Posted this article in drafts and trading, but interesting article on merve neagle's son for those that didn't see in the Age.

Looks like we may have another fat boy coming to the club, joining the fine tradition of this club in having at least one fatty on our list (Rioli, Calthorpe and O'connor before him)

He does look exciting.
To drop 5kg's in half a season, where I presume he has also worked on his strength is promising.
He is only 17, so he has plenty of time to get his conditioning right.
I wouldn't be suprised if the club requested he spent another year in the under 18's competition as it looks unlikely he would be a worth a round 3 pick, given our current draft position.

he is a full forward from all reports, spending some time up at chf. Haven't seen him play myself, so can only quote 2nd stories.
187 cm tall.

Anyone know anything about gary fould's son. I think he's 16 so too young for this years draft, but apparently we have our eye on him?
hey guys, not trolling but ive seen him play once, plays FF at Gippy Power, can play up the ground a bit...and he also looks bigger than 187cm on the field
strong hands, great kick, and is proving this year he can kick some bags...also bottom age so no rush to take him this year, and he could get another year of developing his game at TAC level
cheers

Got a wealth of young key forwards coming through the moment.

But by the time he's ready Lloyd will only have a couple of years left, as will Lucas. Laycock is more a ruckman, Watson is more a midfielder and dare i say it, Courtney is a bit of an unknown.
If he's rated worth a 3rd round pick or better we should take him.

what we really need is an up and coming full come. Kepler looks to be not canny enough, and as Dustin is near to retirement we really need that as a big priority. Sam hunt looks to be a permenant Bendigo player and Zantuck is way too slow. backs should be the priority, not forwards as we have lovett lucas,lloyd and rioli

Might be too many. We could trade one of our up and ocming key forwards for a very good midfielder, but I dont want them to go. Laycock, Watson, Johns, Neagle.
