List Mgmt. Welcome Elijah Hewett (Pick 14, 2022 National Draft)

[BeornJ]

Yeah I heard he went to a party and brought a 4 pack of vodka and cranberry mixers. I'm hoping he's put that kinda shit behind him now.

This is the most vile and malicious thing you've ever posted.

I pray it's just a rumour.

I pray it's just a rumour.

Hewett = THE A5

This kind of wild speculation can ruin a man's life

Hewett = THE A5

Unfortunately I possess little flapping dick energy

 

[plays tall 1]

I dunno mate, it was all dumb rumours blowing around predraft as to why he might slide etc. I don't mind perpetuating it coz it's so stupid it's funny but I really don't believe any of it.

Poor form to repeat a false slur about bullying a disabled kid. Be better.

No, I don't think I will.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Blowing vape smoke in a Collingwood scout's face and just some general shenanigans with other club's scouts, from memory.

To be fair i thought that was a Collingwood mating call. Maybe he thought the same?

 

[plays tall 1]

No, I don't think I will.

Defames one of our players, gets called out on it and doubles down. What a bloke.

Always nice to meet a fan.

Not obsessed

There was a tent involved as well, right?

 

[squashface]

All that vaping coming back to get Elijah here with that cough

 

[DanWCE]

All that vaping coming back to get Elijah here with that cough

I'm guessing they would have edited that video compared to the live stream where he had to excuse himself and go grab a bottle of water because he couldn't shake the coughing fit

I heard they were actually lemon ruskis, and a club official had to pull him aside and educate him on the harmfulness of communism.

 

[Dark Sharks]

Positive that he's put up career best games in 2 of the past 3 weeks.

Hope he can stay on the park.

 

[plays tall 1]

In commentary Simpson said he’s never going to be a 30 possession type, more of a burst athlete. I think that’s unduly pessimistic, he used to rack up the possessions as a junior and in this interview he acknowledges that he’s still building fitness and sees himself as a mid ideally.

, didn't know that. Would be very helpful for him having someone at the club who has been through the same thing.
Speaks well, when not coughing.
GET THAT MAN SOME WATER........oh finally.

I've been very bullish on this kid since we drafted him and now that he's getting some continuity you can see his confidence growing each week.
I remember listening to him on the podcast I think it was either last year or the year before where he spoke about how he goes about his recovery to ensure he can get the most out of his body and ensure he is in peak physical condition. I thought then that he had the mindset to make the most of his career (if only his body can hold up)

Others may disagree with me here but the way he trains, and plays, and with the cofidence and swagger he shows on field is almost Cuz like. I'm not saying he'll be as good, that would be tough to achieve. But I think he has the potential to be very special. His press conference today even suggests to me that one day he could be captain.

If he continues on his growth over the last 3 weeks and can build on it throughout the rest of the season, I can see it as possibly being what convinces Harley to stay on with us. The idea of Hewy and Harley leading the midfield in a few years time is very exciting. Hopefully we can add another at the top end of the draft this year and we suddenly have the Cuz,Judd,Kerr trio of the new era.

Probably be like Shuey. Have the odd 30 plus games but mostly 20-25 possessions.

I would give an appendage to either bring in through free agency or the draft just a straight up accumulator. Someone who can get themselves from contest to contest to contest and just rolls out of bed and can get you 25 easily.

I'm sick to death of seeing top 10 disposal getters in a game and 8 of them are the opposition.

The form of Hewett and Gibney suggests the downgrading from pick 3 in 22 for these 2 was a massive plus for us

I had never been as excited about a player we picked when we chose him.
More excited then when we picked Reid

They definitely don't do Sheezey ball
