Player Watch #44: Cameron Zurhaar - [AFL.com] NM offers 5yr deal - CZ interest from SYD/GC - CZ mgr says 'wants to see improvement' - out vs GEEL (calf)

[Harris 10]

I love the way this bloke goes about it.
His attack on the ball and man is exactly what we need, he likes to hurt blokes.
He was so good in that Ziebell goal.

Must play every week.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Can see his career progressing similar to Jed’s. Start off as a tough and tumble half forward who occasionally bags a few goals, before transitioning into a contested battering ram midfielder.

There is a lot to like about this bloke. Love the fact that when he gets the footy up the field he always looks to move the ball fast with his booming kick.

Only a matter of time before he has a breakout game.

 

[Snake_Baker]

His attack on the contest was never in question, and his improved fitness gets him to a lot more of them now.

What you saw last night was similiar to what a handful of us saw in the VFL practice match v Port Melbourne when he physically imposed himself on the contest in the last quarter to the extent where he almost dragged us across the line.

He goes on to the senior list this year.

 

[Harris 10]

He compliments Turner nicely.

I liked his ruck work!

 

[remfan101]

Can someone get some footage of him winning a tap in the centre? I half missed it but it looked unreal

Consummate team man.

Forward pressure, undersized ruckman.
Just wait til he starts hitting the scoreboard more!

 

[LuvtheKangas]

Love what he brings to the team. Don't want to see him in the ruck, though.

Will be interesting what we do when we play sides like Port etc who are playing 2 genuine rucks.

Love this guy. Absolute beast. The pressure that he and Jed brought into the team last night was way beyond any possession numbers. Totally changed the mindset of the team. Just shows that we do have some genuine depth. Just need the right players in there, providing them with opportunities to develop to their potential.

I didn't see the game - did he really ruck at times? Isn't he only 189cm?

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Easily one of my favourite "fringe" players.

Him being in the side is a good thing.

Yep. Actually won a tap from the centre bounce too.

Clearly adds some intangibles around the ball.

Wants to hurt blokes.

Has a lot of upside.

Pretty bloody impressive leap from Zurhaar

Lol, Jenkins had quite the highlight reel last night.

 

[shimaburnsgrieg]

CZ is Archeresque in his attack on the ball and opponent.

Just needs continuity to get his confidence to the level where he can start grabbing his marks.

Must remain in the team (and should have already been in ...but let's not go there.)

This is the guy that should be wearing the number 11

Just about to post the same thing, based on the same quoted post.

Next year perhaps?

From memory, he got up again after that and put on a tackle! Pretty sure we got it forward for a shot, potentially a goal.
Even better.

So awesome.

That's going straight to the 's**t hot North vids' room.

If Kyron keeps developing, we could use him in this role.
