Very good value there plenty upside both have the tools to work with.
Can't confirm whether the club has but saw this one line on BF> Kaden Harbour. Richmond has been speaking to him. Could be a chance.
Would need to come with a later pick.
Admittingly watching and reading info about many youngsters, I don't know a hell of a lot about Harbour. So I gathered up some info.
Many of us have been impressed by Ronald Fego Jr but curious to hear what PREnders thoughts are on Kaden Harbour.
#5 Kaden Harbour (East Perth)
The pressure forward had a game to remember, bringing his usual energy and frantic approach to tackling to the game and forcing mistakes from the opposition with his relentless pressuring. It wasn’t just pressure work from Harbour, he proved to be lively in offensive play as well, with his ability to consistently hit front-and-centres and following up with generally sound disposal. Harbour maintained his composure through traffic, holding his hands high to keep them free and pass it off to a teammate. Harbours also took more and more inside 50 marks as the game went on, but was unable to convert on the scoreboard.

EAST PERTH SMALL FORWARD
Weight: 78kg
D.O.B: 26-09-2003
Leagues: WAFL Colts

POSITION: Small Forward
Playing part in the East Perth Colts side throughout season 2021, Harbour proved to be a headache for opposition defenders. He ran amok with his urgency to win the ball inside forward 50, creating plenty of pressure and opportunities to lay tackles. The small forward averaged 12.2 disposals and four tackles a game in the Colts to go with his 17 goals, and whilst stringing consistent performances is something he’ll be working on in the future, he has shown plenty of promise in his appearances.
Harbour is a prospect who has developed strongly over the course of the year, coming from a ways back to earn state Under 19 representative honours and a draft combine invite. While still very much an impact player, he showcased his work rate at all levels in 2021 - working up the ground, harassing the opposition, and looking to do damage going back towards goal with his pace and penetrating kicking.
STRENGTHS:
+ Tackling pressure
+ Forward craft
+ Speed
+ Kick penetration
IMPROVEMENTS:
- Kicking consistency
- Production

With carving agility and great foot skills, Fejo is a real threat going forward on the outside. He cuts through defensive lines like a hot knife through butter, backing his pace to take the game on and provide each side he turns out for with some genuine attacking flair. While he has noticeable class on the ball, Fejo will be working on building his consistency and adding strength to his frame.

West Adelaide - SANFL

Not hard to believe how many bottom 4 finishes they have had and first round picks and tanked.
They cant pick quality kids with 1st rounders. They capitulate.
Trade away pick 7 & 15 for 5 picks in the 20's/30's. where they excell.
They seem to be more open with decisions on picking kids with 2nd & 3rd rounders.
They are useless with first rounders.
They need to stay home the first night and turn up on Friday when the 3rd and 4th rounders are on And then the rookie draft
The only problem here is that we don't have a later pick and if we commit to Biggy and Cumberland as Rookies fairly sure we don't have any room there either.
Seems unlikely
Depends. If we plan to trade up the draft then it makes sense to have a look at guys that might be there.
Lets say we trade up to Pick 9 (11) with 15 and 28 then we would still have a spot, either on the main list or the rookie list.
Sounds like a Richmond man, frenetic pressure, tackling and forcing turnovers.
No, we haven't had good picks. There are plenty of failed draftees in the 11-20 range over the years.
Ellis and Lennon were awful picks.
I still stand by that Higgins was still an ok pick at 17 but a bit of luck went against us (with the brain injury) and maybe some list management failures.
So we have failed with 2 picks but you come across like its endemic. Geez.
What about Brando? Over 150 games and 2 premierships, is he a failure? Or what about Vlastuin? Or Dan Rioli? Are his 3 premierships failures?
Maybe a training squad addition and potential preseason pick ala Stack and Mansell
Not sure what you mean here. Are you saying lost and at sea with his kicking early on. Nah.. ask his mother?

Dusty is a freak of nature but Chol and Noah, just look to me like they have been beautifully trained from the start of their careers.
Looking forward to seeing if any of the same has rubbed off on his cousin. Maaaate.
2019 he played 13 games and averaged 3.9 clangers a game, in his first 6 games of that season he averaged 4.5 clangers. The following season he played 17 games and averaged 2.4 clangers. I remember those matches well because I had a lot invested in Balta having followed him for two years and being his primary advocate on PRE. He looked like a deer in headlights, but the club persisted by throwing him in various roles until he found his rhythm. Same prescription needed for Goater and I wouldn't be restraining his natural game either, he will make mistakes but I expect a steep learning curve.
Are we recruiting Goater as a mid of half back? I hate the idea of trying to turn someone into something that is not his strength.
We are recruiting him as a mid, he's shown enough clearance ability to have some level of confidence that he can make that transition. I suspect he'll play wing or half back until he puts on weight but the goal should be centre square duties where his acceleration and clean hands could be put to good use.
He gave away 14 frees in his first 5 games. They are clangers. Thats half the total. Kicking was never an issue.
