Pick 33 ~ Liam Mcbean

Richmond



Player statistics

    Former club:Calder Cannons
    DOB:25/08/1994
    Height:203cm
    Weight:86kg

Player assessment

Lightly framed ruckman/key defender who can win the ball in the air and at ground level. Very agile player who is gifted athletically and makes good decisions with the football. Is an accurate shot for goal when he goes forward. Played mainly as a key defender in 2012 AFL U18s Champs where he’s still developing his game. Dangerous as a tall forward.

We tried a ruckman that was built like a pear. We tried a ruckman that was built like Tarzan.
Lets hope this guy is just a good footy player.

Nah, you're wrong Al, it takes 4-5 years to develop a big man.   ::)

I wanted him too at this pick if we passed on Grundy. Just hope he can put on the Kgs without losing too much agility/mobility.

Selection 33 – Liam McBean
richmondfc.com.au
Thu 22 Nov, 2012

Richmond has added another ruck prospect to its list, taking Calder Cannon Liam McBean with pick 33 in the National Draft.

McBean, standing 203cm, has also shown an ability to play as a key defender through his time in the TAC Cup, and in the National U18 Championships.

“Liam has played the last two years as a forward/ruckman with the Calder Cannons, combining his time with school football commitments at St Bernard's College,” said Richmond Recruiting Manager Francis Jackson.

“He is a highly rated young developing ruckman who has also been a member of the AFL AIS Academy in 2011 and 2012.”

“Liam's strengths are his abilities to read the flow of the game and get to many contests with his running ability.

“His overhead ruckwork is very good, but his standout feature is his ability to play as an extra midfielder on the ground, making good decisions with the football and damaging with his possessions.

“Liam is an excellent user of the ball by foot and is a big man who we genuinely want to have the ball in his hands due to his creativity and efficiency.

“He will be given very chance to develop into the versatile tall at AFL level we think he can be, and will be pushing for his chance in the next few years.”
