Player Watch Welcome to Hawthorn, Tyler Brockman!

Talent is only one component that recruiters look at. Desire, work ethic, , leadership ability, off field stuff etc have much more bearing on whether a talented player becomes successful in senior footy

This times xxxxxxxx infinity.

In my younger days I used to play competition snooker in a comp of about 80 A grade players and there were a dozen or more consistent 100 break players, so it was a tough high standard Comp.

There was a slightly younger bloke that had more natural ability in his little finger than I had in my whole body, he could knock in 60s 70s and 100 breaks in a flash and make it look effortless.

But I was always ranked higher and beat him many more times than he beat me, because I had a greater desire.

I worked and practiced for about 3/4 hours a day and he would rock up and just think he was going to win on pure talent, not just against me but even less talented players than I was.

There are a hell of a lot of people that are blessed with natural talent, but it only gets you so far.

Maybe you should take your own advice

I have... a long time ago.

I was referring to the pretending to know what you are talking about, highlights package or otherwise.

Seems a little low I thought with all the work I'd put in this year I was at least an 18.3

If this was a more bitchy comment you'd have that 18.3

 

[Gliggin]

You keep saying that but you have no idea what I have watched.

Maybe you should stop watching highlights packges and pretend you know what you are talking about.

You’re right I don’t know what you watched. You could be a recruiter and have watched all their games live and you still make a statement of fact which at least 2 clubs see differently. Do you know more than them? Doubt it.

Not having a go it’s an opinion forum, just not an opinion I agree with.

Also, you have no idea what I’ve watched or know, so pot kettle.

Off season board conflict is nothing but exciting
Regardless of how you turn out as a player Tyler, you've provided me with at least some funny comments online!
I trust him to be as good as his hair is rude- very excited!

If keeps his s**t together he will be a star .
He has all the tools

It's easy to be excited by his pace, but the most exciting thing I saw in his short clip was his ability to take a contested mark.
When I see a guy use his position and body to fend off an opponent (instead of pushing with hands), and time the arrival of the ball to stick the mark, it signals a high level of football IQ to me. Gunston is a master at protecting the drop of the ball and so are most great forwards. This kid certainly has the package of skills to make something of himself.

 

[Tuck In]

Nah.


He’s indigenous.

Is right...if you are not sure always pop in an 'e'

Never mentioned his pace brother although that’s part of it .
Like you san can mark , has a step , can hit targets , has a long leg , high IQ , quick decesion maker .
aggresive .

Seems pretty well developed - more so than Morris who got games this year. No reason why we couldn’t see him in the afl side in 2021 for a few games if he has a big preseason.
