List Mgmt. Pick 56 - Dougal Howard 199cm KPF (err KPD) ... maybe KPF

[ROBBBO]

all depends on how hard he wants to work. up to him now, welcome aboard

 

[Powerstufff]

Not happy. According to Macca all of our picks have major question marks over them.

Only four question marks this year though. Either better picks or Macca19 has discovered optimism.

Selecting another KPF, I would say that John butcher would be worrying right now. Doubt he will be on the list come 2016.

Love the look of this lad though, has potential.

Butcher should be worrying, he needs to pull his s**t together and start performing.

 

[Lefti93]

teach me how to dougal

 

[shine hosking]

is he the new Daniel Stewart or is he the next buddy, somewhere in between will be great

 

[NoddyHolder]

[Ralph Lorenz]

Dougal came equal 1st in the Clean Hands test at the Combine I've just realized.

First thing I looked at - ball drop

 

[tim cotrill]

let's not forget our first pick is 56..I honestly don't see this kid getting a game with us with the likes of shaw yoey Harvey way ahead of him.

While true, that is primarily due to their more mature bodies and exposure to AFL training in relation to draftees, rather than any overwhelming level of form shown by the older players. If the young ones come on quick, there is no certainty that they will not leapfrog Shaw/Harvey etc

I've seen him play and I just don't see it..good luck to him though but I feel as though we just quickly grabbed anyone we could.

******* ridiculous
political correctness gone mad

So a full time team of talent spotters working all year for this one day, and they "just quickly grabbed anyone" they could???

Wow! Now there is faith in your club!!

From Emma Quayle:

Dougal Howard (Murray Bushrangers)
Born 25.3.1996, 195cm, 88kg

AFL biography: Tall developing forward that provides an excellent target inside 50. His overhead marking is a strength and once he takes front position it's difficult for defenders to spoil. Possesses an excellent vertical leap while also showing elite leg speed for a player of his size (2.92secs 20m Sprint). Played senior footy with the Wagga Tigers in 2013. Averaged four marks and one goal per game during the NAB AFL Under-18 Championships. GWS Giants Academy player.

Lee Fraser, Murray Bushrangers: "Raw, raw, raw. This is his first time in a program and he's 196cm, sub three seconds for the 20 metre sprint, a Wagga boy who has come to Albury for his first full year in the environment. He didn't start with us until February either, so his scope is enormous. Lock him away for two years and you could have a really good, athletic key back or forward who can pinch hit in the ruck."

after the viral outbreak at the club hand hygiene is roughly 30% of our draft testing analysis

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Could be the next Achilles Jones.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Looks like we've won over Wagga

 

[Duck Farmer]

Anyone ever heard of a KPF from Wagga carving out an AFL career? Wasted pick.

Clean hands - what's the big deal... a bit of soap, not hard to do.

I work in aged care ... what seems clean and hygenic is often not ... but for AFL players seems a bit over the top to test

 

[It Just Is]

Clean hands - what's the big deal... a bit of soap, not hard to do.

But do I have to do it every time?

Even after a number 1?
