plenty of confidence in his team, his role and his own game. But still humble.

I love when he gets crashed into by bigger bodies and he bounces to his feet laughing. Psychotic!

Bakes reminds me of Eagles All Australian and premiership player Jewf Hart.

I'm starting to wonder if players that win premiership medals at a young age, that they grow a bit more quickly due to the confidence the medal brings. Baker was solid last year, but has gone another level this year. Bolton has been huge.
