Lachlan Hunter?

Re: Lachlan Hunter?

Just a quick report on Hunter. He played in the Metro, Country scratch match. Was barely sighted early on but really improved as the day went on. Kicked a couple of goals and had a hand in at least one other. Foot skills were good again and are becoming quite reliable. Shows a bit of class.

Thanks for the update. what size is he these days?

He's listed at 180cm, 72kg. That could be last year's, it looks like he's filled out a bit more.

Had ten of his twenty touches in the first quarter, was the highest possession getter in the game and was very impressive with his decision making and stoppage work.

What were the conditions like? Seems quite a low number for a game high, though in the championships the ability to share the ball is hampered a little by different attitudes to team ethos and the fact these kids don't play with eachother on a weekly basis.

Good to see he's getting himself amongst it.

That's surprising, saw him get it a few times, didn't think he got that many.

It was a practice match, they played 6 quarters and I don't think anyone played more than 3

Vic Metro and Vic country played 2 separate squads for 3 quarters each which explains why possessions were not high.

That makes a bit of sense, doesn't it!

Re: Lachlan Hunter?

We wish. He would be called something like Tres then

I think Zane no. 2. Deuce is a make believe one.

But a great nickname

Think this may suit us, as Hunter is not a first round pick and it would be considered a huge risk for a team to nominate him early. Even a second round pick may be considered high for him.

I could actually see him slipping to a third round pick if this is the system.

Because of our likely ladder position finish say 12th it would mean only the clubs with the first few picks of the 2nd round could potentially force us to use the 2nd round selection.

It might all hinge on his performance at the draft combine

Plus all the teams with a first round pick after ours. That would also force us to use our 2nd round pick, remember, you use the next available selection.
