Player Watch 2023 Father Son player watch - McCabe, Dear and Maginness

[Strapping Young Lad]

Guys, I keep deleting posts referencing this, but can we move away from suggesting or making juvenile jokes about the bloodlines of players.

This is a public forum and parents of players do read here.

Come on down Calsher Dear.
Can we also pick him up this year?

On SM-S918B using BigFooty.com mobile app

Calsher Dear did this for Beaumaris u/19's on the weekend in the VAFA:

30 disposals, 18 marks, 14 goals, 6 behinds

My reaction to that news:

But in all seriousness, that is some of the best news I've heard all year. You cannot get a much better game than that from a key forward at a non-professional level, even if it's the U19s. Mind you, Beaumaris is a pretty good area for football talent, with our very own Cameron Mackenzie playing for them, and look how good he is. I'm not sure we will end up drafting him, whether that be in the National or Rookie Drafts, or signing him, but I think at the very least Mark McKenzie should be calling the Box Hill Hawks up to sign him for 2024. He has the talent.

Is Calsher Dear a rookie chance?

Shem Tatapu-esque.

Maybe. Might get to develop a bit more at Box Hill too if not.

You'd be shocked if you saw what Shem looks like now. Shocked.

Just checking but was that a typo …… u/19’s or u/9’s?

Fair game , they were my stats one season .

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

U19’s but yeah, that side had to move up a division as they were belting sides weekly.

I’m not sure you’d take too much from those games.

definitely worth a rookie list spot

Yeah its also the second div in u/19s so definitely wouldn't be playing top quality opponents

I saw a video on him. Big lad to say the least

Young Calsher is hoping to be drafted to an AFL club. Let’s hope the Hawks have seen enough potential and are keen. Good luck young man

Hopefully we can at least nominate him so if we decide not to pick him up or another club doesn’t we can at least rookie least him to play at Box hill to continue his development I feel he could be a late developer.

But may be starting to play hopefully he can finish the season off strong.

Calsher kicked another 8 in the under 19s this weekend too. Now 41 goals from 5 games. Big difference in quality but still some nice numbers…

Generally speaking, if you can’t get a game in the Coates Development League, you are not getting drafted. And if we do draft a tall forward, there may nto be a spot at BH for him either.

Sandy Dragons were on a BYE, he did not get dropped from the Coates Talent League.

Jai would beg to differ. Bye or no bye

Newk? He proves my point - didn’t play U18s and missed out on being drafted.

 

[Faraway Hawk]

McCabe is back in the top 15 prospects

every year twomey pumps up our father sons and then talks them down at trade time our offerings, rinse and repeat

Kills me.

 

[Nugett]

What’s the go with Ned Maginness? Any good, or did Finn tag him out of the game as well?

Yeap, and there are so many other examples. Maturity, growth (physical and mental), family life, economics (having to work rather than train) and the old fashioned the coach just didn't like them. What we are now starting to seeing is Coates League is just one pathway.
