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.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
