We desperately needed a ball winner. Could have just given Cumberland a crack at the role this guy plays. Very underwhelming pick.

Cumberland is 183cm whereas Bauer is 191cm
Bauer is just what we need

What midfielders went after our pick? The good mids were picked before our pick.

I dare say if we were into any of the mids it might've been one who went before our pick.

That said the kid does fill a need and if he kicks on a bit it might open a bit more scope for the recruiting team come the November draft this year.

Set shot run up isn't that awkward looking. Nothing like Kennedy's or Hogan's stuttering run ups.

yeah he has solid momentum and balance all the way through the run up. Gives himself some speed then settles into a straightforward balanced shot

Decision making by the club is consistent with last years draft. Bring in young kids, the next generation.
We could have gone Florenca or another mature pick but instead a 19yo who takes the ball at its highest point, but who does need to fill out and strengthen up.
Sticking with the plan
