List Mgmt. Welcome Harvey Johnston (Pick 49, 2023 National Draft)

[jaxxon]

His attitude is amazing and will drive others along, quietly impressed with his skill and poise as well.

 

[wce4premiership]

Does have a weird handball action at times, uses the base of the palm rather than a fist. Love the composure he has though and he'll be side stepping people in no time, has good feet like Cole sometimes has under heavy pressure.

 

[Keys]

Hope we can get him on a similar weights program to what we did with Hough

Really like what I’ve seen from this kid

 

[THE A5]

Exciting defensive set up with him, Ginbey and Hough.

 

[Quinz]

Hope he makes it, looks like a culture leader type person. Loves playing footy, keeps it grounded and fun. Good for team spirit.

Love the Whopper already.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

Alesana delivers again.

Watch 0:41. Watch both passages from 1:11. Watch the dance in front of goal, albeit a phenomenal defensive play to stay with him and stick the tackle.

Kid has some sauce, and unlocks the game by hand better than anyone on our list bar Yeo it would appear.

Lock him into the side for 2024 and the first month of 2025 with no penalty for taking it on whenever he likes.

Loving him but that fakey baulk was terribly telegraphed, you could see it coming a mile away.

It was a bit funny actually

Gotta say we have got some real value in the past 3 drafts with late picks.

2021: Jack Williams (Pick 57)
2022: Noah Long (Pick 58)
2023: Harvey Johnston (Pick 49)

As a draft watcher, I was really really happy with all 3 selections as knew we'd got some real value.
I'm quietly confident with the depth in this draft we will again this year with a later pick.

He just seems like such a nice bloke, too. Kind of guy you’d like playing with. Wouldn’t surprise to see him in a leadership role a bit earlier than what you might expect.

Really enjoying his composure this year with ball in hand. Consistency will come in time but certainly the last couple of weeks he looks like he feels like he belongs at the level a bit more now.

It bodes really well for the preseason ahead. If we can get him on the Hough weight program I think he could genuinely play more inside/outside. Turns 19 on Sunday- here’s hoping we can get another win for him.

 

[TOA.]

Has better vision and hands than 95% of our list. Similar traits to Long.

We just need to find a couple of good size gun mids to help Harley.

 

[Lia]

Love his attitude. Where do we think his best position will be?

So excited to see Long and Hewett back next year.

Mentioned that saw him among others at the cricket today. Seems incredibly popular among the boys. Just someone I hope to see in the 22 next year.

Was up and about when a beach ball came out, hit it a couple times then spiked it with his dodgy arm straight into some old lady lol.
