McDONALD'S SA U18 LOSE TO VIC METRO

What's Lovell's value? Imagine having Viney, Stretch, Lovett and Lovell back in our side...

Any further word about Lyon's son that decided he was going to give footy a crack after all?

damn good footballer (lovell), andrew, but 174cm will be a big knock, fairly or unfairly

Sweet, fourth round pick. Lock him in!

But didn't we establish that he is no relation to our Lovell?

Sweet, fourth round pick. Lock him in!

Div 2 is a long way off the top level, hard to judge him given the opposition he has played against. Sure the recruiters will have a good look at him..

Victoria Country Forward Josh Schache talks all things AFL draft on 3AW

But didn't we establish that he is no relation to our Lovell?

fcs earl, its fn tasmania, they're all related

I reckon if Gresham goes in the first round, then this year's draft is really weak.

I'm not enthused about him at all.

But didn't we establish that he is no relation to our Lovell?

AFL.com's eye-catcher's covered Lovell last weekend, Twomey mentioned that they were related.

.

Jaidyn Stephenson is one to watch . His old man was a gun and should of played league footy . Tall as his son is and a full foward in his day kicked 21 one day was quick had it all.

little bro, presumably?

hopefully vic metro's emerging youngsters are better than this year and next year - draft is looking thin in both 15 and 16.

Forward line?

He can literally play anywhere including in midfield where at 192cm he could be a sensation.

I feel we'll need another redhead

It's a pitty that Weideman is out with a fractured foot, would've been interesting to see how he went during the championships.

it may be a blessing, he'll slip a little. if we trade in a pick, from a tradeout, you never know ?

head soon?
