Did some good pressure things, and if not for an unlucky bounce he would have finished with two goals. Not sure if it'll be quite enough for him to hold his place in the side if we have players coming back next week, but there's clearly a lot of potential there.

Love the kid and hope he turns out to be a 200+ player for us but what does he really offer that we didn’t already have from Callum son of Rowdy….who BTW is tearing it up in the VFL for Boxhill (Callum not Rowdy).
Callum may not have been able to take that important step up to stay on an AFL list…I’m a glass half full type but I think HH might be on the same trajectory….VFL star also ran in AFL…sorry
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men...
Harry H must be impressing the coaches to be selected a second time and in a definate big game
To be in the 22 and not squeezed out by more experienced VFL players is a feather in his cap
Go young man on the biggest game you’ve ever experienced.
Their tipping a record VFL/AFL record attendance & that be over the 1958
99,600.
Boy what a game for a young man to step into should they crack the 100,000.
I’m pleased he got a second consecutive game. His performance was ok but he will be so much more ready and prepared for the occasion second time around. Could have easily kicked two on debut, so there’s enough to suggest he can hit the scoreboard and hopefully make an impact in todays game also.

I'm certain the 1958 record will never be broken under the current seating arrangements and capacity.
Anzac Day games always max out at about 95K, and they're usually the best opportunity of breaking the record.
I can see today being high 80s (maybe 88K-89K) or even sneaking over 90K.
^ Did some good things.
Showed good composure in the first quarter to kick a goal under pressure and his lace up pass to Cox who kicked the set shot in the second quarter was excellent.
I don't see him remaining in the team once Elliott and Ginnivan are back, but he'll be good depth for us.
I’d keep trying to get games into him. I think the boy has it, and once he feels he belongs he will get better.
McInnes, on the other hand, might have marked his card today. He has had a few good looks at AFL level, and looks a bit of a Ben Crocker to me : good player, just not quite up to the level. That miss in the square was the difference.
Some nice passages of play from Triple H on the weekend.
Maybe I've rose coloured glasses for no.36, but there's something about him. Looking forward to seeing him after his 3rd pre-season going into 2024.
I'd like to think he'll develop as an apprentice to Mitchell or Adams as father time catches them.
