Half forward and nope, not a lot.

He average 12.6 touches a game at VFL level in 2015 (9.2 at AFL level) and has only broken 20+ touches once in his VFL career.

Harper like.

Unfortunately for Harps, Kayne is showing more on and off the ball as a second year string bean.

Yep. It's not always a simple comparison. Turner:

- Impacts without possession
- Brings other players in with his play (handballs to advantage very well)

More importantly while his numbers are lower feels to me that he doesn't drift in and out of games as much as some players. Might only get 15-20 possessions but they he seems to get them over the course of his time which is a big positive.

I reckon next year people will take notice and in 2 years he'll be a weapon on field.

Yeah, he's smart, isn't he?

He could end up being a solid midfielder in time if the club push his development that way. He does seem to have a really well rounded game without being a standout in any one area, other than intensity at the contest. But his brain looks to be a real asset, which is half the battle.

Was watching the SF again last night and was thinking about Kayne. I don't really see the point of putting him in the midfield since he's not tall, a necessarily good kick or that quick. Like to see him used in rotations like Adams was though, reckon he might get to the point where his ferocity plus a bit of extra size could be useful late in games where we can't get a clearance.

Last few seconds the best there. You can see on KT's face that he's not kidding when he says he loves the club. Jedderson looking buff too.

 

[kangaspurs]

He's now finished year 12 but he still pronounces 'especially' as 'expecially.' Come on, Kayne.

 

[Black2Blue]

Turner, Garner, and Anderson all in those tackling drills. Gonna be some good viewing with that trio this year.

Pointing out a player's speech nuances? How darrrrrrrrre you? That's not allowed on Bigfooty. :rolls eyes

As classy as Open Slather, you are. With a grudge like Paul Marsh to boot.

Christ I hope you don't do any teaching in your life. You'd be un bloody bearable.

It's just one of my pet hates, right up there with when people spell 'lose' with an extra 'o.'

Leave the kid alone. He clearly has a lisp.

Being tongue-tied or having peculiar speech tics should be a bit more excusable.

One thing I despise about Americans is how they can't seem to decipher any accent - any - except their 'own' without making some comment afterwards.

Christ, you need to chillax man. Interesting how you though it was aimed towards you.

Thanks for the pot shot though, always comforts me to know that people like you have the nerve to post such shit on an Internet forum, it makes me feel so much better. Play the ball, not the man, next time.

 

[ozzyoslo]

Footy forum? speech forum?....the kid has no equal when its comes to putting it all out there on the park. Im in the box where he might have been tongue tied.

I really didn't mean anything by the comment, I've got a couple of mates that do the same thing and they don't have speech impairments but obviously that doesn't necessarily mean that Kayne is the same. I'd just delete it if it hadn't been quoted, but yeah, I wasn't trying to make fun of any sort of impairment he might have.

I was the same mate, some people take everything far too seriously and literally though.
