Player Watch Beau McCreery

[Jen2310]

Anyone ever seen someone drafted who's as much of a bogan as this kid? Some of the stuff he posts on his instagram is hilarious

lol I don't mind it. Adds some character.

Good interview this.

Really looking forward to the Mullet trend going out of fashion.

Sadly, I think you’ll be waiting a while.

Good interview this.

I see he has gravitated to JDG already

hopefully JDG can be a good role model

Listen to the interview..

 

[magpie_marty]

Beau will play at least 225 games and win a b+f

Good interview this.

Probably the best articulation of what happens in an AFL environment that I've seen.

 

[kpsmagpies]

Thanks for posting, was good to watch! Hopefully the lad takes his chance.

I bet the Club media managers didn’t give permission for him to do this interview

Actually a really good interview.

Refreshing to see an AFL player give honest opinions instead of being a robot, the main guy is a good interviewer too.

v entertaining interview. sounds like he's coming from a long way back though.

just loved playing with 'the lads'. only decided half way through the year to give it a serious go. Was unfit and overweight at times, running a 8.15 2km as an 18 year old. liked to sleep in and be late for school. loved the party scene.

doesnt scream professional sportsman to me, but I like his pace and raw abilities

And yet didn't he rank first across the entire SANFL in 2020 for i50 tackles? Kid's got genuine upside that has shown already.

Yeah, that was something that stuck out for me as well. Not many of his answers were what you'd expect from a highly driven professional young sportsman, but I'll give him and our recruiters the benefit of the doubt and assume he can be taught the right behaviours.

On the contrary, that is exactly the kid you want. You want the young man that woke up and decided to apply himself and now sees the fruits of his labour, he is the type that can strive and will continue to improve.
Too many kids have lived for nothing else and can't accept that they are not as good as they think they are or can't deal with injuries or setbacks.
Mind you all the above means nothing if he is not a good person, I presume they interviewed him and he convinced them that he is a good character and wants a career with CFC.

Sounds like someone Bucks would not like

 

[Robroy22]

Bucks would LOVE that he's turned himself around Dave....(if that's what he's done...lol) for mine he's quick and effective and we'll find out what he's like in the future. In the old terms we'd call him a "goer"

As long as he stays on the Straight and Narrow and be a Robot

TD constant repetition builds muscle memory, which in turn allows the player to concentrate on finding and exploiting opportunities rather than concentrating on mere technique.

Hopefully Bucks has moved on from cutting loose anyone whose character he doesn't like and coaches the players he has. There has been too much waste at Collingwood.

I would not get my Hopes up

 

[Jen2310]

Sounded to me that he had matured alot in 2020 compared to his draft year. Clearly put a lot more time and effort into his footy to get noticed. And by more than 1 club so was doing something right

 

[HFF]

Ripping interview.
Just to get that insight, not scripted, just naturally was unreal.
