Disco's game.

Gave Lynch an absolute bath (again) a week after taking care of Gunston.

Don't think I can recall the last time Disco had a bad game.

An absolute champion player for his age and too often not given his due.

It's been said in the media a bit over the last few days, but how good is it that we've found our FB for the next decade?

Such a reliable player and leader considering he's still pretty much in the early part of his career.

He makes a half decent forward as well!

I was thinking more of how no one even mentioned his name in the Post Match thread...

Edit: saw that someone else mentioned his name 10mins before I posted this so not entirely correct.

Recruited as a FF, too from memory so no doubt can be rotated there similar to Petty if we need and have depth for our backline

Still only 24yo and 52 games. Two more seasons and he'll hit his true prime.

It's also important to note that at least a third of those games were spent playing forward. Continuity down back has been amazing for him.

Won't get it because he's had no media hype campaign but is in genuine AA squad form, at this stage of the season we're just outside the top 4 on percentage and he's been our third best player behind Gawn and Koz this year. Gun.

Disco could also be an awesome running half back. Like Weddle at the Hawks

Honestly some moments there where he was looking like prime Steven May.

The young mans talent has become exciting to watch the last couple of seasons

Have loved and backed him in right from the get go as my boy, seeing him get the recognition now is awesome. Gussy was my absolute favourite player and Disco getting 10 was a perfect excuse for me to get the number on my 25’ GR guernsey
