Player Watch Harvey Harrison

[BigVic]

Good luck young man. Congrats on making your debut in Perth.

 

[SchuPie]

They finally listened…

You shouldn’t claim players as you’re own but…MY GUY!!

 

[jimmy35]

Great news for the young bloke, all the best.

 

[sideswipe]

Wonder if he has siblings. Do they have alliterative names also? If not, are they jealous?

 

[Go Woods]

Congratulations young fella,
Any highlights of Harvey, never seen him play tbh.

 

[jefffff34]

He came to my school with Begg at the start of the year for some clinics. He’s a real good guy.

All I know is Fly has been a big fan since last year and only injury delayed his debut. I recall he said he modelled his game on Dangerfield. I was impressed by the bravado it takes to say that! Go Harvey!

 

[Obese Arachnid]

I thought it would hardly ever happen.

 

[Soups]

Love the double H! Good luck son

congrats to him.

He's playing because he's been close (when fit).

With Elliot not playing, we need the defensive pressure & speed Elliot brings.
If Reef hadn't hurt himself, suspect he would have played.

But since he is maybe touch and go, the club probably thinks "why not!"

Also (and just as important):
He's OOC this year and the club needs to find out how he looks at the level (given he is fit!).

Same as they did with Chugg last year (gave him 2 games against lower oppositions to see how he went).
If he gets cut this year and didn't get a game....would be shattering for him.

Doesn't matter if he shows glimpses of being at the level, its exactly this sort of thing that has changed our culture.

They rate him. Its why he would have debuted last year if he didn't get covid.
They would want to see what he can do of course as well. And its the perfect time for him to debut with elliott out.

Hgo hwell, HH!

Damn, i wish i was in the goalkicking comp. still so i could pick him - i foresee a couple at least.

Can’t believe his parents didn’t call him Harry.

 

[AmericanMustard]

Always good to see a debutant! But as someone doesn’t watch much VFL anymore, what sort of lad am I looking at here?

 

[pablo disco bar]

Rest Hill and play murley also

Rest Hill and play murley also

We’d be close to eagles outs if we rest anyone else Pablo. Already missing a bunch

I just like debutants

I'm also really keen on squad rotation

Dont know a lot about Harvey

Anyone able to give a brief description ?

Position , Plays like , strengths etc

Doesn't do much in the VFL, but what he does creates goals. Really good front and centre crumber - good positioning, clean hands and the power to create space when he gets it.

Stocky but powerful with excellent pace, and questionable kicking. I would compare him to Swanny in terms of athleticism, but he is more a half-forward than midfielder at this stage so games aren’t particularly similar.

Gee, he really is like Dangerfield

Of course they rate him!!
Anyone who has watched vfl or seen him train would understand the attributes he brings.
Vfl form (IMO) is extremely subjective. It’s about roles.

You don’t get to be emergency like he has been over the past 12 months without fulfilling the role asked.

I think he will make people take notice.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Just you wait Harvey Harrison

Agree.
If it wasn't for his hammy issues and covid, he would have debuted and played some decent number of games. People may say.. he doesn't do a lot -- But what he does do makes you see the AFL qualities he has. Just screams AFL
His stoppage work. His ability to manufacture goals from them. His exposiveness and pace. He'll be better with better delivery into the forward line.

Really happy for Harvey to get a gig. I don't want to see him start as the sub though. Should always start debutants on the ground. He'll bring pressure for the forward line and maybe a run on the wing at some point. Good luck Harvey!

Don't think these coaches will debut kids as the sub. So I think he starts.
