I see that Essendrug have signed a young Tom Hird, son of James, as a cat B rookie.

Wonder what year the half French son is eligible for drafting....

Depends whether he’s on a stimulated development program!

I don't usually post in this thread but I do enjoy reading it, um most of the time...

I thought Cat B rookie list was only for (academy players not taken in the main draft) and Players from other sports, who have not been registered with an Australian rules football club for three years.  eg Bradke, Irish players.  

I did read somewhere that Hird was so disgusted with the AFL handling of the drug saga that he wouldn't let his kids play aussie rules so they played soccer. 

Is this a sneaky way of hoarding talent and getting a F/S without going thru the draft...

Hird jnr unsuccessfully perused a soccer career in Europe, that's why he is eligible for Cat B.

Apparently Frenchy's half bro Tom is "small bodied".

So, perhaps not.

Have we got any spots left on the list?

Nieta is out for the year and KK looks unlikely.

Would have a thought a decision on KK might be coming soon, as he doesn't seem to be improving.

With the extent of his ongoing concussion issues, I reckon kk is done. 
Sad, but given the possible future implications , it might be for the best

Yeah, fair enough od.

I was at training wth @Moonshadow just after kk arrived    He was a really affable and keen young bloke.  He was setting himself to play wing.  Sad business 

@old dee, I can reveal that Uncle Bitter gave KK an almighty pat on the back, which forced the young fellow about 4m forward into semi consciousness on the grass.

Dare say his concussion issues have certainly declined since that date.

Uncle might be in need of a reputable lawyer. Where on earth could one be found, I wonder?

Sad business indeed.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
