Past 29. Cameron Polson

[Cripps 'n' Blue Bloods]

I'm jumping on the Polson train. Don't know why, but I reckon this kid could play round 1.

But yes, why not? What has Cunners done to stake a claim on a round 1 spot? More than Polson? Yeah, fair enough, but now I'm just arguing with myself.
I stand by it, but there's still a lot of track work and NAB games to go and much can change.

Im a bit the same. I just reckon he will play. He's an impressive kid all around. Like to see a midfield of Cripps SPS Cuningham Polson Fisher & Murphy all rotating through the forward line. With Byrne out and Tuohy gone Gibbs could be an option off HB

 

[rp84]

I think Polson will be a lot further advanced than many expect. Absolute awesome SOS dodginess kept him off the radar of other recruiters. I hope he will be a regular early on too.

Hoping all these draftees get to play NAB and just dominate.

 

[therubbernub]

I agree. cam looks like one of the steals of the draft

 

[slashin_velvet]

Wouldn't be shocked if Silvagni noticed him in a game Jack was playing. If he won the B&F at Haileybury, he was playing in the 1sts team, and might have played against Jack (who played most of the season for Xavier from memory).

Hasn't played in a while and like Cuningham he might look good in training but I doubt he'll be anywhere close to playing in the first half of the season.

Seems a naturally attacking player, so I think he's got a chance to push quickly for a spot off HF.

Not sure if it's been mentioned or not but I've been told Hawthorn had told him they'd take him at their first pick (76?).

Same bloke also mentioned that Mitchell Lewis (the guy they ended up taking) is an absolute spud.

 

[ferrisb]

I still can't believe they recruited Mitchell Lewis.

I'll keep an eye out next year for a Yarran Henderson.

Lucky we did that "favour" for Hawthorn during trade period then.

Makes you wonder whether sos knew this when he made the trade...

If they're fit they'll get their chance. We know what we're going to get from our senior players, why not give the kids a chance.

 

[Stiffler's Dad]

3 Kane Lucas's slip through and we don't draft him. Plenty of players have been told they would be drafted.

Don't you mean 3 buffalo girls?
I hear they can go around the outside but can't play on the inside.

For those who want some more highlights from Cam's year at Haileybury/Sandy - he reminds me of Nathan Hrovat in a lot of ways.

Has leadership, lightnight speed and agility, excellent reader of the ball, good goal-sense and finishing, is a terrier when tackling... what's not to like?!

Very early, but I'm claiming him as #MyBoy If he can get his body right for preseason, he could surprise a few and give Wright, Sumner and co a run for their money in 2017.

Watching these Haileybury highlights CP reminds me of a mix between Campo (later in career when more aggressive) and Murph - can only hope...

Was pretty funny. Apparently he wore 35 too.

would rather a Judd Koutafides

the world ain't ready.......

Welcome Campo (hope that name sticks) and Polson family. Hope you are enjoying the colder waters and bonding of the Tassie trip. You'll be a valuable cog in the team.

 

[Lace_Out]

There is an article in my kids primary school newsletter congratulating Cam as he went there. He was house captain in year 6 and an outstanding footballer.
Quality ingrained in this kid it seems.

Por que no los dos?

I know its mainly footage of him cutting up school kids (and he's clearly a level or two above them) but wow. We had a (Freo) AFL listed player play for UWA against us in the Murdoch v UWA footy match and he was doing the same thing (slicing us up and making us look silly). Just clearly at a whole different level above.

Christ he moves like Murphy. Its freakishly similar. Havent seen anything like it since Jack last year (who moves exactly like his dad).
