News Sam Hayes signs for North Melbourne VFL

[Macca19]

What other players drafted with suspect endurance have actually gone on and forged a career?

Luke Tapscott seemed to have a lot of talent but could never develop a tank. Same could be said for Mitch Harvey and Jarrad Redden?

Wonder if there are any that have.

Matt Crouch

Giving up the Krispy Kremes probably helped.

 

[Bennie the Nurse]

Reminds me of a Young Dean Cox.

So John Hinge is our player welfare guy? He didn't play many games but we can add him to the list of ex Crows who have seen the light

Saw Hinge play for Yankalilla this year

 

[TradeDraft]

Biggest Steal alongside Nathan Murphy(Pick 39) in the 2018 Draft

So he must be the reason Chen played down there this year.

SPP was impressed with Sam's strength in tackling drills with the Rabbitohs. And like the great Jesse Ventura he don't impress easy.

Ok, didn’t know that.

The GSFL has always been very strong, would have a strong case of being the best non amateur league.

I think the AFL would probably have some say in best non-amateur or professional AFL league in the world

Surname Hayes suggests association with the concept of "hazing" (bastardisation) defined as:
Hazing (US English), initiation ceremonies (British English), bastardisation (Australian English) or ragging (South Asia) refers to the practice of rituals, challenges, and other activities involving harassment, abuse or humiliation.
The nickname "Rags" immediately stands out

Hayes best 18 year old ruckman in Ports history.

 

[Chachi]

Reminds me of a Young Dean Cox.

He reminds of Jacobs as well.
For a bloke supposedly without a tank he got to plenty of contests. I haven't looked at his stats but I thought he impacted the game. Very impressive debut.

We just need a better game to measure him by.
