Hey all, new thread outlining list changes and other off season news for Box Hill next year.

First up, hopefully Benny Cavarra back next year

 

[caseman2]

The following I would be pushing hard to resign as senior players noting Mascitti has retired -
Brown
Phillips
Porter
H Beasley

Players from opposition teams I would be interested in -

Fordham (Frankston)
Mynott (Fanskton and ex-Box Hill)
Stoddard (Franston)
Jepson (Coburg)

Will also be interesting to see what Cavarra and Parson do after missing the season with knee injuries

 

[dermott]

Resign or re-sign?

 

[Easy Slips Catch]

Beasley has announced his retirement from the VFL.

 

[stemline]

Stu Horner underrated. I'm hoping he goes around again and gets an injury free run at it.

 

[caseman2]

What about bringing Howey back as a playing assistant?

And if we happen to draft Calsher Dear - any chance we get Harry to Box Hill where the siblings could play together?

 

[streetspirit]

Does Harry even still play?

 

[stemline]

Ethan Phillips is a good signing!

Will train with HFC over summer, chance for SSP.

 

[streetspirit]

Great news, couldn’t get past the code sports paywall to see myself

 

[houdinihuddo]

Does Harry even still play?

Sadly Harry had to give playing away due to ongoing issues with both his knees. Post footy, this year he’s been enjoying some travelling .

Ive been told Stu Horner will play. Stu is a great clubman and we missed his leadership and strong one on one work. Also, post ACL injuries Ben Cavarra, Ben DeBolfo and James Parsons are tracking well.

Yes, I'm looking forward to what DeBolfo can offer. Rated his season for the Bullants in 2022. Just a cruel injury.

 

[The Jet From Poowong]

is he related to the former journo Tony

 

[moginie]

is he related to the former journo Tony

That's a question for people closer to the action than me.

 

[streetspirit]

Trudgeon departs

 

[streetspirit]

Waack also on the move?

 

[streetspirit]

Pairs of Browns?

 

[caseman2]

Disappointed to lose Trudgeon but cant fault him for wanting more games and game time - won’t be an issue at Coburg

 

[streetspirit]

Porter is the first official re-signing of the season

. I spoke to Cal at the draft combine and he said the only key BHH listed departures will be Damien Mascitti and Hugh Beazley. I think Ned Long will be a big loss.

 

[caseman2]

You heard it here first - just joking - but I did hear a whisper that if not re-drafted, we have interest in Jack Bytel from St Kilda.
Struggled to play seniors and without seeing any Sandy games, on numbers alone it appears he had a very solid season averaging almost 30

 

[caseman2]

Good interviews with Cal Porter and James Parsons. I spoke to Cal at the draft combine and he said the only key BHH listed departures will be Damien Mascitti and Hugh Beazley. I think Ned Long will be a big loss.

Great insight HH - does that mean Ed Phillips will be back as I don’t think he is a confirmed re-signing at this stage?
Agree re Ned, will be interesting to see where he and Jeka end up

Paul Amy's latest has Waack definitely gone and Tyler Brown

's put Box Hill on his draft nomination form, so good enough for me.

Coburg have announced Liam Serong going over also

 

[Rudi Gilham]

Emerson Jeka has joined Essendon's VFL side.
