Welcome to Hawthorn Pick 22: Kieran Lovell

[threesixpio]

Welcome Keiran.

Sh&t - that handball at 4.08.......

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Anyone else see a little bit of GAJ in him? Quick, agile ball-magnet and loves a cheap one-two.

I'm thinking more Robbie Gray than Gaz.

I'm thinking more Robbie Gray than Gaz.

Similar stockiness. If you squint a bit

 

[Lethality]

I thought more Ben Cousins.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

I like it

Clarko and co obviously have identified the direction the game is heading, and are picking more agile, less bulky players

 

[detox]

I like this pick.

So he's 174 cm? who cares. Sam Mitchell is an inch and a bit taller then him, and he's already at same weight. Can kick off both feet, agile balanced and has endurance.

His clearance and disposal numbers are the best of the draft. Seems his height is the only thing stopping him from being taken higher.

And complimented height wise by Burton anyway (if he also ends up in the middle).

 

[SSSSSS]

I think the relative success of Caleb Daniel last year has given the green light to the little guys.

 

[Kenyan]

Looks a young version of Sam Mitchell - great agility and wins the ball. Averaged 32.5 possessions at the nationals - lets just hope he turns out to be half as good as the champion SM.

 

[Frankston Rover]

I'd rather a footy player than an athlete and this kid looks like he's a footy player.

Good luck young man. Looking forward to you proving the knockers wrong.

 

[La Vache]

Is a dead wringer for his dad. Little fella with a big jaw. Andy was a brick shithouse too, from memory.

 

[savagelunchbox]

Really like this selection.

Ticks all the boxes that Hawthorn need.

 

[Adoyle]

I like this pick a lot, would've preferred Gresham but this guys not far behind in my book, height bias in AFL is creating bargains in some of these young guys and I've got a good feeling about Lovell

 

[Davo-27]

im surprised we went for Lovell with Tucker, Partington, Clarke, Cole, Bonner, Mathieson and Balic available, but obviously the Hawks see more in him than i do, lets all hope he becomes a competitive centreman.....

 

[No.19]

i before e

His Dad?

He's distantly related to Andy Lovell.

 

[La Vache]

His Dad?

He's distantly related to Andy Lovell.

Ha!

I could have sworn I read that somewhere. Oh well, he does look like him a bit anyway

 

[Whowants2know]

Great pick by the hawks, hoping we got him at 25-26. Have seen a lot of his junior footy, don't let his size worry you, has a really good leap for a small and will put head over the ball. Made a bomber supporter more jealous of you.

 

[Move P]

Toby Greene?

 

[RIOLIUSTAR]

Inspired pick, he'll be a ripper

Welcome son

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

If he is anything like Sam he will be a gun All the best to him

 

[2006_Eagles]

Great get you guys

My fave player from this draft

 

[aussie80s]

Who?

 

[Roger Rogerson]

I'm thinking more Robbie Gray than Gaz.

Exactly my thoughts. Great minds....
