Did anyone else go the the MCG over the weekend to watch the National U/18 Championships ?
Brock McLean, the nephew of Ricky McLean, played very well for Vic Metro. He's a 182 cm on-baller with good speed and courage, and with half reasonable disposal. Exactly the type we need at RFC. He got quite a lot of the footy - I was amazed he wasn't in Vic Metro's best players.
I understand though that his father played at Carlton, and as Brock played in the U/17 Ireland series (where he also played very well) that he is only 16 and thus won't be eligible for this year's draft. Can anyone confirm this ?
I watched 3 games on the weekend in their entirety, so if anyone wants to know how certain players fared, or has wind of any potential players that we may be recruiting, let me know and I'll give you my "unprofessional" view of how they performed in the first game of the Championships.
