Any father-son/father-daughter picks coming up in the near future?

He's so good that not one of the other 17 teams even wanted to use a pick in the 60s on him. I think a lot of people need to re-adjust their hopes for him.

 

[Hap Hapablap]

i really hope alec is a lot better than what the other 17 clubs think of him.

 

[SpaceClef]

No other clubs bid on him
/delist

 

[eagles rule]

The best result yeehaa!!

 

[ChampRevesby]

A lot of water to go under the bridge but if he is half the player his old man was he should do ok.

 

[eagles rule]

If we use our last pick then no one should be complaining if it doesn't work out .So no pressure on Waterman at all which is good and possibly a steal for Wce.

When is the state testing? Will be funny if he kills it.

 

[ep2018]

Remember, everyone passed Jack Darling too.

Surely he won't bother now

Clubs tend to only bid on the early ones with F/S. Otherwise it potentially locks you into a position (draft wise) when you still need flexibility both in trade week and on draft day.

Agreed - but there were bid picks into the 50s and 70s with this group

Though they may be structural picks like rucks/kpf etc

They also passed on Jacob Brennan

Yeah I saw that. They were also later than expected.

Unfortunately he likely wont do the testing now

Sinclair can still be traded as a rookie as long as that team puts him on the senior list for next year. I would be happy to trade him if it meant we got 2 2nd round picks.

Would you be happy to trade him for a 3rd round pick upgrade like Sinclair + #48 to someone for pick #25-35. Seems fair to me.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Very happy that nobody else bid on him, gives us more flexibility in regards to the draft picks we'll have available and if he turns out to be a dud we won't have used a good pick on him.

 

[The Falcon Strike]

In the highlights for Waterman - two things excite me

First - the kick in the 3rd highlight - bringing it back across his body to advantage of the leading forward - quality kick and excellent game awareness.

Then a little later on was a clearance with decent burst acceleration.

Obviously they are singular highlights but his kicks do seem low and penetrating... must get it from his mum!!

Huh?

His kicks are almost a carbon copy of his old man

Seems I am

 

[kane249]

They also passed on Jacob Brennan

Everyone passed on Matthew "Brownlow" Priddis too

Everyone passed on Matthew "Brownlow" Priddis too

Including us... 4 times

 

[SpaceClef]

I wonder if that one commentator will call him Watterman

 

[Spoon_Man]

Waterman confirmed to us with our last pick

 

[Chris_6678]

Jake already looking taller than his brother. Does his even younger brother play? ( Not sure of his name) A chance for 3 Watermans in the one team if the other 2 make it.

187.5cm and probably still growing.

I believe Ben Waterman is a keen swimmer.
