Player Watch #34 Harry Armstrong

[Infamy]

I’m hearing big things already about this kid.

We’ve all heard about the nice set shot on him. But I’m hearing this is actually down playing it and he is an absolute dead-eye shot.

Apparently these are his strengths and weaknesses according to that rookieme website:



Areas of improvements aren't that bad tbh

I was using him as an example of how the private schools run with players . Hailebury wanter Harry to play seniors , but he's loyal and said no as he was Ormond. Anyhow you have the steal of the draft

Happens all the time , nick Watson ,Conor McDonald both left public school for private after year 10

Agree

He’s a key forward he’s not going to kick 6 goals a quarter haha

He’ll get his endurance up with a few preseasons under the belt

Harry Armstrong will be the 2nd greatest key forward to ever play the game behind Jonty Faull.

How's the multi-thread tantrum from old mate?

 

[Sir_Loin]

Feel like this guy is going to punch out a 10 on the G like a Jack or Richo at some point

He's a great kick AT goal

If milk boi pulls off this call I’ll be the first to salute

Saw someone say on draft night the reasoning he fell was because of his interviews, not sure if true or not. Was a bit worried it meant he had a bad attitude / arrogant, but from watching the media interviews he looks just a bit shy, not great with the public speaking/interviews and not fully confident in himself which is really no issue at all, especially for an 18 year old.

Everything Ive seen he looks like just a lovely guy. Very excited about the pick now.

Blair mentioned that he was a bit of an introvert when he spoke about him on the talking tigers podcast

Can’t remember the exact words he said but it definitely seems like he’s more of an actions over words kind of person

Nothing wrong with that either

interesting concept, what if you have a forward that consistantly kicks a bag in the first half but then does nothing for 2 qtrs. are they a bad player because they dont put in for 4 qtrs?

How many bags do you see now in the AFL/VFL the games different and Harry can get up the ground .

absolutely - we cant have a team full of leaders and extroverts, that would be a disaster. As long as he doesn't go into his shell during the games, all good - he's gotten this far and seems to step up in big moments so I cant see it being any problem at all

 

[Coach_Required]

I want this boy in the team round 1 next to Lynch & Bauer.

Faull in time will replace Lynch, Fawcett needs time in the VFL as he had injuries all last year. Need to see Gray in the VFL with Fawcett. Sims we need him to learn the Ruck / forward craft so we can get rid of Ryan.

Kosi can play down back in the VFL
