Pity that his natural instinct to back up his teammates is going to get coached out of him, to get into his allotted position.

Is he 191 or 193/4cms? Recon we think he's a chb/hbf or a mid?

With the players already taken I wanted him or Brodie. The club must rate him higher. I'm sure he'll be a great long term player.
Whichever one strikes fear into the heart of the enemies better.
To be perfectly honest I think the difference in height measurements is based on whether or not you count his hair.

Just as a comparison:
Alex Rance (2016)
Height: 194 cm
Weight: 96 kg
Griffin Logue (current)
Height: 193 cm
Weight: 94 kg
I think Logue has shown he has the attributes to at least develop into an as good a player as Rance and could be more damaging offensively.

Good pick! I was so worried we would spud up the selection with another mid or English. Nothing against English - I think he is a chance to be good, but not top 10 from what I have seen. Would have taken SPS in a heartbeat, but intel (not that I am privy to much) said Carlton had him locked.
Geez way to put some serious expectations on the kid. Comparing him to a duel AA CHB and then saying he could be better is getting ahead of yourself a little bit.

Happy with this pick. Looks like hes got all the attributes to be the consummate professional and team man. The discipline required to be a rower is encouraging - cant imagine those 4.30am wake ups would have been much fun. He'll be one to look to as an example before too long in my mind.
Little torn on his best position, Ross likes his big bodied mids but we'll see in time if he's got the capabilities to be an elite one. They all seem to have the ability to slow down time.
Finally, is the kid a mature ager or not? Turns 20 next year at the start of the season yet was playing colts and under 18s this year. Was he overlooked last year in the draft? Being that year older than his peers is interesting as at that age, it can be an advantage. Encourgaing he played seniors for Swannies too - always good to gauge how they cope playing against men.
Can see him playing straight away and would not surprise to see him in the 18 by round 4 or 5.

I think it was a typo but I saw him mentioned as born in april 1997 somewhere which would mean he's 20 in april (not that I care , he's a gun .) I'm just not sure how old he is.
We don't have a Thon Maker situation here do we?
He's half Croatian so with Pav's retirement we've refilled that quota. Also his great grandfather and my kids' great grandfather were brothers (just reminding you) so I called it that we should pick him when I found out. Always need a bullocking Croatian in your team.

I didn't say I expect him to be as good as Rance; physically he's the same size as Rance and I think he has the attributes to be as good as Rance and has shown signs he could be better offensively. Whether he will remains to be seen but seems like he has a good head on his shoulders and determination to get the best out of himself
