Will Langford - Have I been living under a rock?

[cookie33]

Just having a look at this kids stats and I'm not sure I've been living under a rock but is this guy as good as what I've seen tonight?

I'll call it now... A star in the making!

 

[tige19]

Looks very good. Early days though.

 

[Testekill]

He's spent a lot of time playing for Box Hill over the past couple of years instead of potentially being thrown out there before being ready. That's the good thing about being Hawthorn, plenty of depth.

 

[Tas]

He has been pretty good all season, his disposal tonight has been a lot better than normal though.

 

[Donakebab]

Was given zero attention and as such ran wild.

 

[Despair]

Jesus, Gary Busey destroyed it!

 

[Cynic]

He has been pretty good all season, his disposal tonight has been a lot better than normal though.

Correct he's, too use a far undervalued expression, as mad as at cut snake and bleeds brown and gold but his disposal is certainly not top notch. That said I ****ing love the lad.

 

[KropotkinKrow]

Super impressive, rocking the part as well. Very 90s

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Looked pretty average* earlier in the year but is getting better and better with every game he's played. Looks a good prospect.

*Was doing quite well defensively but struggling in other areas.

 

[E Shed]

He looks like one of the Hawks of old with that hair. Was good against us last week too.

 

[SSSSSS]

Will make up for losing JPK if this kid turns out to be a champion. Has been a gun tagger in the earlier half of the year but the last two weeks he's been let off the chain.

Bit unclean at times but he doesn't take a backwards step and adds a new dynamic to our midfield we have been crying out for. Big body with loads of pace.

 

[BF Tiger]

"Hey, it's a young Ethan Hawke with blonde hair" is what I'm always thinking when I see him on the box.

 

[Klaus]

He's always been an attacking player with pace, he's now starting to improve his skills and decision making. He turned the match tonight.

 

[Hodgepodge]

He's been a gun since his return from the VFL about five or six weeks ago.

 

[Pack Specialist]

He was amazing tonight, I hope he gets the credit and recognition he deserves.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

The kid couldn't string 3 games together in his first couple of seasons at Box Hill because his ferocity at the ball was seeing him injure himself constantly.

Was manic again tonight.

 

[SA HAWK]

Can burn the ball but his effort cannot be questioned.

 

[SpiritOfCarlton]

Will Langford? Yes, he will.

 

[Hens Hall]

Has to improve his disposal and decision making but does offer a lot of mongrel a bit of break away speed from the packs which we lack.

 

[ilikepotatoes]

He looks like Scott Thornton.

 

[Spook]

Not yet, best game to date but still developing. I recon another year before Sydney take him with the " but he's from Sydney rule"

 

[PatrickBateman]

Look back at players who have cut us up when we more or less give up like we did tonight. No big deal. Didn't see him much in the first half when hawthorn had to earn their touches. He was taking uncontested marks in the forward 50... He basically wanted the ball more than anyone else did, so he got it.

Was literally a game of 2 halves. We simply had no one willing to match the intensity of the Hawks, just like they didn't last week when Freo turned the screws.

Hawks were facing 2 losses to 2 top 4 sides in consecutive weeks, and the chance to finish 4th. Geelong on 7 game winning streak, already cemented in top 3. The team who wanted it more won it, as most predicted.

Spud. Move along. Nothing to see here.

Yeah, Geelong could have won if they wanted.
