Such is his versatility, the Cannons were also prepared to play Allison across half-back
That NAB advert was the greatest avert in the history of television.1st ad and it's a beauty!!! ❤
shifter could say is he’s got a hyphen name lolNo highlights, no interviews - they don't even know who this campaigner is !!!!
Strange pick IMO, but I'll he honest I don't know a lot about him.
POSITION: Tall Forward/Wing
DRAFT ANALYSIS: “Allison is a tall utility with terrific endurance, able to present as a key forward or ply his trade as a uniquely versatile wingman.” – Michael Alvaro
Calder Cannons prospect Matthew Allison is one in a number of Victorians to have shot onto the AFL Draft radar in 2020 despite not being able to contribute any top-age football. The 194cm utility managed 10 NAB League games among an improving Cannons list last year, while also earning selection in the Vic Metro Under 17 Futures side. He did not quite make the cut for the most recent AFL Academy intake, but was able to showcase his best traits during a couple of promising preseason trial games, where he averaged seven marks between the outings to further capture the attention of recruiters. While he predominantly proved his wares as a deep-lying key forward on those occasions, Allison was also seen on the wing as a bottom-ager and looked poised to rotate between the two posts this season. Such is his versatility, the Cannons were also prepared to play Allison across half-back, with plenty of potential to harness and an exciting base to develop.
STRENGTHS:
- Endurance
- Overhead marking
- Versatility
- Upside
What does that matter if he wouldn't have been picked until the 50's and we have a pick around there?
So who reckons we go for someone completely left field?
OK who was it who said a left -field pick?
Draft night ITK status granted to you!
But you don’t know that. 3 or 4 guys were picked up earlier rated in the 50’s. This year is going to have some stars from lower picks and failures from top pick more than the last 10 years.What does that matter if he wouldn't have been picked until the 50's and we have a pick around there?
Was the board upside downbecause he's the highest ranked player on our board
Twomey and the Mullett had mentioned him as a possibility for one of the previous clubsWho the absolute **** is Matthew McCloud Allison??
how do you know he wouldn't have been picked until the 50's?
I didn't say I did. I said we had a pick in the range that he was projected to be drafted in. Just like you my opinion is a complete guess.But you don’t know that. 3 or 4 guys were picked up earlier rated in the 50’s. This year is going to have some stars from lower picks and failures from top pick more than the last 10 years.
Theres been a few players projected in the 50s that went before our pick, can't judge it based on thatOur next pick was 58, Allison was projected at 52.
That NAB advert was the greatest avert in the history of television.
Still feels like a waste of our first round pick which is never a good thing.
Why would we go a forward anyway ?
194cm is not undersized for a CHF
