Toast Fremantle's 2nd 2016 Rookie Draft Pick: Luke Strnadica [Pick #21]

[Swan Districts Kid]

Apparently Strnadica is also a very good cricketer, & his foot skills / hands below his knees defy his height.
I think the attitude thing relates more to a lack of motivation (than a bad attitude). Apparently, the AIS had repeated talks with him during 2016 asking him if he was fair dinkum about footy.

I'm stoked we got him. Just need to beat the attitude out of him and we've got ourselves a cheap tall.

I think i've posted about him before. I know a few of his mates, and they're all like that. But the older ones have turned it around pretty quickly especially once out of school & given some responsibility.

Maybe he had a blister

 

[Silent Alarm]

So basically this kid doesn't do beach runs on Christmas like Tom Scully and probably likes having beers and talking rubbish with his mates down the pub?

Fire him!

Prefer Rowan but st kilda got him early. But because deluca and grey is still on freo list , maybe dica will be good.

Strnadica > Petrie

Didn't this place get bombed in the Balkans War?

 

[WilloTree]

Love this pick. Go get 'em Luke.

 

[mightymouse75]

It will be a shark attack.

You just have to learn how to get his name right. Like this:

'Str' (as in strudel - but of you're good enough, give that 'r' a little roll).
Then no break (don't try and put a vowel sound in there!) onto 'na' (as in 'nuh - piss off mate kind of 'nuh').
Then finally 'ditza' (that 'c' makes a 'tz' sound).

So:

Strrrr-nuh-ditza

 

[kingswood71]

Looks like a pretty good pick up

Does freo have any east freo players other then Strnadica?

You and I spoke about this bloke, And I knew freo will get him, Surprised he lasted until the rookie draft too. For Meima and this goes for everyone on here too That has seen my posts in the last few months about Luke Strnadica.

I have said this story to a few people on here. For anyone that hasn't heard about this, I will tell you the Story......

1st off, Strnadica is a Croatian last name. I have spoken To Strnadicas parents at the Adelaide Casino back in July. They are both passionate freo fans and yes They also are close mates with Cam McCarthys family too. Strnadicas parents were in Adelaide back in July because their son Luke played with the WA under 18s vs The SA under 18s.

WA got belted that day but one of the few positives that day is Luke Strnadica kicked 3 of WAs 6 goals. I have seen him play. I recokon he will be a handy player.

I want dibs on him as my Buddy.

 

[Dockernut]

I'll be backing him in but gee his combine results were ordinary, very slow, no agility and an average leap. If he can mark and kick straight, then I'll be happy.

He can. Can clunk on the lead and kick long goals. Athleticism is overrated. Just ask my rapidly ageing physique.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if some of these kids dog it at the combine knowing they've been told they will be rookied to stay home. Probably not but never know.

33goals in 12 games for colts 2015 is promising. someone on 6pr was suggesting freo was hiding strnadica in east freo like we did with luke mcpharlin?

 

[scon]

We got Elvis back off Hawthorn so likely the 6PR spruiker was confused.
Think it's a requirement.
Or maybe I just don't remember it?

No. He said he had a blister.

 

[mightymouse75]

Would be good if he was hiding his attributes. Essendon players have been doing it for years.

Or be Laverde and be a douche to all recruiters except dodoro.

If were hiding McPharlin at the Sharks we didn't do it very well...

Had to get him back from Hawthorn.

He played one game, kicked 8 goals and went on holiday.

Nice work Lukey Mac!
