98% certain I qualify, Hi!

Qualify for what? The Australian Netball Team?

I've lost track of the multiple conversations going on here.

Should go back to doing some work now.

Did anyone see the very passionate celebrations of the Diamonds in the Netball World Champs after beating the Kiwis?

Certainly ignited my interest.

Spoke to Jack Viney at Casey on sunday and discussed a few of his team mates at Vic Metro. He is not tall but is strongly built like his father. Can still grow a couple of inches I would think. He is a nice boy and looking forward to his AFL career with Melbourne. I hope it is a very good one.

Was very impressed with Max Gawn in conditions that couldn't have been worse for him. His mobility is fantastic. He could be a very good player for us.

Mentioned today that Flash may play against Port in Darwin. Could he be the sub to ease him back?

The sub at Casey for mine (if they had one).

There is no way on earth that Davey should be played on Saturday night. He's been out since round 9 and it's not as if he was setting the world on fire before that. For his and the team's own good, he needs a couple of weeks at Casey to find his feet. The problem is that Casey has a game next week against Frankston and then follows that up with another bye which is really not suitable for any players due to come back from injury in the next couple of weeks.

If he is fit and over the injury, why not play him as the sub. That way he gets some game time and can probably play as our small forward, a position we are not covering. Then he wouldn't need a lot of game time yet could still add to our forward line. Don't know what good it would serve him running around Casey if conditions are like they were on sunday. Then does he miss another week or do you play him in the senior team even if he hasn't played well because of the Casey bye. Normally I would say come through the VFL, but the game being in Darwin and with the indigenous factor it might be the best option if he was the sub.

Enjoyed the first few episodes and then I found it started to drag and get boring. Let us know if you have a different view after say 7-8 episodes.

    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.
