[TurnoverMerchant]

Amazing to see Harry getting so much recognition for the year he has had! The scary thing is he’s only just beginning…

Cant wait till the real accolades start rolling in like the garry ayres and norm smith medals

Can’t wait to see him on the ball or up forward. Going to go up another level

 

[amaz199]

Absolute star and ripper of a bloke. This is where it starts.

BREAKING NEWS:
Sheezel to have emergency surgery on his neck. It is reported his neck was injured by the sheer weight of all the medals he won in 2023.

 

[Sphynx]

There a video of his speech?

 

[shinboner magic]

I rub my eyes in disbelief every time I watch this guy play at such a high level.

He’ll probably kick 60 goals next season.

 

[NarniMagic]

Youngest winner of any club B&F ever?

I keep trying to look this up and can’t find anything for the vfl era… I did find Dick Reynolds did it but he turned 19 half way through the year so I think Harry is the only one to do it while still 18. Anyone know the actual answer ??

I used to obsess over footy stats and off the top of my admittedly declining head, he'd be the youngest. Tim Watson won it pretty young in 1980 but he turned 19 in July apparently. Was his fourth year too

I found Des Fothergill, who was younger back in 1937 when he won the B&F for Collingwood.

I’m not sure if it has been done more recently.

Congrats Harry!!! Well deserved. Speaks so incredibly well.

 

[Scallop Industry Thug]

I was picking matted shit out of my arse due to poor wiping technique at 18. This bloke won a b and f.

What an amazing achievement! I saw the list above of people to have won a B&F before turning 19 so presumably Harry is the first to do it in the modern AFL era.

You're still doing great friend

 

[lockheed]

If you had to choose

Rising Star Award or Syd Barker Medal?

Why not both

 

[Friday Night Lights]

He won it over a bloke who made All Australian. He’s gonna take some beating for the rest of his career.

As long as the following arnt doing the operation Dwaaayne Healy Cornes who said Ashcroft was going to win the Rising Star

 

[The Dougster]

Congrats Harry!!! Well deserved. Speaks so incredibly well.

Very likeable.

Harry Sheezel looking like Mr Blonde. Just needs the sunnies from the Quaynor thing and he's set.

 

[The Dingrel]

Plonk this superstar on a wing for the next 15 years and be done with it.
He has a massive tank already and it'll only get better.
Will still be able to provide run out of the back 50 whilst having plenty of opportunity to deliver inside forward 50 and hit the scoreboard.
Could be one of the best end to end players in modern history.
A faster Sidebottom with better skills.

Yeah I made the same comparison to an old bloke I know…..his response, no way he’s much better, Keith Grieg a much better comparison.
