Player Watch Harvey Harrison

[JB1975]

His pace would be a standout. Topped the 20m sprint at draft combine.

Questions have been on disposal, but he's impressed with composure so far.

As a 19yo he has pace, strength and composure. That's a great start for a late pick breaking into a top team and playing in front of big crowds. Has exceeded my expectations so far and looks a good prospect.

He does have composure, which I relate to my observation that he just seems to fit at the level.

His pace isn't a standout as yet. I'm not saying it isn't there, just that he's been a reliable link and hasn't had the chance to take a burn.

Did Harv come on today as a sub?

Did Harv come on today as a sub?

Yes, Howe was subbed off half way through the third

Did Harv come on today as a sub?

Yep but did not do much

 

[Jen2310]

Its a tough caper being a sub.

 

[Chief Ten Beers]

Its a tough caper being a sub.

Only Ben "Super Sub" Kennedy could do the role some justice.

 

[Jen2310]

These 4 games would have done his development wonders. He will be a player.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

He’s been okay, and he can go back with some confidence now, knowing he’s only out of the side because De Goey is available.

Was fairly anonymous but could have had a goal when it was a raffle between him and WHE in the goal square.

HH was filthy he didn’t get it

I don't know, I think he was more shattered from the run it took him to get there.

Its not a definite that Harrison makes way for DeGoey. Maynard and McCreery both carrying (minor?) injuries after Suns game. It was also mentioned before the game that Mitchel was playing with neck soreness. If any of those guys are left out against Doggies Harrison could get another run.

 

[Soups]

I don't know, I think he was more shattered from the run it took him to get there.

Yeah he did bust his gut to get there.

 

[Masked Magician]

This bloke now understands the AFL level.

He will get to work in the off season and pre season and I expect him to be a serious breakout candidate in 2024.

Truly an exciting prospect.

Yeah I reckon the coaches and list management would be pretty happy with what we have seen, and know the potential of the kid. Will 100% get a new contract, and can go into next pre-season even better.

 

[ottoman]

I see "it" in him.
Will be a player.

 

[jc37]

Of all our small forwards he is behind in no order Hill, McCreery, Elliott, Ginnivan (lets say we play 3)
However I think he is the best mid prospect of all 4.
I do hope we start playing him more mid resting forward in the 2's.

yup, will be a mid-forward (so wont always be a small forward), its the role he played early on before his hammys, Think they'll re-introduce that once he feels comfortable in his body enough to play that role.

I'm a fan of Harvey. Young small forwards have it incredibly tough, but he works hard and has the right physical attributes. I didn't know what to make of him preseason, but the club clearly rated him - they know what they're doing!

He's not gonna be an elite small forward, but he could definitely be a role player like the Richmond mosquito fleet during their premierships

 

[TradeDraft]

Last Nights Game was the best Game I seen harrison play.

Used the Ball Well and Kicked a Few Goals.

Still not 100% sold on him and his Future but showed a Bit

His game in vfl last nte 100% sold me.

Kid is a jet

 

[Kes1984]

I’m sold on him too. He looked out of place now playing VFL. He’s closer to an AFL player than VFL now.

 

[No SPIN]

Elite speed, high footy IQ, kicks well both sides, good size for his age - there’s a lot to like.

 

[Jen2310]

He definitely benefited from the afl stint. We have a player here. Hopefully like Reef, they start to add some midfield time in him.
