Player Watch #44: Cameron Zurhaar - [AFL.com] NM offers 5yr deal - CZ interest from SYD/GC - CZ mgr says 'wants to see improvement' & 'team success'

Jy says Hi

He has shown more than Jy at this stage.

 

[North Viking]

He has shown more than Jy at this stage.

I agree. Though I don't think they are playing Jy in the right spot. He should be played on the wing, get him in the game more. Clearly has the run and composure with possessions. He's a nice kick as well. Play him on the wing for last 2 games. Nothing to lose. Especially given we have Zurhaar and sugar as small forwards in the side.

Jy says Hi

If Jy says "Hi" what does Duck say? :sternlook

I know we love overrating our young players and comparing them to guns, but I see a bit of Toby Greene about him.

Absolute bull who doesn't take a backward step.

Or it could just be the Jay Neagle "butchers hook" nose...

 

[Kimbo]

I know we love overrating our young players and comparing them to guns, but I see a bit of [Insert star player's name here] about him.

Right out of the BigFooty playbook adas!

Quack.

Easiest question I've had all day.

 

[MrBlueandWhite]

How underwhelming was the commentary for his first goal? It also happened to be an absolute ripper!

 

[Heaps of fun]

It was pure class. Most of the goals better than that are flukish.

He plays for us, right?

 

[ferball]

Its been mentioned by someone else before but on the weekend there were one or two moments when he looked like Arch.

All he has to do now is play like him for 300ish games.

 

[Tectonic]

Anybody see the youtube video on NMFC page with the kids running a restaurant for a night?

You can tell a lot about someone by how they carry themselves in a kitchen. Definite swagger about this boy and looks like a leader to the other kids in the side.

The hype is real on Zurhaar. If he stays with the club he will be one of our better performers soon enough.

 

[brettman135]

Great year for Cam to get a taste of AFL footy, hopefully can really have big preseason of running to build up the tank.

 

[ferball]

Has anyone seen the clubs thank you to members vid?

 

[archereleven]

A lot to like about CZ. A lot.

 

[remfan101]

Watching recent videos he seems to have slotted into the role of "arrogant but hilarious little prick who won't shut up, constantly takes the piss and is always up and about". Every footy club has one, so well done CZ for finding his role

[gustev]

That's a cracking interview.

 

[SMaturin]

The magical mo returneth...

 

[brettman135]

The don't argue comment is brilliant, bit of swagger about young Cameron.

 

[Firestarter]

Don't mess with the Zurhaar.

Probably right but I think Scott has protected his light frame......plenty of time.

 

[ozzyoslo]

Just watched the interview.......loved the attitude, he's been unleashed....huge upside !!
Dustin who ?? Im tipping he'll beeline Martin next tuggers game. To make a point.

 

[Twinkletoes]

I had a chat with Hodge about this bloke after he pumped him up in the commentary box a week after he'd played against him. He loves the way Cam goes about it. Said he's the sort of kid he'd have taken under his wing at Hawthorn and tutored for as long as it took for him to reach his potential. He said he saw a lot of himself in the way he goes about it as a young bloke, albeit one was a numero uno selection and the other's a rookie, which I reminded him. Still impressed he said.

Can't wait to see what he can produce with a fully hardened and ripped AFL physique.

 

[Snake_Baker]

This bloke is another reason why we don't need to sell the farm for Stringer.

 

[DunderHead]

This guys will make it.
