Player Watch Ben Crocker (Delisted 2019, Pies VFL 2024)

I wish that opinion came from someone other than Tricky Ricky.

I assumed he wasn't allowed within 200m of anyone younger than 30.

 

[Vicky Park]

are you inferring he lacks credibility?

Me? Never!

Well, just a little bit.

 

[Snoop Dog]

Could him not playing much Midfield be reason he fell.

Snoop Dog I like you comparison to Stevie J

Yeah possibly. was pretty excited when we got him. Got a hold of some mates involved at Marcellin today and big wraps on Sier. I'll put something in the thread on him re the feedback.

“Scott Burns was my neighbour for about six years in Surrey Hills. I grew up idolising him,” Crocker told Collingwood Media after being drafted on Tuesday night.

“I absolutely loved Scott. I used to drag him along to all the school days at Balwyn and I used to go to his house as a young kid and play with his dog.


I like the kid already......good taste.

Burnsy was my all time favourite number 17 for the Pies.

Sir Scott Burns what a legend. Good work Ben, stick next to him and you'll be playing seniors in no time!

I think Sier and Crocker will be big winners for us this draft

 

[nahnah]

getting presented with his jumper, round 1 came so quickly

 

[THATSGOLD]

I think I like Crockers highlights the best out of the lot. He is the best kick out of Siers Wills and Phillips.

Put it all in the OP! Most people don't read every post in the thread. It's easier to find in the OP. You used to do it. You're getting slack in your old age

Is it just me but I see a young Lou Richards every time I see his face

[35Daicos]

Thought so

Hopefully someone will come along and agree with you!

Lou was actually about 68 in that photo.

 

[Frankie23]

I can only assume that Hine had Wills earlier on his list?
If Essendon pounced on Crocker, then we may have passed with our 4th round.
Crocker was available, so we used our 4th pick.

It's pretty bloody straightforward haha....

 

[TradeDraft]

It's pretty bloody straightforward haha....

Yep and We Picked no one after Crocker sow we have no left on the National Draft List

 

[mike123]

His haircut reminds me of Robbie Gray, hopefully he plays like that.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

Very good ball drop.

Sounds like you've been following him very closely & for quite a few years.

 

[Laurie Holden]

His haircut reminds me of Robbie Gray, hopefully he plays like that.

True that! Was actually going to say his work in the forward 50 has a lot of similarities IMO to Gray. Haven't seen much of him and only on tv, but that's the guy he reminds me of most.
