Re: Welcome Pick 18- Luke Schuey
Welcome to the WCE, from the footage I saw on youtube, he looks pretty impressive - has a few kicking worries, judging by the video.

Re: Welcome Pick 18- Luke Schuey
Luke won our best and fairest at Vic Metro. Not many people would know that because we keep that pretty in-house, but he was our most valuable player over the five games at the carnival.
We had a bit of a situation with him at the start because he collided with Jackson Trengove at a training session and he was terribly upset that Jackson then had to have a knee operation and missed the year. We actually had to get Jackson to ring him and tell him not to worry about it and that it was just one of those things that happens in football.
He's a very caring kid for his teammates, but as a player he's really hard at it. He's got good skills and is a good hard runner. When we knew we were going to have to challenge Western Australia with Daniel Rich and those sorts of players he was our number one midfielder that really had to lift up and we thought he was just outstanding.
I would liken him a little bit to Luke Ball. We didn't play Luke (Shuey) against New South Wales on the Saturday before the WA game because we were concerned that he is so intense at the ball that he might have got injured and not been able to come up for the next game.
Stats: NAB AFL Under 18 Championships Team Mt K HB D M HO T G Vic Metro 4 8.0 10.3 18.3 3.5 0.0 2.8 0.8
Draft Camp highlights:
4th shuttle run/beep test 14.4
9th agility test 8.34sec
=9th 20m sprint 2.92sec
In his own words
What sort of player are you?
I'm generally an inside player and I don't run with the ball that much. I play midfield. I generally rest forward with Oakleigh and also my school team (Marcellin College).
Strengths?
My clearance work and aerobic capacity are my two main strengths.
Weaknesses?
I've been told I've got to start kicking a few goals as a midfielder. I've also been told to get my speed under three seconds for 20m. I ran a 2.94 [at the NAB AFL Draft Camp], but those two areas.
Which AFL team do you support?
I'm a Melbourne supporter.
Which AFL player do you feel you most resemble?
I model my game around Nathan Jones. I do most of my work inside and I've got a bash-and-crash game. I like that stuff and I look up to him.
it says he was the best and fairest winner for vic metro.

Re: Welcome Pick 18- Luke Schuey
Should fit our gameplan well with his one on one ability.
Vic Metro kid though.

Re: Welcome Pick 18- Luke Schuey
nice. Sounds good. So we have naitanui, swift and shuey as inside options in the midfield, and smith as a quick outside option. Sharples and Deboer in the rookie draft IMO, give us some more outside options

Shocked the hell out of me at the time, but the more I think about it the more I like this pick. Gives us a great combination of grunt and speed in the midfield. It's players like him that win Norm Smiths.
Don't stereotype VM kids just because of Juddas. By the sounds of it, he doesn't sound like the kind of bloke that will walk out on his team mates:Should fit our gameplan well with his one on one ability.

Re: Welcome Pick 18- Luke Schuey
I really like that description from his Vic Metro coach. Another inside mid to the ones we collected last year to go with some of the speed we recruited this year. They certainly know what they want from the midfield.

Re: Welcome Pick 18- Luke Schuey
Looks a little bit like Marc Murphy from Carlton.
Not saying he has the polish but looks similar type.

Re: Welcome Pick 18- Luke Schuey
Really liked the look of this kid in the Vic M games, especially the last one against WA. Great pickup.
