i read he's got hands like stewy loewe & if he can be anything like him we got a winner boys!!

As long as he does not kick like him.

Listening to the champion data guy on SEN discussing how most current day dominant key forwards have hit certain stats as a junior including goals per games and possessions. He said Schache hit all these but Harry has failed to reach these stats. Is it a worry that he has not been a high possession and goal kicker as a junior? This makes me a little concerned time will tell.

Given his background I wouldn't worry. It would be nice, but not something that matters - it's all about how well he dedicates himself in the AFL system now.

Given Harry's a bottom ager I believe a better comparison would be Schache's 2014 stats with Harry's 2015.

Hopefully someone has them handy?

Interesting comparison comparison with Schache. We wanted 200cm Boyd, missed out. Wanted pick 2 for 200 cm Schache, mussed out. Have an opportunity to get
200cm Mckay, got him!

Great pick up for us.

I wish Ben McKay went to Brisbane instead though

 

[PumpyChowdown]

When can we seriously expect "Dirty" Harry to start delivering? Given he is very young I would like to think that we get his body right first and get him physically developed. I expect at least next year in the 2's, and then easing him into the seniors in 2017. He should start holding his own a year or two after that IMO.

One thing is for sure, we must be patient.

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

I'll give him until the end of the NAB Challenge series ... After that, he's fair game for Russell type abuse.

When is he "much-maligned"? Round 12?

FWIW, I think we can't expect McKay to deliver before about 2019, at earliest.

 

[Love the Drake]

Bottom ager. Who looks very raw.
No rush with big H. He's a slow cooker.
Develop him in the 2s over the next two years and have him ready to go 2018.
Others like Weitering & curnow look more ready to go; I would expect they play 10-15 games this year if their form warrants it.

Exciting times!

If his brother gets a game before him I say we start calling for heads to roll.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

So another Silvagni and McKay on our list...the two previous times that happened we won the premiership!

Sergio Silvagni and David McKay
Steven Silvagni and Andrew McKay

Jack Silvagni and Harry McKay???

holy mackerel. It's the circle of life.

i know we dont want to rush him, but he is a top 10 draft pic.
if it takes him over 3 years it really would be a waste of that pic.
i believe he needs to be pushing for selection by mid 2017, ready to explode 2018

Please stop detonating our draftees.

If this happens - Im going to appear through grainy vision on Al Jazeera calling for an overhaul of the recruiting team.

The current coleman medallist was not exactly quick out of the blocks after being a number 4 draft pick

The way things are, I can no longer participate in these jokes...carry on

 

[Bluechip66]

he played 9 games in his first year, 13 in the next then traded to WC where he continued to play games at the top level

 

[thebluelagoon]

OMG! like we actually drafted a key forward!

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

****ing loving the old school names we are putting together on the list, Blaine Boekhorst take note....Clem Smith and Harry McKay, I feel like I am down at the early opener in 1942!!!!! I hope in next years draft we pick up a Claude, Horace, Norman or Percy!!!

 

[blueboy25]

spent a fair bit of time at East Freo in his first couple of years at West Coast so not exactly a regular

A good solid defender with the first name Bruce would be nice

 

[Bluechip66]

actually played 7 then 16 in his first 2 years at WC
the 7 was due to he wasnt that happy at being traded, then settled
