      He appears in this video. He is the Eastern Ranges player who takes a mark starting at 45 seconds.

        Inside football write up says:

        "A 19 year old, first year in the system, he has great hands, is super competetive, really good athletically in terms of his jump, loves a physical contest, and gets his hands dirty at ground level. Probably not big enough to play ruck, but 195-196cm, could he end up playing key position forward to start with. That's where he played his best footy for the year, which was his first game against Oakleigh. The difference between his best and worst is poles apart, and it's just that confidence in himself".

        Strengths: hands, competitveness, physicality
        Needs to Improve: Consistency, confidence

              Geez he moves well for a big guy.

              We've clearly prioritized size and speed this draft.

                Has great hands and looks to have a bit of toe as well. Can see what attracted us.

                  Times his jump well both marking and in ruck set ups. Is Bevo about to transform the game again with 4 or 5 ruck hybrids in one team?

                    Gone quite tall this draft that is for sure.

                    I guess it gives some of our fringe mids more time to develop, ie Dale, Hamilton, Webb, Prudden, before making further judgements on them or having more 1st year players take their opportunities, ie Dunks.

                      Had to double check the old records, his surname reminded me of our 1998 Pre-Season 1st rounder Cameron MacKenzie-McHarg. Let's hope he's more successful than Cameron.

                          Seems like we have a type, welcome to the Premiers young fella.(I so love typing that)

                            Maybe now we'll finally develop our own key forward (not counting Boyd who we traded in even if he was young)

                            Making use of Cloke while he's here I guess, which is definitely what I wanted us to do.
