Player Watch Fischer McAsey - Steps Away from Football, Not Returning

[radiojake]

Until tonight I'd only read his name on bigfooty

how many else had been pronouncing it wrong?

Worst draftee interview I've ever seen. He all but took the jumper off and spat on it.

Look at the kids eyes. He has that Billie Frampton like look of evil in them.

Welcome to the club Fisher,
Our first pick in the top 6 and I honestly believe we have nailed it. In two years we will be seeing Fog and McAsey being the best one two forward combo in the comp. I know that he is projected as a kpd but everything I see screems forward to me . He moves beautifully, he is fearless and he marks the ball cleanly at its highest point. Added to that he has a pure kicking action, is naturally attacking by nature and hits packs, and with Doedee being our being our intercept defender, key forward is his calling.
Stephens was the only other option and with him going at 5 and with the great midfield options still available tomorrow I am really stocked with this pick and with the direction we seem to be taking. Only disappointment for me is Cooper Stephens going early.

Won the Vic metro b&f with 2 mids called Rowell and Anderson in the same team. Says a lot to me.

Good mates with Bergmann who went to Port. They might have done us a favour there!

 

[StonesThrow]

He sounds the same in his pre draft interview. Monotone. Seems like a decent guy.

Just on his kicking. There was one highlight where he was running in for a shot on goal and it looked like he was going to kick on his left? Thought it was an odd style.

 

[Danger in Texas]

From what I can see from his interviews.. he seems to want to play forward even though he's been playing back... any chance he plays rnd 1?

Yeah this, specifically said in his AFC website interview that he’d love to learn off key defenders AND forwards after being asked about being mentored by Talia and Doedee... think swingman is definitely in the back of his mind

Fischer is a surname FFS. He may as well have a hyphenated surname.

 

[Deaneus!]

Calls for a song guys.

Right band, wrong song

What the fu** are you doing ******* around with the kids name in the thread title??????
Show some respect ya campaigner. He's been with us 5 minutes.
Pretty dirty about it right about now!
Dickhead.

WTF?

 

[GameofSloanes]

Also who gives a damn about how "happy" they look. Lever looked super happy.

Truth. Could easily be relief

Surely 'Paykel' becomes his nickname or any fish name that's short like Trout/Tuna

Rex, Rowie or Danger...just another fisher

 

[SuperBashBros]

We can only hope,cos I'm not sure he's the answer forward with his hard hands....gets his hands to plenty of high ball but doesn't hold onto near enough.

Inconsistent kick for goal too.

 

[Houston]

Rory Sloane cried when he was drafted to us. Might be a good sign.

I'm gonna say that's the exception that proves the rule.

 

[BACCS]

Love that video from Nicks with his parents, massive having a coach who has gone through the same thing as Fischer in moving away from home at a young age. His parents didn’t seem too fussed about him moving either.

 

[BACCS]

I'm gonna say that's the exception that proves the rule.

No it’s not. Reilly did as well, Wines’ family broke down... there’s plenty of examples.

 

[dplggr47]

Also who gives a damn about how "happy" they look. Lever looked super happy.

Yup. Pretty much all the Victorian boys have said they were upset or cried about having to move interstate away from home. Some stayed long term, some leave. Just have to pick best available and hope it works out.

Worst draftee interview I've ever seen. He all but took the jumper off and spat on it.

I thought that was excellent.

 

[Draft Bored]

I thought that was excellent.

Yeah that's just how he talks. Watch his other draft videos prior to being selected.

Looks great.

That's a helluva lot better than Brett ****ing Burton being the one to do the meet and greet.

 

[Samcro24]

I thought that was excellent.

It was a pisstake, interview was fine.

 

[kulak]

McAsey seems fine. First KPP on our list capable of taking a contested mark since Lever.

I’m certainly not going to be rushing to judgement based on a couple of highlights clips. I will be waiting until at least half time of the first trial match.

 

[Jars458]

Sorrry not here enough these days to pick it

 

[FantasticShirt]

The body language thing is bullsh!t. It wouldn’t have been a surprise to McAsey he was coming to us, so why do people think he is suddenly disappointed when what he’s known for a week gets called out?

Didnt you know this board is chock full of body language experts and mind readers?

He will forever be Mc-ay-see in my mind.
