Future Magpies Watch '11-12

Remove this Banner Ad

In Hine's list management interviews with Luke Mason on the official site pre Christmas, he said they had the option to rookie list Carracher (as a NSW scholar outside the main rookie list) in March 2012 if he performed well enough in the early 2012 NSW Under 18 trials. Not sure if that window has expired yet?

Cant find the link to the video on the website?

Link to below info with no mention of Yakimov - http://www.collingwoodfc.com.au/newsfeatures/news/newsarticle/tabid/5586/newsid/127354/default.aspx

LM: One part of the list that we never hear too much about is the NSW Scholarship program. What's the latest on the prospects we are currently developing?

DH: We’ve still got a few players to come through. There's Elijah Edwards, John Haggerty and Jed Hillman, and we’ve got the potential to list Tyson Carracher as a 19-year-old. That will play itself out in the next three months.

With the other boys, we’re hopeful that at this time next year we can look at potentially listing them as a 17-year-old in much the same way as we listed Tom Young.

Elijah is an elusive, well balanced player who hits the scoreboard well. He’s at Scotch College so we see a lot of Elijah.

John Haggerty has missed a lot of football this year again, in a not dissimilar situation to Jarrod Witts, who had that growth-related stress injury. John’s up around the 195cm-196cm now so he’s got the same scope as Michael Hartley as he can play forward and back.

There’s a good little group there coming through for us and we’ll obviously be putting a lot of effort, in terms of their development, in the next few years so we can hopefully get them down the same path as Tom Young and Jarrod Witts.

Tyson Carracher certainly has displayed AFL scope. We brought him down for a period last year to potentially look at him as a 17-year-old. He certainly has got AFL scope and can play in the carnival as a 19-year-old. He’ll play in the NSW Championships in Coffs Harbour in January so we’ll certainly get up there and monitor him and how the boys are going.

only 194cm. We should have hooked Monkey up with a basketballer instead of a munchkin so he could breed some decent size kids.

Just thought you would like to know that Tyson Carracher is no longer on the scholarship program due to bad run of injuries but he did say that he still could be with pies come year end. Dont know how that works .

Perhaps we still have the rights to selecting him but he's no longer working with the club? Or he's simply saying anyone can draft him and ending up at the Pies is a possibility (although unlikely)?

February 9

  • (Tyson Carracher)

I think he means we could Draft Him but I think it won't be a sure thing

Certainly have the inside word there ;) Most important detail you left out is that they can all play. Ben did really well after his GF year at Woori were he played a massive roll.

Don't have the time any more. Happy to pass the baton.

Ah, Sampler - blast from the past..!

Geez I miss the good old days when posters like TRS, MDC, King Woodie, Vinnie Vegas, and Snag Breac were regulars.... And Tradedraft was the one and only Dave The Man...

COME BACK PEOPLE!

Parenthood hey mate...?

So does this mean when poker gets up and running again you won't have time for that???

BTW - order of importance:

1) Pies
2) Family
3) Everything else

Remember that!

Hope Carracher is still directly available for acquisition through the NSW program. Looks like he could be a handy addition to the rookie list.
