What I love about him is how clean he is bellow the knees, and he doesn't even wax!

He is doing very well with the Maggies. High chance of being our next gorilla forward.I think Harvey will be an excellent replacement for Schultz - He smashes packs and is a terrific kick. He was our best pick up last draft.
Sorry but Kern will need to take a backseat on this one as we've been wanting to recruit a big fat kid for well over 10 years.Would like to see him become our Tom Hawkins type.
Kenny wants a gorilla forward, he knows how dangerous they can be, especially with our game plan.
Our best SANFL KPF atm.
I would really like to see him get 3/4 of a game vs a team like the Doggies or Melbourne as our 3rd tall.
Harvey does have a long way to go to make it at AFL level, but he has now scored 18 goals in 9 senior SANFL games, ( Shaw has 6 in 9 games ), as a comparison Butch has scored 56 goals in 30 games, so there is only a gnat's appendage in it.
Harvey also spends time in ruck, plus it pays to remember he is still 18, he will be 19 not a real long time before Butch turns 23.
He should also develop a much bigger body than Butch, who is long and angular, while Harvs has a frame that could possibly take up to another 10 kg of muscle.
The best case scenario would be that all 3 can eventually push for AFL selection, but if only one makes the big time on a regular basis, that is about the law of averages, two would be a bonus, and all 3 would be sublime.
Surely he should be fine sitting up fwd for 3 quarters.

I think you hit on the key point that Harvey and Butch are different types of players. So if an opportunity arises which one gets the call-up will depend on what we have to cover. Personally I'd weight selection towards Butcher, when on song he is fast and useful further up the ground as in the last Showdown. But Harvey will get a call up before the end of 2015 and I look forward to it.Harvey does have a long way to go to make it at AFL level, but he has now scored 18 goals in 9 senior SANFL games, ( Shaw has 6 in 9 games ), as a comparison Butch has scored 56 goals in 30 games, so there is only a gnat's appendage in it.

Nobody sits up forward for three quarters in modern footy. Every player is expected run up and down the ground playing defensive football. He would simply blow up after a quarter.
He's not ready, I can't see why people want throw him into it yet.
