Welcome Kaelan Bradtke
- Thread starter tigerman
- Start date
It's just taken Bauer half a season last year and all of this season to get a look at a senior game and he came from a higher level of comp than Bradtke. Bradtke needs another pre season end of this year plus then some hopefully premium VFL performances early next season before we should seriously consider him for AFL level. Might get thrown into seniors early next year with Jaaack retiring, but I'd hope we can set up with the Lynch man, Samsung, Funky n Bauer as the main forward contenders to start with
He seems to be a bit "heavy legged" to me, a plodder I suppose. The club listed him so they obviously see something in him. At the moment I can't see him making it to AFL level, but, I've been wrong many times before. I know it's early days in his career, I truly hope he makes it but we'll have to wait & see.
He looks like a bit of a lumberer, and that running style! Wow. The big wrap on him was his athleticism but I haven't seen any of it. But I wish him well.
Def on the improve , reckon he needs to really grab a game by the scruff and kick 4+ to be on the radar , he’s threatening and going in right direction
Needs to lose 5-10 kegs imo to have any chance of making it. Hope he gets another pre season.
hes not slow but he’s not fit either , runs out of gas , I’m sure he’ll get another pre season
He's come up from bush footy to VFL level so that's a fair step to start with. Big bodied bloke so looks a bit top heavy n could probably lose up to five kegs and try to build some lower core strength and a bit more tank. Hopefully he might surprise a few of us by late next year as I'm thinking there's enough to work with. Think he might be another who could find a bit more of that desperate narky prick in his game, plays a bit nicely at the moment from what I've seen.
Reckon there’s a bit to work with , coming from a long way back and no doubt still adjusting to the disciplines of been an AFL player , big pre season and we may have a much improved player.
Yep agree I actually think his last 2 vfl games have been really promising starting to clunk some good marks. He missed a few weeks from injury to.
He looks to have really bulked up last 18mth , yea could lose a few kegs build his tank and give himself the very best chance at making it
Time for a look at this specimen against North - give him a taste and give Jack a little chop out
