If you get a chance have a look at the abciview replay of the West Perth v East Perth game.

Marcus Adams is in the Troy Wilson mould. He's no less strong or bulked up I can assure you.

He kicked five and gave off several others. Marks strongly, kicks straight. He could be a sensation in the competition this year.

LH,

He did some good things v EF but took a couple of weeks to settle into WAFL footy. Bill said after a couple of training sessions that he was salivating at the prospect of this kid and could not wait to unleash him this year. The added bonus about him that we did not know until last Saturday is that he has some pace for a monster, I love the vice like grip he gets on the ball !

Yeah mate. Opposing full backs are in for a rude shock when they play West Perth this year.

It's good for the comp I reckon.

Subi have a forward - Shane Yarran - who is similarly exciting and has burst on to the scene also although he is a totally different kind of player of course.

These two fellas will draw in some fans once word gets around.

Monster alright...jeez he's a lump of a lad...

Yes he is Chopper ..played a few League games for us but he thought it was better to move away from the club out of the shadow of his older brother Luke unfortunately.

were EP at full strength on the weekend?.....pretty sure they were missing at least 8 regulars.....leedy educated me last year on the importance of such matters ....

whilst it great to see WP win, but pretty hard to judge against a weakened opposition....how is Adams senior going these days BH....playing any sort of footy?

Not that I am aware of freeze and I very much doubt Luke would ever play footy again unfortunately ..its just far too risky mate. He has been helping out with the Colts/Ressies coaches the last couple of years tho.

I thought Marcus had a lot of potential and he will be a good player for West Perth. Talking of the Falcons they have developed a nice little ex Swannies club down there now, what with Adams, Krakouer, Potente, Spencer and Embley. Have I missed anyone?

Just in case anyone was in doubt about the Troy Wilson comparison - tank this bloke. Photo courtesy of the West Perth FC & Croc Photography
