AT 178cm and 77kgs I think it is fair to say he will not be a wrecking ball at AFL level for quite some time. The good news is you cannot train draftees to have guts, heart and testicular fortitude. Jack has it!!

The apple hasn't fallen far from the tree.

what you say is dead right.. hed be bouncig off a few players just at the moment...but given his tender years he ought to be nearer Beamer by the time he hits the deck for Melbourne ( maybe just a few kilos lighter...but not much. He ought to put on 7-8 kg over next 18 months youd think.

Absolutely right about the in built GnD. Hes going to all but kill someone.... he and Tappy ought to scare a few over the years....Its great isnt it :)

    Actually that is a very solid weight for a kid of that age. Tapscott is 180cm and 87kg. Jones is 180 and 82.

    He's already training at MFC from what I understand and they'll try to bulk him somewhat both end of this year and end of next year.

    Assuming he doesn't grow any more I reckon 85kg is a good number. If he does grow, I'd go up to about 88. You'd probably want him the size of Paul Chapman, who's 179 and 88.

    Anyway, back on to the pics...

    I don't know if it's been mentioned yet but young Jack played very well for the Oakleigh Chargers last Saturday and was named in the best players.

    The Chargers are on the fringe in the finals race and I'm not sure whether he'll be available due to school commitments anyway.

    Here he is on the boundary during a recent Chargers game.

    Thanks Pink.

    Far out, he's got a good frame. He's going to be ruthless in that league this time next year. Pity the fools that are bottom-aged players.

    You are sick, mate

  • Quote

    Why?

    A "good frame" is usually spoken in reference to a women with a hot body.

    "he's well built or stocky bugger" would've been better.

    I cringed.

    We need a mosquito fleet. I'd love a team combined of the Hawks mainstays plus Betts and Garlett & Rioli, plus add a couple of Cats to the mix for power.

    Wow, I must be getting too old. I have never in my life said that a woman with a hot body has a "good frame". It actually doesn't make much sense when you think about it.

    If that made you cringe KIL, I think you better lock yourself in your room, with no computer access whatsoever.

    BOG for the Chargers today.

    The win gets Oakleigh into the finals.

    I agree he played well- especially under pressure

  • Quote

    check out the frame on the kid in the photo!

    Jack looks as developed as most AFL players in their 2nd year, and he's still a year away.

    Great to see. Just hope it doesn't stunt his growth and that it translates to the next level.

    Cant remember exactly how it was said, but on Footy Classified last night they mentioned Jack and said that he was as absolute ripper and nearly harder than his old man already.

  • Quote

    They had better book a weekly spot for us at MRP then as his old man was made out of granite.

    Its all sounding very promising but lets remember he's still playing jumior football.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
