What player comparison do you think he plays like?

Would say a smaller version of Stevie Johnson from Geelong / GWS back in the day IMO.

 

[Morbidly_Obese]

Anyone seen George Stevens play? What is his endurance and athleticism like?

Anyone seen George Stevens play? What is his endurance and athleticism like?

Been watching him play Basketball since he was 11, he was always much bigger and stronger than all the others. He looked 3 years older than all the other kids.
He is very smart and sees plays before everyone else. Has lots of time when he has the ball finds the ball with ease. Leg speed is the worry in the big league. Time will tell he also is a great level headed young man

He sounds like he could be one of those players who isn’t tha fastest but creates time with his awareness.

A little bit like say, Pendlebury, who apparently has a basketball background. I think a commentator may have made
mention of it once.

It would be a close race between Stevens and Dan Rich.

He either gets drafted in the mid second round, or potentially goes undrafted.

A player I like as a playmaker 3rd tall defender is Arie Schoenmaker.

 

[briztoon]

And a player gathering a bit of hype, ZZ.

I like Schoenmaker as he is exactly the KB tall type we could develop. Unlikely to be available at our pick.

Levi didn't rack up his typical 30+ disposals in this game, but he was even more damaging than usual with ball in hand, slotting three goals to help Sandy to a big win.

 

[Section 5]

Levi looks good but it is still early days in regard to next years draft.

Levi Ashcroft, could he change the trend of the younger brother actually being better than the older brother.
Below the brothers i can find that played for the Bears/Lions.
Mostly the older was better than the younger.
Excluding the Scott twins as they are the same age.

Younger brother: Blake Coleman, Corey Lyons, Brett Voss

Have i missed anyone that played for the Bears/Lyons?

Older brother: Troy Selwood

Not at the Lions, but Sam Power clearly inferior to older brother Luke.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Kiddy > Blake

Chris > Brad (beat him by a few minutes)

Dayne > Claye

Michael > Brett

Jeremy/Cheynee Stiller?

Got pretty slick hands like his big bro.

 

[Nunez]

Got pretty slick hands like his big bro.

His midfield craft is strong but jeeze his positioning is elite up forward. Will make a great half forward in his rookie year.

 

[Section 5]

Jeremy/Cheynee Stiller?

According to the list (link) i just found he was a rookie in 2004 but did not play an AFL game.
The link is behind for the 2023 season for: Listed players yet to make their debut.

Have no idea how accurate the list is.
At least you can arrange it in alphabetical order.

Cian Hanley younger brother to Pierce was a 2015 rookie but did not play an AFL game

List of Brisbane Lions players - Wikipedia

[Mr Ripper]

Andy and Nick Raines

 

[BuntonRules]

Don't s'pose you can count the Raynor's or Dunkley's.

 

[Section 5]

Don't s'pose you can count the Raynor's or Dunkley's.

They are just on the VFL list so not on the Lions list

 

[Section 5]

Andy and Nick Raines

Nick is older but also a rookie but no AFL games.
He was older so the younger player was the better of those two.

 

[BuntonRules]

They are just on the VFL list so not on the Lions list

I know

 

[Iron Turtle]

can add to the list, Sophie & Isaac Conway

 

[dlanod]

can add to the list, Sophie & Isaac Conway

The younger is the better.

On a similar topic, the Lions must be the club that's listed the most players sourced from Ireland, surely. I know Melbourne kicked off the Irish experiment a long time ago but it's certainly been embraced by Brisbane since the days of Begley/McKeever/Hanley. I'd include Uosis although I know he wasn't born in Ireland.
