Player Watch Harvey Harrison

[lenny20]

He just knows the right thing to do. And amazingly, this is a rare attribute in an AFL footballer

 

[Scodog10]

He just knows the right thing to do. And amazinlgly, this is a rare attribute in an AFL footballer

Incidentally I think it’s a trait shared by Sullivan, but for mine it’s the physical traits that separate them.

 

[windchimes]

I reckon we have one here.

He works hard and uses his pace and footy smarts well to get to the right spots and do the very right thing when he gets his hands on it.

Really looking forward to watching him build in this side.

 

[nahnah]

Fly just called him an AFL player.

Fly loves him, he is the most Collingwood player under Fly you can find imo. Not high disposal but high impact, burst speed and power, strong over the footy and smart

 

[memoryofmchale]

I’ve been saying it all year, Harvey is something special.

Smart, works hard, reads the play, unselfish but not to the point he has no responsibility. Elite. Simply elite.

Just in the Nick of time he made assist of the year and won the game.

I bought a #36 guernsey this week for a reason and it’s because of his attitude.

 

[HFF]

He’s a player.
You can see it.

Was involved all day
And had some absolute clutch moments at both ends of the ground in dying moments to boot and didn’t wilt.

He should be given more game time week to week and was great that he wasn’t sub tonight

And it’s not about him.

 

[CheckerTrade666]

Can see this guy being a low disposal winner, but it doesn’t really matter because his decision making is almost always spot on, pretty rare for a player who’s played only 6 games. Can also kick a goal or 2 which is handy.

 

[Harry O]

I thought he showed plenty of potential at afl level last season and he has gone to a new level this season

 

[danielnajdek]

You could tell he had it when watching him last year in the VFL. Was a class above.

 

[3rdMan]

Looks good in the Adams role up forward, minus the midfield rotations. Wins the ball in close and uses it well.

Beau was pretty good in the middle today, so think we'll see more of HH for a while, especially with a couple of mids out.

 

[Harry O]

A great tap on by Harvey to set up the winning goal

 

[Kreme Pie]

HH belongs.
Smart, quick, clean.

He was everywhere tonight. Who set-up Sully?

HH.

Smart footballer playing as part of the team. Sure, he mightn’t be dazzling with a five goal haul but I’d rather him over a clown like Ginni.

 

[Kirby]

His attributes shine at the higher level. He’s very gifted athletically.

I thought this last year too. I think he can hold his place.

 

[lethalburns]

has very good instincts and all the tools.

dare I say it, I think we might have found one with this guy.

Has potential to be an elite half forward and scope for midfield growth.

A great tap on by Harvey to set up the winning goal

go watch his positioning & intercept mark in our D50 (deep into Q4) with McKay kicking it in and HH surrounded by Blues

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Is it my imagination or did he have a great summer in the gym? Seems a lot stronger and bigger this year.

 

[Daicosian silk]

Is it my imagination or did he have a great summer in the gym? Seems a lot stronger and bigger this year.

Was always pretty well built but looks like a real bull out there now. A bull with skills.
A bull with a big future

 

[Chrispiesssss]

He’s best 22 in my opinion.

13 disposals.
5 score involvements.

75% TOG.

 

[whiskeytown]

HH was unlucky not to have more senior minutes last year… and has had to wait a while for his first full senior game this year

Time for Fly to back him in and pablo disco bar ’just play him’ each week

He might have a quieter game along the way… but so do the veterans.. and they get a free pass for it…

but so long as he is showing the endeavour…build HH up to 50 AFL games in the same way they pumped games into young Maynard and Quaynor…

Back the talent in with this kid … and regenerate the ageing senior line up a little as a bonus

Credit again to the VFL watchers on here who spotted his potential early, before I did

 

[Mollythedolly]

Bringing the defensive effort that was missing last year in his games this year. Bodes well.

 

[tom_longeron]

Seemed a lovely lad as well from the Roaming Brian bit

 

[jimmy35]

Like this kid a lot. Spunky little dude with attitude and skills.

 

[Soups]

It’s exciting to see this young bloke rise up the ranks. Hope he has a big break out year soon and take over as a full time mid.
