Player Watch Mid-Season Pick #12 (2024) - Logan Evans

[Peninsula Boy]

It seems the club has a preference for selecting players who were rated highly pre-draft year but slipped in the draft due to a less-than-ideal season. Moreas, though to a lesser extent, is a another recent example of this approach.

Definitely a part of the List Management's modus operandi.

Will be good seeing the #22 on a player whose legs actually leg.

Looking forward to watching Logan in 2025.

Once he matures, I reckon could easily take over the position of Houston's role.

Maybe we should have retired the number 22 to symbolically retire the bomb it long to the forwards game plan.

But then I remembered the coach didn't retire too.

And reference to 'my 2 cents worth'.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Some pretty good Port defenders have worn 22. Greg Phillips, John Abley, Greg Boyd (won premierships as a forward and defender).

Houston with better defensive craft IMO

I’m hoping he shaves those sideburns

He can have a Donald Dickie mo-hawk for all I care if he improves another 50% this year.

I was hoping to see those arms heading in the Bergman direction (wouldn't get there for a couple of years) at this time of year.

Bergman is a rare specimen, he clearly spends a lot of personal time in the gym

Logan Evans is an amazingly good player for this stage in his career. He's well ahead of Houston at the same point in his career and his ability to read the play, intercept and choose the right option under pressure is close to elite already. Houston is a better long kick but Logan Evans is nearly as reliable in finding his targets. I'm looking forward to seeing him continue to grow his game. In time I think he'll be a better player than Houston.
