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

4 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

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: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
