#19 - Kayle Gerreyn

If he comes on he looks a much better option as a key forward/back up ruck than either Bryan or Draper.

Yeah I like the early signs from him. Looks like even outside of Kako that this draft could be a really good one for us. ■■■■ we need it!

He moves well, has a lovely kicking action and can take a mark. A great prospect.

I think Players Full Name could be a good pickup.

Totally agree.
Be great to see Draper solo rucking with G train (once he gets up to speed).
Not a fan of playing Draper & Bryant together…

He’s noticeably lost about 5kg’s since being drafted. So yeah - last in his first ever time trial but he put the work in after that.

He was better with Shaq

refreshing to see a young player be strong in the contest, hold a contested mark and have good foot skills.

He’s pretty important to our list build, this guy. If he works out, even just to be a 25-30 goal 2nd forward who can take the 2nd ruck spot, he’ll be very useful. And a great accompaniment to Caddy.

Coming along nicely, wish the selection committee would be brave and play him and Hayes this week.

… so Wright? :sweat_smile:

Basically, Wright if he was a better contested player.

And about 9 years younger.

Imagine he would have more trouble than Stringer manning up in AFL game.

Might mean he gets on the end of a few cheapy goals though.

No way Brad selects Gerryn after 1, 3 goal game, when he ignored Baldwin and Voss for years when they were producing 4-5 goal games on occasion.

Can’t believe that we’ve let this guy languish in the VFL for so long!

On a serious note, this guy feels like the sort of guy who would be best served with a 2 year apprenticeship in a VFL, a couple of big pre seasons with fitness focus, and direct craft coaching/mentorship in a good system. There’s a lot of tools there.

In other words, he’s boned.

odds are he’ll get the 2 year vfl apprenticeship though

This guy is pretty exciting. He looks so confident ball in hand and he’s an enormous unit.

Almost Brody Grundy-esque when he used to get involved around the ground.
