Is getting an invite an indicator though? I thought a lot of blokes turn them down to stay TAC/SANFL/WAFL

No aspiring AFL player in their right mind would turn down an invite to the AIS/AFL Academy.

If you know that you are locked into a Father/Son pick, then the AIS invitation is yours to deny. For mine, I think he would still go, but if it clashed with something at home or school, he could easily pass.

I just said he DID NOT receive an invite. Billy didn't really set the world on fire at last years U16 national champs so he's got some work to do. Let's just wait and see before declaring he's the next Jack Viney.

Or maybe he's not good enough to get an AIS invite....

Blasphemy!

We could use a Nahas type...

A Hird type would be better.

Surely Jack Viney has to be the first Jack Viney before he can be the next Jack Viney :-)

Billy is a long stretch behind that.

Stretch shirked a contest and was tarred by that, but at his best was a very, very good player. If he was on our current list and at at his best he would probably be the best player we would have.

Think it was against Dipper in the GF wasn't it, with everyone watching. Dunno what supplements those Hawks were on but they were twice the bulk of Swooper's skilful Melb side.

There are some wonderful hangers of Stretch while roaming the wings, on YouTube. Nice accurate kick too. One of my favourites.

The few reports I've had indicate that the boy can play and loves the Dees. I think he's eligible for draft next year. Sorry, had to step out of the gloom.

Pretty sure he'll be 17 next year and if he's half as committed as Jack Viney it's a great start.

He did do work experience at the club. I'm sure there must be a good line about what he learnt during his time. Someone help me.

He learned what not to do in order to be a successful footballer.

Article on the SANFL website about him playing for Glenelg u/17's?

My cousin is involved at Glenelg. Billy's played a handful of U18's games & a game for the reserves. He's doing pretty well considering he should be playing U17's.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders. Windsor's run won't be lost playing off half back. In 19 games in 2024 he kicked 8 goals as a winger. I see him getting shots at g

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
