Scouting Notes: 2024 AFL U17s - Vic Metro vs. Queensland
Queensland dominated in patches en route to a 20-point win over Vic Metro in Saturday's Under 17 Futures clash.central.rookieme.com
I was thinking as I read it, would I rather have one very good academy player, or multiple reasonably good ones? Maybe next year and going forward, quality is better than quantity.Suns academy would find it hard to grab them all - Uwland, Patterson, Addinsall and many more.
We don’t need quantity this year either.I was thinking as I read it, would I rather have one very good academy player, or multiple reasonably good ones? Maybe next year and going forward, quality is better than quantity.
All three of those GC boys are just as good as Annabel.I was thinking as I read it, would I rather have one very good academy player, or multiple reasonably good ones? Maybe next year and going forward, quality is better than quantity.
Annable was outstanding. Bridge was very poor in his disposal by foot, but directed traffic well. Seen enough of him to say it was just an off day.
Geesu is a high impact, low possession player. He is exciting.
Isaac Waller looked handy in the ruck, but both he and Gillet had no marking presence. Of the other Lions kids, I thought Tanks elevated himself - but outside Annable the bulk of the work was done by the Suns kids.

Exactly how I saw it.
For those not wanting to sit through the full replay, here is some vision of the Brisbane Lions Academy guys from last weekends match:
Daniel Annable #20
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Harrison Bridge #16
Jordan Chambers #10
Harry Grills #9
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Raphael Geesu #3
Oscar Tanks #12
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tom Gillett #27
Isaac Waller #26
Jack Harrison #7
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ben Lillico #4
Jared Moss #6
James Milner #25
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ashcroft #1 is 182cm. Ashcroft #2 is 179cm.Ashroft x 2, and Annabelle. 3 x 185cm guns. Have to get some size elsewhere, because that looks like cream.
Ashcroft #1 is 182cm. Ashcroft #2 is 179cm.
Don't know if Annabel is finished growing yet. He grew 4cm or 5cm over the last 12 months.edit = 3 sub 185 cm guns.
Exactly how I saw it.

Great, but I wasn't talking about them.All three of those GC boys are just as good as Annabel.
Has Levi finished growing? I guess we don't really know?Ashcroft #1 is 182cm. Ashcroft #2 is 179cm.
Strange. The post you quoted and replied to was about them.Great, but I wasn't talking about them.
Looks that way. Hasn't grown since he was 14 or 15. But he's a December birth, so he might have one last, late growth spurt in him.Has Levi finished growing? I guess we don't really know?
Qld sun will do the trick!Looks that way. Hasn't grown since he was 14 or 15. But he's a December birth, so he might have one last, late growth spurt in him.
No, it was about multiple players including Annable, and my comment didn't mention any of them. Just because you drew an inference it doesn't mean I was drawing it.Strange. The post you quoted and replied to was about them.
What we lack in the midfield is elite pace.We do have Dunkley, Rayner and Berry to balance out the midfield rotations size wise.
Hopefully you mean Rayner-now not Rayner Danster-fodder!Are we sure the Lions didn't send Cam Rayner down to play U17s? Its remarkable how similar Annable and Rayner play!
