Harry is like Cole in that he's a darkskinned brawny half-back. But the similarity ends there.
The main unsimilarity is that when when running out of halfback to get a good kick away, Cole would get chased down htb because his feet and his decisions were slow. Whereas harry, if he's started running, has momentum and agility and brut strength sufficient to burst through a few tackles and get the ball off. After that he makes a few helter-skelter decisions, but if he's prepared to back himself, the freakin Collingwood supporters of all people ought to be prepared to back him.
He played VERY good in the first half of the year - was an influential cog in the piebot machine, especially considering his experience level. He MONSTERS opponents, (I reckon he really hurts them quite often,) but glues to the law pretty well. - Nullify with Exteme Prejudice, but don't give away frees you nong! That's what he's good at. But he's still raw. Raw burst of bulk at speed...if he works out how to pass effectively, and gets cleaner hands as he grows/relaxes, then "raw burst of bulk at speed" is a pretty rad attribute for Footy still.
So yep, remembering that he was 1/2 a phenom earlier in the year, and figuring that he'll be built like Kouta on steroids in 4 years, I definately want to see if Collingwood's tracksuit department can train him into a kick-ass player. They've got zillions of dollars - god knows they might as well pour it into their eight top young players, and Harry's one... a big success for the youth devel dept this year, along with SWAN, THOMAS, HEATH ****ING SHAW, T.Cloke, Pendlebury, Rusling... and further down the list Egan and rookielisted Martin Clarke, the 17yo alleged Ronaldhino/Judd of Gaelic Footy.
there's a bunch of 8 young players that have more potential than most clubs Junior Top 8 does.
