The Aaron Hall Thread

Featured Replies

Hall is one of a number of TSL players being head hunted by VFL club Werribee which has recently appointed former Demon midfield coach as their head coach for 2012 - Werribee hunts TSL top players.

"... Hall was the TSL Tigers leading goal-scorer with 34 and finished second in their best and fairest count."

Locals consider Hall would make a rookie selection in the AFL at best.

 

Good call - I was taken in big time by the Sibosado and Daw highlight reels.

On the other hand, there was a fair bit of hype around Tom Rockliff after he was passed over in the draft, but that was probably supported by his TAC Cup stats.

That was only because he led the TAC cup in goalkicking, playing at FF for a bloke his size.

He always had a knack for just getting the ball and doing something with it, even if he wasn't the fastest, strongest, most skilled or whatever. Just a footy player.

Casey Sibosado was delisted by the Dockers last week after a three year stint as a rookie. He did play 1 AFL game in round 24 of this year when the club was ravaged by injury and there was nobody left to select.

He was on Bennell...

But he does look lively and knows where the footy is. Would've been handy up forward.


What to do with a super quick guy who knows how to find the footy but might have doubts over his disposal. Put him up forward and watch him look the goods. Would have been a nice pick up, oh well.

 

It was a big miss to not pick up Hall in last years draft.

Both Hall and Omeara were outstanding and shone above GC's other high draft picks.

I remember last year discussing with my family that both priority picks were overs for the number 1 pick in the mini draft. Today I admit I was wrong, the kid will be a star and we should have thrown a player in to get the deal across the line.

I have to defer to pretty well everyone on junior talent, but, that said, this kid was super impressive last night IMO.

O'meara will also clearly be an elite player in due course - spoke well too when interviewed.

Pity they're not both wearing the red and the blue in 2012.


I get the feeling we will not get anything from GWS if Sheedy can help it.

Absolutely the stand out rookie player from any of the 3 sides last night. He ultimately got disposseded but that time he grabbed the ball at a ball up running through the pack at full pace had me drooling and wishing we had taken him. we so desperately need a player who can do that

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
