Thanks Miller1971.
That’s disappointing for Thomson.
Makes you question those selecting the team, if well known good kids are missing out.
I'm pretty sure you've talked your boy down in the past, so I'd say your glasses are pretty clear.Harry is my lad, so happy to comment as best I can.
I don't think it was a travesty that he missed out, he had about 45 disposals in the first game of the state champs and pinged his hammy. He played on one leg for the next couple of games and went ok, but I would say it was generous that he was selected as a shadow based on his output over 4 days and I don't think its fair to say selectors 'got it wrong' based on what they would have seen.
He also broke his hand and pretty much hasn't played since, so probably couldn't have gone if he was selected anyway.
Not sure if I have rose coloured glasses or not, but certainly in normal circumstances he would be in the best half dozen for that age group from what I've seen. Better to have some setbacks now than when he is turning 18 though I guess.
Is he still playing midfield, or has he moved over to be a KPP?I reckon he is bang on 6'6" which i think is around 197cm. I'm 6'3" and he went past me this time last year and no signs of stopping!
Is that a school competition? If so I have seen it posted in various threads that the Qld school AFL system is a complete shemozzle.
Many good kids left out?Unsurprising given the side they picked.
