Humphries is legit. At only 15, he's extremely skilled for a 7 footer

And that's the way it looks, a solid team to compete in SEABL

Humphries is 7 foot, Froling is 6'8. Humphries also started for that U17 team while Froling got limited minutes
Not taking anything away from Froling, he's a great player. But not at Humphries' level.
As far as I know, out of the new crop of AIS athletes selected for next year, Humphries was the only one who didn't have to trial, all of the other athletes trialed for their place. Humphries was immediately offered a place with no trial. That's saying something!

Yes ^^

All of the others trialed for the remaining spots

So what you are saying if some names don't appear on the list of recipients it should be assumed they did not make it?

As far as I know the visit was organized around introducing a new BA CoE structure with the main aim to attract the prospective scholarship recipients to accept the offer. For example Wilson has been also offered an AIS/AFL scholarship. Will White is probably in a similar position. To my knowledge they were both there ... whether they will accept the BA offer, we'll see.

If Perry keeps working hard (legit 7 footer), with Humphries (hopefully 7 footer soon) and Akintola, the U17 team is looking good. Froling will need to work hard on his inside game, but he is still young so plenty of time.

Humphries is 7 foot. Perry is a good 7'1. So that's just a solid frontcourt. Humphries game is more refined than Perry's, regardless both will improve immensley under Lemanis and Longley down in Canberra.

Looks like Will White is very focused on his AFL prospects, which make it doubtful he'll join the AIS. Not sure about Wilson

Jock Londale wasn't picked in the Country Vic team ahead of Molloy (the athlete from Warragul your referring to) Londale was in the u20s age group this year, Molloy was bottom age U18s

Humphries is 7 foot! Adidas nations and his school have listed him as 7 foot so we'll go by those numbers. He's definitely a finesse big, only 15 so his development is exciting.

I assume Perry made the U17 team because of his height, he's 7'1. That's quite useful

Vasiljevic is headed to CoE too.
Michael Luxford has turned his back in hoops and is with AFL cats

LOL. who names a kid 'jock'

Sam McKinnon coached a talented group and from what I observed, he is a level headed coach with lots of positive things to say to his kids. He got the best out of that group, individually and as a team.

Isaac isn't quite 7 feet tall, nearly 6' 11' on court though, great kid!

@ guesswhosBACK/youknowME do you even think before you post. "LOL who names a kid Jock" good one fool. How long until you get asked to take a break from hoops.com again fool? some of those Sudanese names are funny right.

Deng Gak - I have coached against him and he's a very very surprising selection. From Blacktown area of Sydney. I believe missed U16 Nationals in Adelaide with injury. From what I have seen, he's tall (not sure of exact height) but lacks the skill level at the moment to compete at next level. Also fairly immobile and defence is limited to taking swats at the ball attempting to block shots. Certainly not someone I would have picked but who knows how he'll go down there. Good luck to him

Rumour around the grape vine is Tanner Krebs has accepted a scholarship to the COE. Not sure if it's true but it wouldn't surprise me. He is a very talented player with great potential.

Refer Schueller thread.
When are the C of E scholarships gonna be announced by the way?

WhoDat, why does every comment you ever have talk up Takner Krebs? Everyone knows you have potential Tanner but there's no need to boast about yourself!
