He was nothing short of sensational for a first gamer.

Has confidence, good skills, is evasive of tackles, only had one goal kicked on him which was after he spoilt a mark and Medhurst somehow kicked it off the ground.

If we get his fitness up he'll be a gooden.

Forgive him. Having seen Tarrant all year, he could be excused for forgetting that forwards are meant to kick goals.

That goal was clements fault too, it should never have happened.

He fitted in well i thought not overawed and good defensively.

A much better effort today not even any shirking from the team.

Looked good, Egan is getting better and Heath Shaw when he spent time on the ground seemed to go alright. Three players of the future.

Looks like Lonie could be stuck at Collingwood, hard to swap someone of with a knee injury.

Played a solid first game. Very composed, went in hard, got the pill about 9-10 times, didn't turn the ball over too much and after a good start by medhurst he held him pretty well

They reckon it's a medial not an ACL ATM.
Harry looked pretty good , goes hard for the ball , nice closing speed and generally gets a fist on it.

i was very happy with how Heritier played today....that goal kicked on him, he was outmuscled by Medhurst, Harry tried to spoil with his leg in the end, and Medhurst got a freebie off the ground

he will play the last 4 games, and will definitely get promoted of the rookie list onto the senior list

Funniest moment of the day when Harry kicked that point. Must've heard about five people around me utter the same thing:

"Gee, that was a close shave wasn't it."

*If you don't understand, research Harry's origin*

It was good to see someone enthusiastic and with physical capabilities. Average footballer at this point but nowhere near the first 15 or so you'd chop. Give him another year and judge him. For a first gamer he showed some promise. He isn't slow and he isn't soft. Not sure about his kicking.

His kicking isn't technically brilliant but gets the job done.
BTW he played on Headland most of the game and guarded Medhurst a bit as well. Harry at least broke even on Headland, the type of player who when playing forward gives us alot of grief. Beat him in pretty much all 1 on 1 contests. Was prepared to run off him. He only played on Medhurst for a short period of time while his oponent Maxwell/Lonie went off or left Medhurst loose.
On the topic of Maxwell he had a very poor game down back but did some good things up forward.

I think he will be elevated, he just needs to work on second efforts as he tends to stand around after his first and doesnt re-involve himself in play, but apart from that he does play tight and is a good spolier and hasnt really been beaten much in the one on one stuff.

Id elevate davies as well, has issues but at least is willing to put his body in for the pill.

And id ******** fanning off, useless piece of ********.
