Welcome Banga!

Means the club likely has drawn a line through Cooper Harvey beyond this year. Signs aren't good for River Stevens long term either.

Konstanty and RHJ contracted for 2026.

Banch can play.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Really pleased by this pick.

As Souup noted earlier, he comes from a good system and has a team first attitude. Likes a tackle and sets up others with clean disposal.

Someone do a welfare check on Nostra.

 

[Val Keating]

Fair leg on him

Zac Banch = The Ee

Surely! Banchy or Banchee has to be his nickname.

Welcome mate. I'm on your bandwagon.

 

[amaz199]

Thank ****

Tough, booming kick for a smaller player, high footy IQ and a big tank.

Reckon he’ll have an impact.

[Souup]

Was a matter of time before he was on an AFL list and I'm thrilled it's ours.

He can impact immediately - I'd be playing both him and Konstanty in the same forward line with Banch drifting further up and Konstanty deeper at the feet of Larkey.

 

[The Nostradamus]

6 month contract
See how he goes but at least we can cull easily if needed

 

[The Nostradamus]

 

[Daniltchenko You Beauty]

The kick power to height ratio is off the chart.

Welcome aboard tree.

 

[Psicosis]

Banga Banch.

(Banga is his nickname giantroo)

 

[BlueanWhiteKanga]

We got the pick of the banch!

 

[Devski]

Stick a helmet on him and give him all the kick outs

 

[bennymate]

I really hope we don't play him instead of JK

 

[King Hansen]

6 month contract
See how he goes but at least we can cull easily if needed

One mistake and I'd cull him tbh.

 

[Hop_lessly Devoted]

Congrats, looks so promising.

Could become a Banch-mark player...

 

[DarwinRoo]

Zac Banch = The Breston and Northcote Community Hospital

 

[Possession]

Happy with this pick.

 

[Topparoo]

Will he play next week or start as sub on the interchange Banch?

 

[Topparoo]

I can't tell if he is super fast or his legs just quickly move up and down on the spot.
