It means he was a Melbourne member, until, like most afl prospects, he realised he'd likely have to give away his allegiances at some stage, so he did.

Nothing more.

Along the lines as that crap term MFCSS or similar?

It hurts that # 1 pick threads are back again. I thought this forum was past that for the next decade.

He means he loves watching footy but got sick of the dribble we served up so he moved on.

SOLD! Dunn, Bater, Juice and 1st round pick for Patton lol!

If, as suggested, he's just going to leave anyway why would GWS give us pick #1 for him? They could have Scully and Patton and we'll get some dinky compensation pick that will be used well after this bloke has been snapped up.

You're suggesting that we trade a kid who we know is going to be a gun for this player I've only just heard about?

i thinkin we should do a swap with tom scully and him..hes 17 and at 197 centermetres and he also ways 97kg.we all know that tom will leave so whyn not just think about this

No way, Scully is the best prospect of a Melbourne player being a superstar since Allan Jackovich (who did not become one due to laziness, booze and girls). I don't rate Lyon as a superstar, the closest we have had in my life time is Flower but you can't become a super star if you play for a team that almost always finished in the bottom 3.

Why because you get excited by a 196cm 97kg kid dominating 18 year olds.

Will need to look at him play but recruiters need to be careful with Tom Hawkins types where they are too big and too strong for their opponents.

Yes TH makes JW look like the recruit of the century.

He is probably not Robinson Crusoe

My daughter did the same at 12.

Still ribs with " why do you still follow that bunch of cream puffs" 21 years later.

This kid is the real deal, first time I saw him play he bagged back to back goals from 50m out on the boundary. It certanitly left an impression on me and he has managed to step up this year with massive expectations. Looking forward to seeing him in the U/18 champs.

    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.

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
