Kevin Sheehan reveals his top NAB AFL Draft Prospects: Tall forwards/rucks

There’s such a shortage of tall forwards and rucks that Shifter’s covering both categories in one article.

If you want a tall then next year’s the year for it. There’s a 199cm tall from SA called Harry Lemmy who will be all the rage next year as a key position forward prospect. 

 

Perception is everything when we talk about footballers. 

Here’s a comparison drawn by Twitter poster Joshua Kay

Nic Naitanui

194 H&A games
33 Brownlow votes

Shane Mumford

nic is a 3-time all oztrayan as well, plus likely has at least two years left in his body

But they both had significant impact on the outcome of games for their respective sides and one a hell of a lot cheaper than the other

Dave Grohl is a big fan of young Josh and has already nicknamed him "Monkey".

Was he nicknamed by "shifter" Sheehan?

Fron SEN on Blake Howes and Josh Rentsch

Blake Howes

“Wingman from the Sandringham Dragons. 190cm and pretty athletic,” Twomey said.

“He’s somewhere around the 30 mark for me.”

Josh Rentsch

“He’s a big key forward, a strapping lad from the Ballarat region,” Twomey said.

“He kicks it a mile and reminds me of a little bit of Tim Membrey. He just gets the ball, clunks it and kicks goals.

“He won the Morrish Medal (tied with Flynn Lakey).

“He’s probably a second half of the draft prospect.”

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
