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.

There is a date by which you must nominate as a father/son, so hiding your intentions doesn’t really work

Pretty sure Will lives in the Barossa and just boards in Adelaide. Can’t imagine he would have the go home factor

Not sure why you quoted me to post where he lives?

the difference comes off our 2024 first pick if the bid is in the first round - that would be a disaster to have it pushed back

exactly, we should be willing to walk away if bid comes before pick 12 and if we are in deficit by 500+ points. If we have Pick 6 next yr, that would mean we slide to pick 13.

I am still not clear on if Lions had enough points to cover for their 2 FS picks( Ashcroft & Fletcher) last year, by my calculations they were in deficit by some 200 points. See no coverage of that.

McCabe is listed at 17 in the draft talent rankings, odd to see Bulldogs FS listed at 23 when most others have him at 12-13

They’ve also got Watson at 8. I’d be shocked if he was there past pick 5

They've got two suns academy players in the top five.

Based on current ladder order, and the 20% FS discount, our deficit would only be 184 points if we matched pick 11 With 31 and 50. That would not affect a top 3 pick next year, but for picked 4 onwards we would slip down one spot. F/S picks usually go later than true value, so I doubt we will be in deficit at all.

Time to put the kid on ice for the rest of the season if true. Pic looks like it was taken on a Nokia 3210

As I said earlier teams usually honour father sons that have nominated and let them get to where they want to go. It's almost like an unwritten law / gentleman's agreement of sorts.

No doubt the photo was heavily cropped given the blur. Everyone knows the Pixel rules when it comes to pics taken by a phone.

 

[The Chad and I]

F/S picks usually slide about 20% in draft order and then another 20% discount on points to match.
IF we don't match it's usually bc they're not worth it.
No point worrying about it TBH.

Late to the party here...was it McCabe or Hustwaite in the moon boot?

 

[Flukey!]

McCabe ranked 16th according to The Age

Pick by pick: The top 25 if the AFL draft was on now

This is The Age’s top 25 prospects after the AFL under-18 championships, compiled after extensive discussions with club recruiters and player agents.

Lets hope the fact he wasn't named All Australian he is a slider because we are definitely drafting him

Came across an article about school footy where Ned Maginness is mentioned.

It caught my eye, because it reads like Ned will be picked up by the Hawks?


Enter Scott Maginness, premiership player at Hawthorn who has one boy (Finn) playing at the Hawks and another (Ned) on the way, who was playing on Saturday alongside Smith for Scotch.

The Scoop: Uproar as coach Matthew Lloyd sends a tagger to Jagga

If you haven’t heard of teenager Jagga Smith by now, write the name down. You’re going to get used to it.

Given lack of Cat A rookie spots, suspect it's unlikely either of Maginness or Dear get drafted but anyway

If he isn't on an AFL list I'd love to get him into Box Hill. He's one good preseason focusing on finishing away from being a very exciting prospect.

Pre COVID Box Hill used to have extra list allowances for Hawthorn father sons.

Unsure if this provision is still there, but it's where I'd always hoped we'd give Devlin Brereton, Louis Thompson, Jerome Lawrence, Tom Graham etc another year or two before we fully close the door on putting them on the HFC list.

McCabe Dear Maginness this year is the thread here.
Cooper Hodge 3 years away. I was
Also guilty of engaging in this discussion but There’s a father son time capsule thread for it. Let’s help the mods out.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Read the thread title, people.
