Darcy Wilson - Rising Star

Post: # 2054207Post Otiman »

Congrats to Darcy. I didn't think this was his best game of the season, but he has been top 2 or 3 of the nominees each week.

At the start of the year I predicted he would get a nomination before Reid, McKercher, and Walters. 2 out of 3 aint bad.

I'd love for Max King to get some swagger, just doesn't look confident and like he belongs.

Just watched some Darcy Wilson footage and looked at some photos

Why is he bigger in the upper body than Max King?!

Seriously- get in the gym and throw some fkn weights around

He should be a power forward by now- not a fkn stick insect

Agree, he's got to roll those shoulders back a little.

Rhys whilst looking all beast, appears very 'enhanced' these days.

Thought Darcy Wilson was better again this week. With the rising star attention from media and opposition, he handled it brilliantly.

I know it is rhetorical - but No

Yes
When he tries to be aggressive he goes about it the wrong way . His suspension for an unnecessary bump is an example. His moustache another !

Mr Darcy is coming along very nicely and they should be having a look at his contract now and get an extension
