Who impressed in round seven of WAFL colts

It was ball magnets galore in the colts on Saturday, with several midfielders racking up 30-plus possessions to catch the eye. Plus a fast-improving Subiaco gun made the most of his PSA school’s bye.

Subiaco young gun Neil Erasmus impressed in his WAFL colts return.

Max Chipper (Swan Districts)
The second-placed Swans, who are percentage behind top side East Perth with a 4-1 record, are reaping the benefits of Chipper’s switch of schools from Guildford Grammar in the PSA to La Salle College.

The 17-year-old was best-afield in his side’s hard-fought win over Subiaco at Steel Blue Oval, with 38 touches and eight marks.

It backed up his massive game against West Perth the previous round, when he had 34, seven marks, five tackles and three goals.

Coach John Armstrong felt the hard-working Chipper was making the most of an injury-free run after his 2020 season was hampered by a serious hand injury, playing just one colts game and a few at PSA level.

Only Perth intercept-marking defender Jack Avery (34) and East Fremantle midfielder Josh Browne (31.4) are averaging more disposals than Chipper (30) this season.

Jed Hagan (East Fremantle)
The Geraldton product is shaping up to be one of the State’s best draft prospects for next year.

Hagan played as a winger last year and across half-back to start this season but has since become more of an inside midfielder.

He was arguably East Fremantle’s best player in a narrow loss to Claremont, amassing 27 possessions, 10 tackles and nine marks in a well-rounded performance.

Bodie Kitchingman (Peel Thunder)

Was Peel’s best player by the length of the Flemington straight in a tough loss to West Perth in Mandurah.

Kitchingman is a smooth-moving midfielder with plenty of tricks and played a lone hand in the engine-room.

Took a spectacular one-handed grab in the final term to cap off a decent day at the office, finishing with a game-high 31 possessions, a dozen more than the next best on the ground.

Dylan Mulligan (Claremont)
The Claremont big man was excellent in the ruck against Sharks trio Kobe McMillan, Jacob Feist and first-round draft prospect Jack Williams.

The 195cm talent had an impact around the ground and is putting together a decent season of colts footy for the Tigers, regular punching above his weight and height.

Tyler Mouritz (West Perth)
Mouritz was an intercept-marking machine down back for the Falcons.


The 192cm defender reads the play so well and rarely made a mistake all match.

Jacob Plunkett (South Fremantle)
The 191cm forward was the premier goal-kicker of the round, booting 6.1 in South Fremantle’s win over a hapless Perth.

Plunkett did it all to cause plenty of headaches for the Demons’ defence minus gun Jack Avery, taking seven marks and applying great defensive pressure with seven tackles.

It was the South Coogee product’s fourth multiple haul in a row, taking his season tally to 14.

Neil Erasmus (Subiaco)
Subiaco benefited from Hale School’s PSA bye with the inclusion of Neil Erasmus and Richard Farmer.

Erasmus was particularly damaging against a star-studded Swan Districts midfield and nearly got his team over the line.

The AFL draft prospect finished with 27 disposals, seven tackles, seven marks and six inside 50s to continue his stellar year at colts and PSA levels.

I read somewhere that Joel Trudgeon had a big game recently, remember seeing him listed as 90kg already, anyone seen him in action ?

Surprised he isn't getting more notice

Surprised he isn't getting more notice

Reminds me of another play I saw numbers like that for:



He was later rookied by Freo... not sure what the knock is on Browne but will find out

Some great work from PMBangers

That second GWS pick is one we should be keeping our eye on, if it looks like Fahey will be bid on before it and GWS haven't traded up.

I see that Darcy has crept up the rankings.

 

[andana]

Jack Williams would be a Tall Utility

 

[BRider]

Id still have Sam Banks in my top 20.

At this stage you’d think Horne is a lock.
Happy with that.

 

[Sphynx]

Interesting to hear him refer to Daicos as the most talked about “no.1” maybe a slip of the tongue in that he’s on the top of our draft board?

Way to switched on to be a slip of the tongue.

D.Scott played his first game for Calder.
Had 11 disposals, 3 marks, 2 tackles, 3 inside 50s and kicked 0.2


J.Archer
10 disposals,1 mark, 2 tackles

Haven't they said Darby is supposed to be better then bailey?

 

[The Nostradamus]

Haven't they said Darby is supposed to be better then bailey?

No ones said that
If anything Darby is rated less and a slim chance to be picked up at all.

Bailey was at least getting a lot of ball in the juniors and was always going to be picked up by someone at least as a rookie

I read somewhere that Joel Trudgeon had a big game recently, remember seeing him listed as 90kg already, anyone seen him in action ?

Watched the game - big is an understatement. You need to keep in mind that it was against Brisbane who are one of the worst teams in the comp.

36 touches, 8 marks, 14 tackles, 8 clearances, 1 goal, 5 goal assists for 308 champion data/supercoach points.

Big bodied inside mid who tackles with real aggression. Pretty decent in a 1 on 1 contested in the air and ground. Not without some fairly obvious weaknesses though - his disposal off a mark and under no pressure is solid, but really tends to panic and rush a forward moving handball/kick under any sort of pressure.

He can be picked up in the MSD but there's no real talk around him. I'd suggest it's because there's a perceived lack of scope for development beginning with the fact that he doesn't come across as a great athlete.

For the record, he played a really good game in round 4 too - 29 touches, 5 marks and 3 goals
