Player Watch #34: Jackson Archer - BFNAAK - re-signed until end of 2026 - rd21 AFL RS nominee

[RobZombie]

We can still rookie him if no body nominates him in the ND.

Yeah but if you use up all your senior list spots and another club nominates him with a late pick you’re stuffed. So for all practical purposes you need to use your last senior list spot on them.

We will have plenty of spare senior list spots we rarely go 38-4, this year we went with 36-6 (rookies) so shouldn’t be an issue.

Senior or rookie list won’t be an issue but I wouldn’t be surprised if no bid came so rookie draft is very possible

Getting JHF and archer into the team and add them to the hard muthfkers we already have - we’re going to be good and hardasses again

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Will be stupendous to have the Archer name back on the list....

 

[giantroo]

What # number does Jacko get? #34?

 

[SpiderBurton22]

So it seems NMFC think Jackson Archer > Charlie Ham

And boomer jnr next year too

Archer and Harvey reunited

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

A solid small lockdown defender is exactly what we need. Best of luck to him. Always good to have an Archer at Arden Street.

 

[Shinboner1]

He is definitely built for the game.
Shoulders that make you forget about that slimey lizard Judas.
Would be great to see how his other skills are

Lizard judas?

[KangaRooster]

Going to be hard not to root for the kid, best of luck to him

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

But BF posters said it wouldn't happen

 

[The Brady Bunch]

Bit of a shock

If no one nominates him - can’t we take him just as a rookie

You don't get father-son priority at the rookie draft, but of course, we have the first pick, so that's an option.

 

[Shinboner1]

thats mad

 

[The Filth Wizard]

But BF posters said it wouldn't happen

I thought it was a year off but that's basically based off him not being a player that grabbed much attention in a year with almost no footy played. We arguably shouldn't have committed a senior list spot to that but we have which means he had already made the impression he needed to.

 

[RHLK]

Heartwarming news, let's hope young Arch becomes the reverse Jesse Smith.

Going to be hard not to root for the kid, best of luck to him

One of those creeping Americanisms or genuine dedication? Too pissed to tell...

 

[deano28]

Love it , I remember this distinctly . 1st quarter of the 96 GF & Arch is shaping up to plugger . 2 hours later … Norm Smith medallist.

My point was people posting other posters opinions as fact should, but won't, feel a bit silly.

 

[remfan101]

That's Jacob Edwards he's abusing

Wrapt for the kid, but tbh I’m almost slightly shocked at this.

We’ve committed a main list spot to him which is pretty increadible. I think he would have been easily selectable in the rookie draft.

Remembering he wasn’t selected in the Vic Metro trial games. I.e the top 40 or so Vic Metro prospects, let alone draft wide prospects.

He wasnt really involved in underage rep sides either.

Brady must have liked what he saw at the Oak Park u/17’s.

Noble Park maybe, Oak Park is my local and I reckon I would have known if Arch was there. Lots of old Boners are down at Strathmore (the cashed up rivals)

Yeah, lazy posting on my part, I’m a huge Arch fan and hope Jackson does us all proud.

 

[Newbie Real Talk]

So cool to have another Archer on the list. Souup, could young Jackson potentially play the role currently being played by Turner?

 

[Twinkletoes]

Very exciting for the hundreds of North families who’ve named their son Archer, Shinboner of the Century who said kids have never seen play live.

Park Orchards I believe.
