Prediction Harry Sheezel - Can he be the GOAT?

[Meteoric Rise]

Lucky enough to get to watch most of his game on the weekend. This young bloke looks the business, he is so damaging, and beautifully balanced when contesting the ball. Contributes very strongly defensively and offensively. Looking forward to seeing where he gets to but North have an absolute gem here amongst an otherwise decent looking midfield.

The Roos definitely appear to have plenty to look forward to.

Currently up to CD's rankings of 8th in the league.

Daniel Hoyne said if he finishes the season in the top 10, he's going to be only the second u/20 in 15 years since they backdated the rankings to finish in the top 10.

Bontempelli being the other in 2015.

Highest ranked game of any player this round

4th highest ranked game of the entire season I believe.

Interesting that he wasn't considered the best player on the ground.

It's amazing how often that happens. Daicos had one of them against the Bulldogs a few weeks ago.

You mean players in a lower or losing side not getting the highest votes? Go figure

No, that's not what I mean.

Will be a top tier player but will never be the GOAT

Will be a top tier player but will never be the GOAT

In fairness nobody will ever pick the Aussie Rules Goat.

But Sheezel probably will make the the case for being the best North Player since Carey and might be the player for that club for the first half of the 21st century.

Great player but not copping a hard tag yet.

Richmond attempted the tag today.

Sheezel still dominated and had 29 touches. Will get Brownlow votes from today's game.

Untaggable. As I said.

i think mckercher will get the 3 before him, LDU the two

McKercher had a lot of it but wasn't influential

i disagree, from my perspective he did a lot to stifle richmond’s early game dominance and held boltan/martin extremely well when required

He was very good. I’d have Xerri and LDU as top two on ground personally

Jackson Archer was the one most often matched against Shai, not McKercher.

 

[DocSholl]

They quelled him in the first half but he was enormous in the third. 29, six clearances, six inside 50s and three goal assists is still a handy day at the office.

Nowhere near as damaging as LDU, Xerri, Sheezel or Larkey

13 touches from kick ins alone

just my pov from the game, happy to be wrong

 

[The Dougster]

Said it on our board a few times. We are very lucky to have him(and George). Class act. Tough too.

Same was said of Sheezel last year, McKercher will be ultra damaging when he moves forward of center

I don't mean in general, I just mean today.

IMO McKercher is the best first year player this year ahead of Reid

 

[Tbonefreo]

Nah

 

[Chadwiko]

Absolutely elite.

 

[Purple7x08_24]

Said the same re Daicos but you need to own those games in the clutch moments to be in consideration for the GOAT.

He was clearly injured, could barely walk in the last
