I would prefer we re-sign Harley.

Unfortunately he is JHF....... without the lack of professionalism and giant power tool bit.

 

[dinnaz]

Bo allan ?

In the champs he dominated physically in the centre . He is very much in the yeo mold when it comes to player comparisons.

For a draftee to compete against men at wafl level he has to have some physicality

I think you dont know what you are talking about

I don't know what you were watching but dominated isn't the word I would use
He goes OK, but so does everyone else in the AFL.

We will see, but I don't think i'm wrong here despite the hype. I think if he plays anywhere it will be as a role player and even then he's a very West Coast pick in an athlete that looks good but doesn't really do all that much.

My prediction is that he at best comes in for R1 does **** all & maybe hold a spot for a couple of games and then spends the whole year in the WAFL. Looking at more games in years 2 & 3 off a flank a bit like what Hough has done.

Sounds like you were only talking about year 1 .

I thought you were saying Allan ends up on a wing at best in his career.

Year 1 I expect allan to play off the HBF both wafl and afl level .

You replied to a post about our potential future midfield of Harley, Hewett, warner and ginbey/allan chopping in and out to add some grunt

I don't think he'll be in the on-ball rotation ever. Will probably flirt with the wing or flank.
I'd love a superstar from every pick but I have him in the range of being better than Chesser, but worse than Matt Johnson (Freo) .

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Allan will be a fine player.

He hasn't even played a game yet.

Can't bowl, can't throw.

Yeah, what a spud. Can't even get a game. /delist

Matt Johnson from freo is a better footballer but athletically limited.

Chesser is athletically gifted but never proved himself at any level above u16s

Bo allan is an elite athlete with power and endurance, proved himself at under 18s taking on the opposition best in the middle and also performed well at peel seniors winning a premiership. I can see him as a James rowbottom type . Not a front line star but just as important in a midfield mix

 

[ArdentEagle]

Allan will be a fine player.

 

[WCE_phil]

I'm hoping Allan can be a hard running, powerful marking wing with a long kick. If he can take some runs through the middle then great.

He should be further ahead than most in his draft cohort. Come through traditional pathways, one of the very oldest in his draft group and is an amazing athlete.

If he can become elite at reading the play on the inside he would be an insane steal.

Gross & Shanahan are my two favourites from our draft group. Both were sliders and I think both have elite potential.

I read recently that Gross was rated even higher in his underage years, and had an underwhelming 2024… can anyone comment?

Very happy about those sliders

Because he's not a size or athletic standout. His disposal by foot can be hit and miss. But he can be an absolute ball pig inside, is great by hand, is hard at it and knows where the goals are. He has enough elite attributes to really contribute to being part of a strong midfield group.

An inside ball pig is exactly what people have overlooked when talking about our future midfield. Without question we need an outside weapon (what people are describing Rodriguez) but a ball pig to go with the dynamic Reid, Hewett and hopefully a Warner would really round out the midfield.

If Gross is this, gee we’ve done well to set our midfield up.

Perfect summation all round!!
