Resource Potential Port Adelaide father son players

[gbear]

Gavin & Tex Wanganeen say "Hi"

Thankfully not really a loss this far.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Thankfully not really a loos this far.

Wasn't even a choice really. We didn't pursue him.

 

[Haggas]

Does anyone have a list of FS and NGA potentials this year?
2x Burgoyne
Montgomery
Francou (are there 2?)
Benny Barrett
Gillon Wakelin

Can see a Philippou, Cochrane and Borlace amongst other names in the U18s

Dougie Cochrane & Jevan Phillipou aren't eligible for us unfortunately

Felt to me like they were making it as clear as they could without burning bridges that we were second choice.

 

[Macca19]

If his name was Tex Smith he’d not even have been considered for an afl spot at all. Feel good factor only

 

[DaTBird187]

I think some of those fathers sons are in our NGA but not father son eligible. I assume Leys falls into this category. Can't see why he would be NGA.

On SM-G975F using BigFooty.com mobile app

He qualifies as a Port NGA as Brian once has a stopover in Qatar on his way back from a European holiday.

 

[DaTBird187]

Looked odd when he was deliberately hitting up short passes, but more conventional when he was kicking long.

Would like to see a set shot, but if it works it works?

The Gryan Effect

 

[Tibbs]

We had the choice to pursue him though! ... Rightly chose not to.

Scouting notes from U18 game MOTR in Round 1:

#21 Rome Burgoyne
Defender | 182cm | 29/08/2006

Smooth moving and well drilled, Burgoyne’s running on the outside was a balance of power and poise, able to size his options up further up the ground. Burgoyne’s want to create new avenues in transition was prominent in his running patterns further up the ground. Along with Burgoyne’s six rebound 50s, he was able to push further up the ground with his physicality to break through congestion and offer himself as a handball option in transition.

Sounds like a Farrell replacement.

Any ideas on where these lads are likely to fall in the draft?

Ben Francou with a good underage U18 game on the weekend. Hopefully he keeps progressing.

Thought exactly the same before seeing your post.

“Create new avenues of transition” Carn

 

[Holden Hillbilly]

Agree. Unless he has a breakout under 18 championship.

Yes.

And back the year before.

Yeah big championships for him, missed most of last year through injury so hopefully has a good year this year

Outside 50 at this stage.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

I think it is the year to grab some el cheapo Father and Sons.

Hopefully a few of these sonnavaguns are ripping it up or at least have the potential to rip it up and will do so after we draft them.

Sounds like the Vics must have no more Pick 1 Academy kids coming through.
