Love a flyer - looks like a unit

 

[The rabbi]

Is he a left footer?

 

[CatRiot]

Looks quite speculative, a boom or bust type, and that's okay at this pick. Happy for the punt on him.

Kind of strange as we brought in 3 Mid-sized marking forwards if you include the Irish lad as well.

Would be very surprised if they didn't play Burke off half back.
I NEVER have mail, BUT I've heard from a source a trust(!), that they see him as a mid. Just need to ease him in.

 

[calder_daddy]

Reminds me of Eddie Ford from the Roos
Could be a gun
If he applies himself

He played a fair bit down back in his junior years would think we see him as positionally versatile, especially with all the injuries halting development in draft year.

 

[HELLSBELLS]

Absolute ripper on your hands.

My son played with Keightons younger brother this year at Hillside and have seen Keighton up close over the last few years and he is such a nice humble kid from a ripping family.
Down to earth and just awesome people.

Give Keights the ball forward of centre and he is a chance to kick the goal.
That left foot is something else have watched him 2 step it 65 mtrs on the regular.
Add to that just being so tough and strong.
Could be anything .
Powerhouse.

188cm ? Jees he looks to have a bit of size about him.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Best name in the draft.

Keighton is a mid IF he can build his endurance. Has all the other attributes.

Those are characteristics we target in our draft choices.

We prioritize solid citizens with character.

any idea on his 2k?

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Is he a left footer?

Yep

 

[BennyGan]

Was listening to some guys that are pretty knowledgeable on the draft, they said he as a monster left boot, very good athlete and a really good person. Has apparently been hampered abit with hamstring issues the last 18 months which held back his draft stocks. They said they loved the pick. Sounds like he’s gonna be a pretty easy guy to root for. Love getting in another lefty too.

Saw him play at Keilor last year booming left foot kick and looked a genuine talent could be a very good pick up

Looks like the bloke from Swan Districts

Weve got Alistair and Stewart Lord again , umps might get confused and one of them might win a Brownlow
