I understand that Kreuger is 196cm tall but is there any upto date info on his current weight?

Yep looks like an excellent bit of work from Wells here. Can send Buzza home now, not required at all.Two young KPF's on the list now and both under 21
Hold fire on buzza.Yep looks like an excellent bit of work from Wells here. Can send Buzza home now, not required at all.
Nope, Suns were granted mature ages coz they lack them, blues don't so they were granted them to on trade to improve their draft stocks.Bit the dark up here. If I understand this correctly, the AFL gives Carlton first dibs at the state leagues to bolster their mature age player stocks, and they trade that to us for a third round pick of the current crop of 18 year olds. Doesn't that defeat the AFL's intent?
Related to Freddy?
I wanna be wrong but those hands aren't made of soft stuff.Hold fire on buzza.
I don’t get this trade.
Is it seriously a promising 19 year old athletic KPF for pick 42 is does 42 give us he ability to draft him?
Seems way unders?
It's his eyes. He had no depth of field.I wanna be wrong but those hands aren't made of soft stuff.
They’ve been very optimistic about the potential of their list too (as has the media), so it makes sense for them to bring in some great young talent at the draft. GC? Not so much. They’re bringing in Miles and Ellis though, so we might see some of these moves from GC later on.Nope, Suns were granted mature ages coz they lack them, blues don't so they were granted them to on trade to improve their draft stocks.
Is he the king of the mature ager? Pods, Stewart, Kelly, maybe Blicavs. They're mighty fine freebies to add to any list.Wells takes the piss a bit at times, but I love it when he pulls out s**t like this.
Can't wait for some BT riffing on his nameAh, I see you'd already made the Freddy Krueger joke in this thread...and you spelt Freddy right!
Thank you for taking the time to post that mate. You've got me super excited now!Worked with him very closely at South Adelaide. You guys have an excellent player. Might be a two year project, but his flexibility is first class. In his under 18 year, he struggled a little as he was used all around the ground and it didn't give him the capacity to settle. He started the year as a key back, was then moved to a loose defender, played a couple of weeks as an inside midfielder (and was very, very good there for a player of his size), before getting moved into the forward line for the national championships. Didn't finish the year well at Souths and reportedly didn't interview well either. He's a very shy kid, who would have been very nervous in the Draft Combine situation, so by the end of the season, I wasn't surprised he was overlooked. But, he came back this year, started in the reserves, worked his way into the seniors and was excellent at Souths. Became a super fit, and at times dominant, centre half forward.
His flexibility and work ethic is his key strengths and his fitness allows him to get a lot of ball on the lead and on the wing. Will need to put on weight to be more effective in the AFL, but I expect that by mid 2020, he could be a very good inclusion. Patience will be important, and he is a very reserved guy.
For pick 42, he's awesome value. Great get.

Now that's what I'm talking about!I'm hoping we'll see Geelong vs Hawthorn with Mosquito and Buzza both playing.

Seems like he's made of the right stuff - https://www.victorharbortimes.com.au/story/5077125/nathan-kreuger-2017-afl-draft-hopeful/
Excellent athlete. Good mover with pace, and he's a nice size.
Not a bad effort for 42.
BTW, what number was Sav drafted?
