Chad Warner - Round 3 Rising Star nominee

[Molly dooker]

Saw Chad shopping at the supermarket with his very pretty girlfriend (hope she's from SYD), and had a chat with him. This was after the 1st game 2021.

He was surprised someone recognised him, he was a lovely bloke and his chest pumped out perceptibly when I told his partner she had herself a winner.

He was humble, polite and I think he needs to get used to people recognising him now.

p.s. I told him he's Joeys replacement as he's got "the bull about him".

I don't think it's because Chad is an exceptionally elite kick or decision maker. But because he decides quickly to break lines and gets the footy in quick, and often long. In an era where defences set up as a unit, and attacking teams proceed with caution, it's really refreshing to see Warner just take the game on and go. A defenders worst nightmare is a footy coming in red hot.
