Draft Profile Peter Wright

[aussierulesrules]

PETER WRIGHT

Calder Cannons
203cm
Main positions: Key forward, ruck.

Victorian Peter Wright dubbed better than Joe Daniher as Melbourne, Carlton eye forward saviour:

"Recruiters were wowed by a 55m post-siren Wright goal last year, with Kyte adamant he could play Round 1 next year.

He is the nominal no. 1 pick entering the national under-18 championships in a draft well stocked with key talls.

“He has always been a kid who stood out because of his size and he played as good a ten minutes of footy as I have seen in Round 2 of the TAC Cup. He kicked four goals in ten minutes and runs a 14.5 beep test which is elite for his height and runs three seconds dead for 20 metres, which is elite.”

Easily top 5 in the Draft

Brisbane might try and go 0-22 to get him. They're in dire straits.

Any footage of him playing?

It takes a team with tanking experience to guarantee a no.1 pick

 

[RUNVS]

Melbourne and Carlton may want him but I strongly suspect Brisbane will be getting the spoon this year. Carlton look like they will win at least a few games while Brisbane look no where near it.

YOU ARE THE ONE WHO WILL BE GETTING THE SPOON

We are a proud club we have never tanked and we will never tank.

No one is suggesting Brisbane will tank to get pick 1.

suddenly I dont feel too bad about our loss to Carlton. Based on our game vs Carlton we are easily a worse side than Brissy.

I watched the first 3 quarters, but left at 3QT. Wright touched the ball a total of 3 times. Kicked 2 goals 1. All in the last 10 mins of the 3rd quarter.
I pretty much only went to watch Zaine Cordy, so was pleased to see how well he was doing on him

I heard that Wright kicked a couple more goals in the last though.

 

[Ducky Tie]

Wright ended up with 6.

To add to this though, his legs are like tree trunks. Damn hard to move.

No. T Wallis is Dean's son.

Exactly..

McCartin has better hands and is a better player, very evident today. Height is the only reason Wright will be drafted ahead of him.

 

[Bulldogsnm1]

I made a comment weeks ago that he is a very good ruckman, he is not a key forward in today's football. Outsizes most boys in the TAC cup, today at full forward he flew for a number of pack marks and was then out of the contest, second efforts were poor.

That said he makes good decisions when he has the ball, good handball and kick for his size. I would see him being a late first rounder not number 1 pick.

 

[Dav1d]

^ hahah

I've watched him and he looks very good, some quicker KPDs might give him trouble at AFL level because he is pretty slow
obviously will be a high draft pick, but I am far from convinced he'd be a star at the next level

What about kicking for goal?

Don't get the ? regarding his goal kicking. 25.15 in the TAC Cup and he kicked some big goals in the champs last year.
