He's got the early Ben Cousins bowl-cut flowing in the wind hairstyle working for him.

In the highlight reel he's got the "Run, Bennt, run" thing happening.

Seems ok nothing to flash but not crap either if anything probably picked at the right spot although at least once kicked with his left so that is an advantage.

This pick excites me the most he can tackle , run and he's second effort is whats needed bit of hard nut Jake King replacement with a x factor just what the forward line needs

Probably one we could've got in the rookie draft.

Given the long pause probably wanted Cavka at this pick before WC nabbed him.

Another st pat's boy. Amazing how many kids are now getting drafted from the school.

I boarded with both James McDonald and Peter Walsh from my year.

My wife accused me of watching porn when she heard the music that accompanies his highlight package: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFGVQACpeGw -- ill take her word for it :)
Hate to ask the stupid question but. How does your missus know what porn music sounds like? :eek:

Like the clip of this kid, got some serious hard working ball rat to his game, loves the goals and just a touch of hard mongrel to his attack on everything that gets in his way.

I know nothing about this kid but his nickname has to be Alfred.

Yes to that.

Alfred looks to me like he loves the tough stuff. And already a nice build. Might play in his first year as he looks like he has the pace and the defence side of his game at AFL level.

I've watched so many of those highlight clips I told my wife I was watching porn so that she didn't think I was weird.

He's Daffy Mk 2.....and has a touch of 'Duck Disease' so I reckon 'Duck' is appropriate....but whatever.....his highlights are great too.

The AFL highlights on Butler are very impressive.

averages 8 tackles a game and had 17 versus Oakleigh I week


Interesting player

Butler's name didn't come up during the pre-draft comments so I wondered.
There was some strong support for McGrath who was taken after Butler.
So I went and had a look at the Inside Football write-ups.
Imagine my delight when it seems that Butler looks a better bet based on those stats.
