The Paul Marschall thread

One to look out for in the national draft ... perhaps at pick 45 or 65 for the Dees

A good kick - we need a few of these types. And doesn't mind it tough either according to some SA mates.

CENTRAL District's Paul Marschall

the 20-year-old running defender is attracting the interest of AFL clubs on the back of his pinpoint foot skills.

Marschall has played every league game this season and quickly become one of the most accurate field kicks in the competition.

Bulldogs coach Roy Laird says Marschall has rarely been beaten this season and is one of the best kicks in his team.

"His ball use is the highlight of his game - he's a very good kick," Laird says. "He's been very good for us to this point."

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!!!

I'm really keen on this guy. I'm really hoping we can nab him with our 4th round pick in the mid 60's.

Hoping he or Dean Towers drops to us there anyway.

Sounds pretty promising, and if he can kick he'll already be better than most of our list so go get him.

 

No harm using pick 45 on him!

Ok, I get that he is a good kick. What else is he good/bad at?

Hows his pace? Personality? Size? Footy Smarts? Workrate? Courage? ect


Paul Marschall s apparently 187cm, 80kg...not a bad size. looks to be a likely type but we've all heard that before...lol

as it says he is 20 already so you would think he would have a stronger body than others in the draft this year. It would be nice to have another good kick out of defence like watts has been this year. If watts ends up developing into a fwd and we have this guy then we would still have a good kick out of defence. go get him!

Anyone interested in seeing SANFL and WAFL games, the matches of the day in each are shown on ABC1 in the early hours of the day on Thursday and Friday mornings so they can be taped on IQ if you have that facility on Foxtel. I assume the finals will also be shown so there's a chance we can get a look at this bloke and a few others in the coming weeks.

I was always a bit of a sceptic about players from these competitions but plenty are now coming through. I saw Puopolo of Hawthorn and Jaensch (Adelaide) playing a couple of years ago in the SANFL. They looked fairly ordinary but Puopolo in particular has slotted in nicely with the Hawks.

I'll look forward to seeing Marschall in due course.

 

Sounds a little bit like James Strauss when we first drafted him! Everyone raved about his kicking but didn't really mention anything else.

And no, that is not a knock on Straussy who I rate very highly. Would just love to know more about Marschall as I think getting a player or two with a few more years experience at WAFL, SANFL or VFL level would be something worth looking at.

Scary lookin' duuuude.

As Olisik said, does anyone know if he has anything other than a nice kick?


That height weight ratio will be wrong - Marschall is quite a big unit - he is a good kick and and strong. Strictly a half-bank flank or defensive winger. He is a very straight line robotic type player and whether he has the agility and ball handling to play AFL will decide whether he makes it or not and whether he gets drafted.

Ok, I get that he is a good kick. What else is he good/bad at?

Hows his pace? Personality? Size? Footy Smarts? Workrate? Courage? ect

Don't know abour personality or workrate olisik. But from what I've heard from some friends in Adelaide he's got pretty good pace and good courage.

I rate him as a similar player to Dean Towers from North Ballarat from the limited footage I have seen of him but possibly not quite as fast given that Towers is as quick as they come.

Yes I believe we would have to consider at pick 45 or 65 for Marschall. Not just a good kick. Watch some SANFL highlights and he also can do all the physical stuff of a half back.

( Towers will go top 40 for me, with likely Cats 2nd round pick #35ish looming his likely home. Cats would see him as a perfect running half back).

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
