Any father-son/father-daughter picks coming up in the near future?

[The Falcon Strike]

Goal kicking looks a natural fit as an eagle.

With the new f/s bidding system, it almost seems counter productive to be advancing these lads prior to the draft

 

[JADED]

Thanks Skippos.
I didn't realise he was an underager.
Another year to work on those set shots. Already looks a promising forward. He'll cost us a bit more than his brother if we get him.
Muddy did well with those 2.

 

[jaxxon]

Maybe he meant that WC weren't going to select Matera as F/S, and not the other way around. It wasn't very clearly written.

 

[steve hucka]

How would we pay overs?

To get in before other teams with a 2nd rounder when he's really a 3rd etc etc

Just need to convince his youngest boy Ben to commit to footy as well.

Now why would we do that?

He will have plenty of time watching his older bros tearing it up at the eagles to get the fire burning

Exactly read my first post

Doesn't always work that way unfortunately, eg Ben Cousins' younger brother didn't want the pressure of following his dad and Ben so didn't commit to the game.

Same with Nathan Ablett.

Jake has a completely different a conpletely different player to Alec

Jake has a completely different physique to Alec. More Jack Darling & growing. He's done extremely well as an under-ager.

A guy I know who's been in the inner sanctum of WA U18's for many years talks him up big-time; reckons he's got the potential / attributes to become West Coast's Nat Fyfe.

I know, ive seen him play a fair few times now and over the last two years, so i've seen him grow and fill out a bit. Jake isn't that skinny he's just got a longer body frame to his brothers. He's mid eight kilos 18 months out from his draft.

Athletically speaking i see a bit of a gulf between the Jake and Nat Fyfe. Fyfe has rare agility and a good leap. But in terms of marking prowess Jake is right up there with the better players to come through the Colts in recent years.

Looks like he's just had a bad day to be honest. Kicked 11.10 in the Colts which isn't great but isn't that bad.

At that weight, he'd need to put on a LOT more weight.

Hey guys, thought this might have been of interest to you

He looks a solid unit, like I thought Waterman was beastly, Jake's going to be even more solid.

Jack Darling Mark II?

Reminds me of Jack Gunston in that video.

Not really. At his height he only needs to be 90 kilos plus, And he will comfortably reach the low 90 kilo range, even if he doesn't grow much more.

Was it the shocking kick for goal that reminded you? Or simply the face?

 

[paran]

Some good and bad from the vid. Shocking kicking for goal, excellent grab and aerial, potential below the knees, needs to add more mongrel and physical play. For an underager there's a lot to like.

'Spring' Waterman.

 

[Shmiddy15]

He looks like a powerful unit. There was some really nice arial work in that video too.

Jeez, I hope he doesn't play like her...

Unimpressive to be honest, hope we go with the Victorians again in this years draft. WA only produces a couple of decent picks each year and we rarely get to pick them now with GC and GWS leeching them so we need to grab as much Victorian ans SA talent as we can.

His body shape, role and in particular his gait.

 

[suntagonal]

In my opinion, we should always go best available... regardless of position or needs

Hodor.

2016 draft and I'm expecting WA to be very competitive next year.
