View Full Version : Heath 'Buddha' Hocking
any updates on his progress?
any updates on his progress?
Just came back from a thigh injury two weeks ago.
He will be on our list at the end of the year...you heard it here first.

the jungle-drums are suggesting he has a bit of promise about him.........perhaps sooner rather than later might be good.
Because of his injury he hasnt done much at Bendigo yet. Has been used mainly as a half forward to dat because his fitness is down.
i know it is very premature but if a payer is elevated off the rookie list because of a long term injury to a senior listed player can another player be added to the rookie list. potentially stupid question as i dont think they can just clarifying.
Also watch kyle matthews form for casey, rookie list potential next year for sure. Dominated div 2 efl last year and should do well at casey, if he does well stll despite his age still definetly deserves a chance at an afl club somewhere.
whats the age limit on rookie listed players.
Also theres a few rangers boys who may miss getting drafted this year that would be worth a rookie listing next year.

You can't add anyone from outside the list during the season.
And I'm pretty sure the age limit is 22 or younger on December 31st of the draft year, but I stand to be corrected.

Left foot inside midfielder that can go forward.
Probably a similar size to what Ricky Dyson is currently.
Good kick of the footy, not quick, not slow.

I'm not sure if that's a positive or a negative.

either am i, just the the fact that somebody has used Godfrey as a comparison to somebody is hilarious.

I agree.
Maybe it is a positive. Perhaps the opposite of saying that would be like comparing someone to a James Hird with no skills, class or football smarts.
I think Austin Lucy is a medium income, blue collar Steven Silvagni

:D...I'd be happy with that.
Very very impressed with the kid today.
:thumbsu:
Want him in the 1's sooner rather than later please.
That suggestion may seem illogical...........but when has logic played a role in our team selection of late?

You mean a 2000-2005 JJ clone right?
Not the 2006 version? ;)

Lets get the kid on the list and play him. He is a class player who I think will go well at AFL level. What has the club got to lose by playing him.

It would mean that Campo , Pev and Bolton cant get a game if Hocking plays, I mean why would you want to stop their development

have heard there are big wraps on this kid.
another rookie listed player who i think deserves a go in the 1s is ben jolley. he has regularly been in the best at bendigo and knows how to find the footy. he impressed in the limited game time that he had in the nab cup game vs brisbane.
