Player Watch Pick #18 (2019) - Mitch Georgiades

[RossFC]

Nick Riewoldt was apparently 193cm, so that that puts his height into perspective a bit.

Scott Hodges 188cm, Tim Evans 189cm.

 

[Janus]

A hard working key forward that gets around the ground, who can take an aerial contested grab that we’ve been missing since Schulz.

Nothing wrong with that, and is a good foil to Marshall.

 

[Malibu#27]

I posted elsewhere - but given he was at Subiaco surely Schoey would have had a bit of inside knowledge based on his 2018 season.

Draft bolter goes from a year out of footy to a first-round pick

Port Adelaide's new forward hasn't played since the end of 2018 but that didn't stop the Power

Sounds like Schoey had his say

 

[PJ Power]

In all seriousness, a Jack Gunston type sounds ok.

 

[JUSTWORK]

Scott Hodges 188cm, Tim Evans 189cm.

Jason Dunstall,188cm

 

[Mundusa]

So who’s going to rename to Georgiagirl

Is "Georgiadis made me do it" already taken?

 

[snozulu]

I think sometimes people focus too much on a couple of cm's instead of the player's attributes.

 

[Malibu#27]

So having just turned 18 he’s on the younger end of this years draftees - but also played all the wa u18 games last year as a 16yo forward.

Here’s to hoping his 2018 is his trajectory.

Every cm is important to me

Sounds a ripping kid.

Giant scar won’t derail Georgiades’ AFL dream

It’s not exactly what you want to be sporting at a time when AFL recruiters have all eyes on you. But don’t expect Mitch Georgiades’ injury setback to put off clubs at this week’s draft.

Only on my phone but that link has a video feature article on him from a few days ago

 

[manureid]

3rd tall fwd. So I guess he needs to wait until the coach is sacked to get a game?

We need our WA posters help for some further insights on Mitchell. Grave Danger TheFVK, TeeKray Power Raid Ishikawa and any others over there I have forgotten about.

Was certainly hoping he got to the Eagles, his father was on the fringes of Subiaco's 1986 flag (last flag before the Eagles), a good footballer, 2nd tall in todays language. Mitch appeals as in the same mould, I saw him as a Jack Darling replacement in 3-4 years.
Jarrad Schofield would know him well.

I posted elsewhere - but given he was at Subiaco surely Schoey would have had a bit of inside knowledge based on his 2018 season.

we will know how much inside knowledge Schoey has with the club / coaches if we draft Ben Sokol with either of our new picks (pick 55 or pick 66)

 

[Macca19]

Very astute pick. Will do well.

 

[Relativity]

I think sometimes people focus too much on a couple of cm's instead of the player's attributes.

That's what I keep telling my missus.

 

[Ports1870]

If we give him games I reckon he’ll be good

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

If we give him games I reckon he’ll be good

And there’s your problem right there

 

[Ports1870]

And there’s your problem right there

Hinkley goes and the new coach hopefully has a different mentality towards talls.

The Summer of Georgiades.

 

[Ports1870]

If Marshall and this kid develop well enough then we probably just need to add in another 195+ forward and that line would be set for the next 10 years

I'm in The Netherlands now so would have been better placed to report on De Koning*


*spoiler- if he's true Dutch he's tall as **** with the coordination of a drunk giraffe

Welcome Mitchell

 

[blaargh]

I love this pick. The perfect risk for us, at the perfect time.

Looking forward to seeing Mitch develop.

I assume he's the son or nephew of John






kicked eight goals in his first game before doing a knee
