Contract Status: Out of contract 2024
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 15, Zach Package

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

Can kick on both feet and has long, flowing hair. A Cox/Perko hybrid?

'Half-back, lockdown role and on the wing' sounds like he's gonna be ... playing as a half-back/small defender.

Which we definitely need.

It is kind of hilarious after the first half of this thread is all "big mid woohoo" maybe he'll get to that point one day.

Did any club take a big bodied mid? I'm not familiar with everyone drafted.

No idea, me either. eDPS is the guy for that sort of thing

 

[Duckworth]

Probably unlikely to pull a star out of the MSD. Looks like they've gone for a role-player - someone that will do all the team things asked of him - smother, tackle, block and defend. I'm OK with that.

Nope not a single one picked

 

[Zach Package]

In all honesty it seems like we’ve looked at Perkins (and who wouldn’t, he’s an absolute stud muffin) and gone, let’s find the player most alike in physique and style.

A recruiting strategy I hope continues. Welcome Bull

Bombers have recruited for the future .. this guy is a tackling machine ... has a good physical frame which can only improve ... great kick and vertical leap ... and plenary of courage and tenacity ... won’t play AFL this year but look out for him 2022... with combine beautifully with the midfield we have at the moment ... can see him and Perkins being similar footballers and I think Archie plays a bit like Clayton Oliver .... gun

hawthorn pick 2

184 cm isn't big bodied

 

[eDPS]

184 cm isn't big bodied

He is stocky though, closest thing to a big bodied mid taken that’s for sure

 

[VelvetSledge]

My wife will love this when she sees that we have two of them.

And I don’t blame her

Good having useful people around the club.

 

[Gabe251]

2 tackles, a smother and up for the link up play...all in a row
oh my

Think this is the type of player Rutten loves. You can have fault, bur you better run at opposition with NO fear.
