The Myles Sewell Thread

Featured Replies

Posted

I'm watching the VFL game between Collingwood and North Ballarat. Myles Sewell, the brother of Brad, is tearing the Pies a new one with 21 p's and a goal at half time. He won the JJ Liston trophy earlier this week. He was captain of North Ballarat in the TAC, won their BnF and came 2nd in the TAC coaches award as an U/18 and he won a flag with NB last year in his first year in the VFL. He's 21, a 187cm inside midfielder who is said to have elite endurance. From watching him his strength is his game sense and his quick disposal by hand, he's an ok kick and doesnt seem to be that quick. He reminds me a bit of Shane Tuck in that he's tall for a midfielder, pretty rangy and wins alot of contested footy. Given that we probably dont need this type of player i wouldnt look at him for the ND although if he were still there come rookie draft time id go for him.

 

Yeah, I've kept my eye on him the last month - will be drafted, no doubt.

Remains to be seen by whom.

They said on SEN that he's a late bloomer, like his brother. Pace thing is a concern though. That, and the whole Beamer, Brock, Jones nexus.

Agree. Might join his brother. They are chasing everyone else who can kick a footy, even girls according to the president.

He will be drafted, have spoken to a Collingwood supporter at work who has heard they will try him late with pick 62 if available. I can see him going to the Hawks or other before pick 62.

Might be a flyer with pick 34, although I do think the dees have a short list for that pick and may go for someone younger.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
