Cult hero status

Post: # 1834858Post saynta »

From herald sun.com.au

"St Kilda – Rowan Marshall


You know you’ve reached cult status when supporters start referring to you as ‘The Prospect’.

And in Marshall’s case, it’s for very good reason.

The 23-year-old, after an okay year in 2018, took his game to another level this past season, playing 20 games and averaging an impressive 17.8 possessions and 28.4 hit-outs per match.

But he’s also shown he’s a very funny character, sometimes unintentionally – like the time he dropped the ‘F-Bomb’ during a live appearance on The Sunday Footy Show during the year.

With the young Saint set to lead the side’s ruck department again next season, with help from Paddy Ryder, it’s exciting to see what heights this emerging ‘prospect’ will reach as his career progresses.

He was very lucky not to hurt his knee in one game

Much like every player is lucky not to get injured in every single game they play.

How can anyone say this is Trolling? I just remembered
how lucky he was in avoiding a serious knee
injury and decided to post it. You are trying to
cause an argument by calling people a troll.

What’s there to argue you are a troll.

I remember the incident.

He went down at Docklands during the play near the interchange bench.
Grasped his knee and seemed to be in agony.
Looked like a potential catastrophe.

But the medicos got him back on the field.
Not sure exactly what the problem was, maybe jarring.


The rest of Australia can wander mask-free, socialise, eat out, no curfews, no zoning, no police rings of steel, no illogical inconsistent rules. 
They can even WATCH LIVE FOOTY!

I was devastated when I saw that. I thought for sure he had done his knee. Very lucky indeed was our Holler for a Marshall.
