Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn : Will McCabe!

[Topiary]

Was he on managed minutes on the weekend?

Yes

 

[peetoo]

Laconic or lacka daisical?

Just looks like it comes easily to him

It will be interesting to see if he gets any time in the forward half on Sunday

 

[Bedi]

For those in the know, how's he been looking so far at Box Hill?

 

[Journeyman13]

Early days for Will. Looks as though he belongs at BHH. He needs time.

For those in the know, how's he been looking so far at Box Hill?

He's like Calsher. Not ready. Needs a few years at Box Hill.

 

[Lawsy]

I see what you did there.

Was a roll of the dice that paid off, but in fairness with M Lewis missing, we were pretty desperate at that point in time.

The cupboard was indeed bare

It was not a roll of the dice. He was performing very well at Box Hill.

He probably wouldn't have played if Lewis was available and we may not have been on the run we are on, when you look at what the record is when dear plays vs he doesn't.

Was meant to be, as let's be honest Lewis doesn't offer the same front half pressure that dear does.

 

[Bugs1977]

I haven't been able to catch the last couple of BHH games. How's the young fella been doing?

 

[Sixpence]

Lewis wouldnt get a game the form we are in. You cant tell me you are dropping chol or dear? dear has kicked the most goals from any draftee this season. He has shown me more in 13 games then lewis has the whole time hes been here. lewis is one dimensional he couldn't play our style of pushing up the ground to defend then hard running back to goal. look at his game against geelong, yes it was his first game back our foward structure was shot, dear is the future.

This is absolute garbage.

 

[Jane Doe]

Does anyone know how Will is tracking this pre season? Has been very quiet. Thought he looked ok at Box Hill later in the year.

Will is doing everything this pre season. Is still very slight as they may not want him to load himself with any sort of intense weight training given his recent past

Here is a picture of yesterday of Will McCabe. He is the one with his back to us, paired up with Jai Serong. The second picture you can compare his size with Tom Barrass.

McCabes body looks to have developed in comparison to this time last. Would that be a fair assessment?

Yes.

18 year olds do tend to fill out as they turn 19 and then 20.

Even more so in a professional sporting environment where they do lots of weight training with the aim of gaining 10- 15 kgs of weight in order to play senior football.

 

[Sixpence]

Yes.
