Player Watch Will Hoskin-Elliott

[Buckleys Jocks]

I don't get the carry on about the price tbh. I get that GWS are practically giving away their list cloggers to free up space but the fact that they held out for a good pick for WHE and that we were willing to oblige leads me to think that both clubs rate him a lot higher than the others that are being shipped out.

Any chance we could leave the complaining about how he got here to another thread, and actually welcome him in this thread?

Welcome Will. Looking forward to seeing him in the black and white.

Had Problem with all the Welcome Threads this Trade Period. Kind of Pathetic

 

[jathanas]

I'm not going to moan'n'groan about what we paid if he can live up to his potential. He's young and has the ability to transform our forward line next year.

Welcome to our warm and caring supporter base Will.

Happy with this trade, he definitely has potential and I think he'll do well for us

 

[BEEG]

Pies were always getting him, I am pretty happy about this even after the disaster that was today.

and Type of player we need. He has Pace and Loves to Run and Carry. Add Pace which we lack

But we had to pay what we did as North Yet Again was Trying to steal a Player we wanted

Are you suggesting you wouldn't cuddle Treloar if given the chance? What kind of fan are you? SMH

 

[danielnajdek]

Why are they cuddling?

I'd be cuddling his gf. Lol.

 

[danielnajdek]

Look I'm glad to get him but I'm just disappointed that we gave a 2nd rounder considering GWS were giving players away for free.

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

I agree. He looks to hardly get the Ball but Hopefully at Collingwood we can Fix That. We Fixed Aish who had same Problem early in the Season

And not even AFL but NEAFL stats. Even less impressive.

That's hilarious.

Slip on the trackie dacks, slip off the moccasins, Netflix and chill.

But everyone said they wanted him yesterday and now we get him they become Negative

We have the potential for a real exciting forward line:

HF: Howe Mayne Elliot
FF: Fasolo Moore WHE

Opposition might as well just throw a bunch of step-ladders out to defend this.

Welcome to Collingwood, WHE!




P.S. Not actually advocating moving Howe from the backline. I find Mayne's forward pressure exciting.

 

[sideswipe]

You guys are missing the big picture. When WHE plays his first game, it will be the fanciest name we have had at the club since Hector Lingwood-Smith in 1922.

I understand Alfred Andrew-Street was our only other hyphenated player, however he is disqualified as his name sounds like it should be in the Melways.

great pickup top gun

 

[sr36]

a lot to live up to now, welcome W.H.E aboard

You do realise that that pick is likely to be somewhere between 25 and 35? Do you have massive expectations on someone drafted in that range?

 

[muzzy2]

Heard he's twice the player Jamie Elliott is.....

Got this feeling that being back in Melbourne, playing on the MCG and being with Treloar is going to bring the best out of Will. Really excited we've added him.

 

[Hong Kong Pie]

Welcome, Will! Good strong, go long.

 

[Seedsfan]

Only worthwhile recruit of this trade period but when you take in to account what other players went for we paid overs

 

[Kirby]

I really rate this kid and rapt to get him.

I have a feeling the naysayers will be eating their words.

My prediction is that no-one will be complaining about the price in 12 months time.
