Re: Hrovat Appreciation Society
Might seem a bit retarded but I'm sticking with my 'short Dane Swan' call. Its a ripper draft we've pulled. Seeing good things from Hunter and Prudden as well, if we have nabbed 5 best 22 players its an almost unprecedented draft.Comment

Posted this on BF a little while ago:
I was pleased to see this on the Old Paradians site yesterday:
Hrovat to make history
Nathan Hrovat, schooled at the Bundoora campus from 2007-2009, is on the cusp of creating Parade College football history.
In making his debut for the Western Bulldogs against St Kilda at Etihad Stadium tomorrow, Nathan becomes the 100th known Old Paradian to play senior League football since Thomas Bernard Fogarty turned out for St Kilda way back in 1898.
Nathan has been named as one of four interchange players for the Western Bulldogs in tomorrow’s match against St Kilda at Etihad Stadium.
The plucky midfielder, 14 days short of his 19th birthday, was rewarded for his solid recent form at Williamstown in playing through the centre as well as pushing forward.
Western Bulldogs Assistant Coach Shannon Grant was quoted as saying Nathan had “thoroughly deserved his opportunity after some really good form at Williamstown over the last month or so”.
Nathan, who previously captained the Northern Knights, was taken by the Bulldogs with their third first-round selection (No. 21 overall) in last year’s AFL draft.
He follows the Bulldogs’ Patrick Veszpremi, who became the 99th Old Paradian to debut at senior League level for his former team Sydney back in 2008.
Daniel Currie, a final year Parade student of 2007, is a current senior-listed player for North Melbourne, but yet to complete his senior debut.
Initially, 87 Old Paradians - amongst them "Jock" McHale, "Phonse" Kyne, Peter Bedford, Peter McKenna and Sergio Silvagni - were identified in the lead-up to the naming of "The Pride of Parade" best-ever team in 2011. Since then, a further 12 League footballers ex-Parade, including the 122-game former North Melbourne captain-coach and club best and fairest Charlie Cameron, have extended that tally to 99.
The Old Paradians' Association extends its very best wishes to Nathan Hrovat on the eve of this significant milestone.
As an Old Paradian myself(staff 1990-1999) it is great to have another OP join the ranks of the Bulldogs. Congratulations on a great game yesterday!47 year Doggie member
