Howard Who Indeed.....

Re: Online Draft Stream

Nice article about him in the Drafts and Trading board from this mornings Advertiser for those interested. Was thought to be a big bolter. A beautiful kick, said to be a mixture of Luke Hodge and Andrew Mackie.

Just on the AFL Draft Tracker. Howard is the only player without a video or Player Profile....

Re: Online Draft Stream

I can't believe this! JMP was AVAILABLE. I would've taken JMP in a heartbeat!

Re: Online Draft Stream

According to Inside Football, Howard is 184cm 81kg.

"Christian is an ex-Sacred Heard College boy who we were a little disappointed with in the first half of the year because it took him a while to establish what he needed to do and the work rate required. But, his last half of the year was superb. He is one of the best kicks I've seen and he was our designated kicker all year and I don't think he missed a target. He runs off half black, has great running ability, good endurance and trained the house down over pre-season. Has learned to really play the team stuff this year". - Glenelg development manager Brenton Hole.

Glenelg boy - BIG surprise that selection there.

Kerching!

Re: Online Draft Stream

Just checked some phantom drafts - Howard went in the 40s - 60s.

Curious choice on the face of it.

Howard is 187cm, very good physique and a fantastic kick, so should be a very good fit.

Re: Online Draft Stream

Black to North at #25 - big surprise he slipped so far, North would be rapt to land him and Cunnington.

Yes, you would be stoked. Hopefully we land a Norwood boy to balance it out a bit

Re: Online Draft Stream

Still some good players on the table - wonder what direction will go now with our second selection?

Ball to Collingwood.

Matt Burgan: Howard is fascinating. It was no surprise at all that he got drafted. Recruiters rated him as one of the best kicks in the draft. He played in Glenelg's under 18 premiership. A wing/half-back. There was speculation from one recruiter prior to the draft that he would be a top 30 pick.
