This guy was a freak as a bottom age player about 2-3 years ago at oakleigh chargers, but was like 2 days away from being draft then the following year didn't get drafted. correct me if im wrong, but i think he plays for trinity now in the amo's. can anyone tell me about his season this year? will he get drafted?
 
Saw him play for Old Trinity against St Bernards in the A grade prelim. He was cut up by Chris Goullet, another talented kid who was not drafted. Had a good season overall, worth a look for a rookie list spot.

Yep - Nevs had a very good season finishing 3rd in our B&F behind Abe Williams (Bullants) and Andrew Ramsden (AAFC Captain), and if he doesn't get drafted/rookied is most likely going to play at Box Hill to further his footy. Outside chance of him playing at Trinity again but probably not for a couple of seasons.
 
Should have got drafted. KIcks both feet better than most footballers going around and is in the Leon Cameron mould.

If anyone took him they would not be disappointed.
 
No, by AFL standards he's to short and to slow. That doesn't mean he's not an excellent amateur footballer.
 
Your the worst pieman! go sell some pies you loser. Too short too slow, heard the so many f.u.c.ken times!!!!
 
You think he will? November 20 all will be revealed, and when he isn't drafted that will make you the loser Sensation and you can go back to your job of counting the coconut sprinkles on lamingtons.

Al Neville is a star.
if you ask me what he was like two years ago wen i was watchin him play at oakleigh i would have said he was going to be an AFL superstar.. but then he didn't get drafted! does anyone know the story bout him when he was a bottom ager? cause tere were talks of him going real early that draft and something happened. was it his age?
 
apparently he concentrated more on school and was just very unlucky. might be drafted this year after good season with old trin.

Pretty standard story really. He wasn't a genuine midfielder, nor could he play key positions. He was basically a specialist HBF and the AFL clubs want those sort of guys to be very very quick with great kicking. Neville was a bit slow.

Heaps of players do well at junior level and find that there isn't really an AFL position for them.
 
why is it that every time neville has been mentioned in my life, the conversation has degenerated into neville vs goullet?
