Who ever gets him should consider themselves lucky.

He should be in the states playing college basketball and be worried if the LA Lakers or the Miami Heat are going to draft him.

You can't walk into MILLION dollar contracts in the AFL.
WAY too short. At six-five - that'd make him a two guard, and there's a bucket load of them going around.

Lorimer > Maric.
Can't agree with that Hoggy. Lorimer's had bad luck with injuries but at his height might get a chance I don't know. Maric has only played footy seriously for a couple of years, I think went to screening last year so there was interest from clubs then. This year he's only enhanced his draft prospects the way he's played. Plus he can go forward and take a mark as well.

I dont know much about Ivan Marics basketball background, my cousin plays VC and would be about the same age as Maric but hasnt heard of him..none of his mates have either, did he get invited to the ITcamps as a junior?
Keilor are a good unit around the U16's but tend to be overtaken at the U18 level by Dandenong, Melbourne etc who poach the better players from other clubs..Ivan ever get a invite to either?

I'm sick of all this talk about Ivan Maric! He is way overrated! He was regularly towelled up this year in the ruck.

There were many better ruckmen than him running around in the TAC cup this year!

He was only made look slightly good in patches throughout the year due to Calder being a 10 goal better side than any other team!

That was a SENSATIONAL reply. True, he was made to look better than he really is. There is no doubt Ivan will be a good player in a couple of years time.

bulletin who are you? Like how many games of Footy has Maric played in the ruck?? Do you even know??

Kingy
Maric averaged 20 points & 10 rebounds a game in VC.
He was apart of ITC (biggest waste of time ever) since under16's.
Keilor beat Tigers by 23 points during the season. Dandenong didn't even make finals. Where they even at the classic?? Where Keilor (Who aparently get overtaken by other teams at under 18 level) came 4th. Which means 4th in Australia.

Who are you know one even knows who you are??

He spent a fair amount of time in the ruck in every game i saw him play!

If he doesn't think he's a ruckman, who does he think he is...a specialist resting forward pocket player??

I doubt an AFL club would draft a player who specialised playing in the forward pocket all year just because calder thought that Neaves was a better ruckman! And he still only managed to kick 26 of Calders 1,000,000 goals!

He should go back to basketball IMO!!!
