Player Watch #28 Kane McAuliffe

[Grockadoc]

Solid tonight. One of the few who actually tried all night and didn't take a backwards step. Needs to polish his disposal, but should be playing all year.

 

[SplintWhisky]

Thought he was ok tonight considering he was playing against proper, seasoned big mids. Has some stuff to improve on but hell, I hope his confidence can build.

Would like for him to and Sonsie to be part of the midfield rotations for the next 5 weeks so we can kick start his development.

 

[TheDyerLegacy]

He will be a player

 

[Coach_Required]

Already my favorite player

 

[Tiger51]

Promising performance by Kane tonite, 20 disposals in a dismal display by a very much undermanned team, which should see him retain his spot for the remainder of the season.

 

[prodigy]

Happy he got a full run in the midfield. A lot to work with.

 

[Turka]

He got caught in an unlucky didn’t mean it tackle by Rayner…Didn’t drop his head and got in with it…Fantastic effort against big bodied mids for the rest of the night…

 

[THE_GUN]

Kid can play

cant wait until he has 50 - 70 games under his belt

 

[tiger_tough]

Showed plenty in a 120 point belting.

 

[Triggering Tiger]

Showed plenty in a 120 point belting.

He'll be good un he just needs to learn how to flatten his kicks a bit more and not hang on to the ball so long but he'll learn that in time and with experience.

Geez being this kid. Get drafted to biggest club in the land. 3x flags and a few months later you are getting flogged every week and you are our main midfielder. Doing an admirable job

 

[59Stanley]

Great pick up at that point in the draft. He is strong and looks to have decent speed. He is a link player as his hand balling is solid and he not afraid to be in the contest.
Can see him hopefully getting on the end of plays soon in addition to being the instigator.

Feck just need 21 more like him!

 

[Madtiger2006]

Will be a gun.

 

[SA_Tiger11]

Very green. Will benefit a lot from some midfield minutes this year against some of the best. Sit him on Merrett this week to learn a thing or two.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Big future this kid.
Will sway which way we go in the draft.

 

[RichmondEshays]

If there was a redraft of the 2023 draft this kid would be top 10 maybe even top 5. Bar Harley Reid, no draftee has played as a predominant inside mid racking 20 touches.

Yep more often than not that's called play on "knocked free in the tackle". It shouldn't be but it certainly is when it's tiger players doing the tackling! He also got pinged in the last for one where he had zero prior. The umps are cooked.
He had a good game and looks the goods.

 

[partycorolla]

If an injury is going to reoccur chances are it wouldn’t matter if they played vfl or afl level especially if it’s early in a game

Players are competitive my nature and won’t hold themselves back for load management in any game situation once the ball is bounced

So why are so many players brought back through the reserves on managed minutes?

 

[THE_GUN]

Will be a gun.

He is a father son

 

[tigs2010]

We've got a good one here. Matt Clarke saving his best work till last.

 

[fargothegreat]

Needs a good Summer of running, but apart from that very impressive.

 

[TheDyerLegacy]

Strong early signs… will develop into a solid mid

 

[A Tiger 4 lyf]

Endurance as expected isn’t there but he’s doing good work
