I’ve made 7 videos of Kako’s games so far this season with more to come. I keep a handy playlist of them if you want to check out how he plays:

Thanks, where would you position him in the draft ?

Thanks.

He does seem to have a good sense of where to position and how to time runs for crumbs from pack marking situations.

Somewhere in the teens, but its worth baring in mid that this year the first round is super deep. There’s nobody outside of last years top 10 that I would have in this years first round, or even a little beyond that.

Kako is a really talented kid.

14. Isaac Kako (13)
Calder Cannons/Vic Metro
FWD, 175cm
2024 Champs: 4 games, 14.5 disposals, 1.2 tackles, 2.0 goals

Kako has the bag of tricks befitting the game’s best small forward. He kicks goals on the fly regularly, hitting the contest at full steam and exiting with ball in hand. He’s an excitement machine and converted his set shots on the weekend, plus has the acceleration and energy to become an excellent pressure forward. Kako was Vic Metro’s most consistent forward across the championships, and has shown flashes of on-ball ability for the Cannons. As an Essendon NGA product, the Bombers could be the biggest beneficiary of sweeping changes to NGA bidding rules.

I’d like an ‘excitement machine’ but i’d love an excitement machine that runs on ‘magic’. So an indigenous Kako please.

I think Essendon made a deal with the AFL. If they change the NGA rules this year, we will not appeal suspensions or complain about poor umpiring.

I hope he’s good. Current small forwards are putrid.

I assume he’s lobbying the AFL to change the NGA rules back so we can’t match a bid on him.

Now if we would stop kissing ourselves that we can win a final lol

Perfect year would have been to play kids find out who can can’t play

We already know the obvious ones who are getting games this year

Finish bottom 3

Gets great pick plus KAKO

Nah not us

So the genuine consensus is Kako is an automatic pick next year in the 1s and answers our forward line problems? I dont think so :rofl: :rofl:

Cal and Riley on gettable both said if Kako was on the list right now, he would play/have played last night.
Which is more a reflection on our small forwards than Kako himself.
