Delisted #37: Sean Gregory

[vast]

Kepler Bradley was a fletch clone too at least we didnt use pick 6 on this guy.

 

[emblurr]

Lock him up in McDonalds over Summer.

 

[essendon]

quite scary actually ...please feed him !!

Coach a kid who played with him at the cannons. He was dumbfounded that he got picked up, apparently not much chop

I'd say this kid who played at the cannons with him is probably mad he didn't get picked up.
As far as a speculative pick 88 goes, we could have done a lot worse. The kid just needs some meat and potatoes

Chris Langford played seconds at school footy level until halfway through Year 12.

Some kids develop at different rates.

 

[Burzum]

Two first names. Dislike.

Wait, I have two first names... and two last names.

 

[Slattery_20]

He's 6'6" (old money), reads the play, and liiiightning fast.
Not the full package yet, but there's a fair bit to work with.

We just drafted the next Chris Langford?

You beauty

Haha, obviously I'm not saying that, just pointing out that not every AFL footballer tears it up from the moment they stop wearing nappies.

 

[Kong]

I'm pretty sure Ryan Griffen was playing SANFL Reserves halfway through his draft year, too.

 

[kelvin_sheedy]

The only player that is likely to wear the orange vest every training session for the next year.

This kid should not be tackled until he puts on 10kg's.

Actually his bottom age and wasn't eligible. His a far better prospect than Mr Gregory, 192cm, solid build, strong mark, good kick, and finished 7th in endurance running amongst the entire Cannons squad.

Chris Bock just needed meat and potatoes too.

 

[Call Me Cake]

Gun.

It's like watching Fletcher as if he was still playing.

 

[Zach Package]

Watching his highlights he looks a bit fletch-y.

But he looks a bit of a dasher as well, he reminds me a bit of a cross between will schoefield and Jackson Trengove in the way he runs up the ground but also still manages to stay pretty composed with the ball

 

[monty1104]

Best thing about that are his 2nd and subsequent efforts. Doesn't stop working until the ball is gone.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

I just have a super good feeling about this guy

 

[Ben the Gooner]

He's got some toe about him.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

probably been mentioned, but how classic is this from Hirdy:

http://www.essendonfc.com.au/news/a/Gregory-prepared-for-expectation/10231

“Sean is someone we see as long term to replace Dustin Fletcher, he has a similar type body and a tennis background,” Hird said.

“No pressure on him but we would love him to replace Fletch in three or four years time.”

[monty1104]

He's even got the Fletcher hunch going on.

 

[Ess_don]

Haha classic Fletch.. doing whatever the hell he wants while everyone is jogging.

Like the look of that video, neat kick, doesnt mind a bit of run and looks composed deep in defence. Stoked to grab him at #88!

Doesnt matter that he doesnt turn into a monster, he can stay at Fletcher's physique and play 360+ games.

 

[Zach Package]

i really hope he isn't reading all crap we're talking ITT

On this page alone he's been labelled the next fletcher, better than chris langford, and a kepler bradley clone just to balance it out. Go Sean!

 

[Keystone agony]

Yep everyones the next fletch and going to play his role

 

[Old Campaigner]

He's even got the Fletcher hunch going on.

Someone feed him... please
