Someone you know wrote:Could've been anything that kid. Although I believe that line is trade marked by Sean "Could've been Anything" Rusling.
Oh my word, are we back on to Sean Rusling again?

I thought he was good in the first half yesterday, but faded in the second half.

Looks more confident with his marking ability and he always causes concern for opposition defences which can only be a good thing for us.

In terms of his marking, this is his year-to-year average per game:
- 2016 = 2.73
- 2017 = 3.22
- 2018 = 4.20 (includes the round 1 shocker)

If he can impact the scoreboard on a more frequent basis and continue clunking marks, he's going to remain a very handy forward target for us.

Mason Cox was on the Beep Test tonight. It's a humorous footy quiz show on Fox Footy. He looked really comfortable and it seems he's cottoned on to that depreciating humour that Australians have down pat. When he first arrived, he looked like he had no idea what it was all about! He even answered this question "What are the next words after this line in this particular song - Am I ever going to see your face again"? Got the answer perfectly with no prompting!!

He said that although he has five year permanency visa, he's going to apply for Australian citizenship next year.

Sounding like he's been here for a long time... love it!

Big 2 months where Mason can dominate and get some real confidence into his ability coming up.

There's many more chapters of this blokes story yet to unfold. 8)

Big fella is 100% on budgie smugglers. Why anyone would wear them is beyond comprehension.

Comfort over style. Is it actually possible to swim in board shorts?

Yes, if they fit.
