I think you mean Allen Jakovich 

No he actually meant Weird Al Yankovic.

Had the pleasure of sitting next to Oliver at the MFC season launch function, with Ooze sitting on the other side of Oliver.
 

He commented on the significant step up required in fitness, but said he’d already cut his 2km time, by I think it was 20 seconds, pre and post Christmas. We had a great chat about footy and non footy stuff and he was more than happy to answer questions from everyone else at the table.  Not sure if Ooze is naturally close to all the new draftees, but he clearly has a very close bond with Oliver, based on their interactions that night.
 

I’m watching his VFL season with added interest, really hope he can make it.

Both Goulburn Valley lads so I'm guessing they may have bonded over that when meeting.

Hence why young Harley Reid will slide straight in seamlessly ;)

Seston isn't a Goulburn Valley lad. Born and bred in Melbourne and is a classic city slicker/private schoolboy.

Seston only travelled up for a few games for Mansfield under 18's.

I also really like the look of Oliver Sestan he does have that Jacovich “air” about him, good size at 188cm or 6’2” in imperial terms .  I can see him slotting into an attacking forward line  with Bayley Fritsch, JvR and Matty Jefferson in 2024.!!!

He was interviewed on Gus and Gawny's podcast. Absolute unit.

Have a good feeling about him. Seems like the kind of bloke with a ton of talent but never really took footy too seriously growing up. Putting him into a full time, high standard organisation and he could really come on as a real smokey from that draft.

His highlights remind me a lot of Robbie Gray personally.

A good debut...

The beauty about Casey this season is that it will be the kids with a handful of veterans that are driving the team.

Last season it was the vets.

We may not win it but we will have a good idea on our depth and where the list sits at the end.

Sestan can play.

I he has the will to do it he will be a really good story.

Dane Swan???

willo?

Daz - In my comment I was talking about Yze and Oliver, not Seston.

edit:  I don't really know anything about Seston to be honest.  Why would someone play in the GV when under 18 still?  I get it if you're a senior player and chasing some $$$ but is it common for U/18's to do this??

Here's your starter for ten.  His surname is Sestan.

I'm a tool.  Literally 5 hours later I realise you were talking about Oliver Sestan - not Clayton Oliver (who I was referring to)..... which makes sense noting its an Oliver Sestan thread.

Yep, I shanked that completely.  Apologies for the confusion.

You can take the boy out of the city, but you can never take the city out of the boy!
