Jake Bowey...

Post: # 1944112Post WellardSaint »

9th or 10th game.

34 touches, 9 marks, 16 intercept possies, 565 m gained.
125 AF points. 3rd highest ranked on the ground, after Touk Miller and the Tractor (the latter's Disposal Efficiency was 53% :shock: )

Can someone tell me how our young draftees are travelling?
Any of them getting these numbers?

I suspect his numbers are abnormally high because
- he's very young
- Suns had hands full thinking about Clayton Oliver, Trac, etc
They may not have given much thought to a 9-10 gamer

Missed out on him because we gave an earlier pick to Richmond for Jack Higgins.

Shame we couldn't have picked up both. With our new, lower draft pick we selected Allison.

He is so composed he looks like a 200 gamer, great get by the Dees. We would be trying to turn him into a small forward aka Hind.

You need to blame Ken Sheldon for Bowey not being at our club. Treated Jake's dad as a whipping boy. Would have played 100 games for us had he had a more supported coach. Was one of the few players with exceptional foot skills in the team at that time. Now, I'm sure we would have picked Jake if we'd had the opportunity. Even if we hadn't traded for Higgins, Melbourne's pick would still have been before ours. Completely out of our control.

Another example of posters, because of their anger and frustration at where we're at, trying to find all kinds of reasons to kick the club, even when it's completely irrelevant and not connected to any decision made by people at our club. If you're going to point the finger at the people in charge at the moment, make sure it's actually something they're responsible for.

From memory, Bowser didn’t adapt so well to Waverley. Both he and Danny Craven seemed to be more effective on the smaller grounds, like Moorabbin. I agree, however, that he had excellent foot skills. Pretty handy in front of the goals, too, averaging at around a goal /game.
