NOT much is known from a NAB League perspective about Evans, who came into the Cannons’ line-up for three games, booting five goals from 29 disposals and 12 marks after coming from local footy at the start of the year. He is clean at ground level and overhead, and is able to work hard to apply scoreboard pressure. He has to add to his smaller frame and build his endurance, but showed some great signs. He is a somewhat unknown quantity against his peers at NAB League level, but showed he is more than capable of matching them at his best. He is clever overhead for his size and could be that smaller forward who eventually pushes up for a midfield role once he develops his endurance base.
STRENGTHS: Clean hands, scoreboard impact, marking, kicking
IMPROVEMENTS: Strength, endurance

Why did he only play 3 games? And given he averaged less then 10 touches a game in those 3 then why would anyone want him?

Who wouldnt swap pick 27 for pick 11? Absolutely no one.

Agree it was such a no brainer. Just lucky we were the club

not if you'd already shot your load on Sharp et al.

GO Catters

Have gone back and watched the deliberations over the Evans selection at our table.

Troy Selwood: "Stephen, listen to me Evans is a good little player, he has a real spark, is quick and has some spunk"

Wells: "Troy you're boring me, look let me trade the pick" picks up the phone....

Troy Selwood: "Stephen, he got injured early in the season and only played two games."

Wells: Putting the phone down "Troy, why didn't you lead with that. Mack lock him in."

Would love it if we had an academy which had talented players which other clubs would be willing to bid on...

 

[calder_daddy]

Comes into the night hoping for Taheny, Robertson, Rivers, Rantall, Bianco, Gould etc

Leaves with Francis Evans...

Never change Wells

So where do we find out what picks clubs have used up to do all the bidding?

Because the failure of Waybill was not enough!!!!

WAs at Cannons and got a sore heel so stopped playing. Kicked 5 goals in 6 1/4s of footy at Cannons.

GO Catters

yes it feels like zones again which screwed us and caused a 40 year drought.

Hurt his heal

Injury.

 

[Jimmy Willis Jawline]

I go out to a bloody meat raffle and come home expecting to YouTube highlights of our future stars...

 

[Strange Cat]

Might be midnight before we get to pick 64

 

[Pure_Ownage]

I rate these bris acad kids as rookie picks in a normal year clubs sure going speculative.

 

[winty]

Yay! Another bid on an academy player! How exciting!

/sarcasm

Maybe if we got that Lincoln McCarthy like the club was expecting, we wouldn't have had to deal with so many injury issues for the one that did turn up...

 

[calder_daddy]

One thing, we any chance ever drafting a left footer?

All our picks have been speculative picks.
Skipped on trading up for Flanders.
Cooper Stephens - 2 games this year, speculative.
Skipped on Kemp and Robertson.
Sam De Koning - played during the year, but was inconsistent at NAB U18s, although was good at the Champs.
Skipped on Robertson.
Skipped on Sharp, for a pick next year, albeit a good trade.
Drafted Francis Evans has played 3 games at NAB U18s, good marking and goal stats, unproven at Champs level. Not exactly a big forward, only 182cm.
Overlooked Taheny.
