These poor kids that get drafted early, so much expectation. Someone drafted in the 50s or 60s might have the same ability has Parish. If he doesn't make it, then nobody really cares, at least he had a go, nobody was expecting anything anyway. If Parish turned out to be average he would be swarmed with critic media, haters and a reputation for being a draft bust

    Anyone who is small and slow gets the Sam Mitchell tag.

    Sam is a freak and while he succeeded, hundreds with Sam's physique have failed.

    Red flags everywhere.

    If you have a look at this kids quick decision making and ball use, you get the Mitchell comparison.

    ...but yes Mitchell is a freak and it would be asking a lot of anyone to come up to his standard.

    Seems like a nice Fellow, but he reminded me far too much of Tom Scully

    Big sigh :huh: glad we picked Oliver!

    After much thought, if the club think Weiderman is fit enough then its Parish at 3 and Weiderman at 7 if not then its Parish and Oliver for mine!

    And would be pretty happy with those picks!

    To be fair, he wasn't the only one. I changed my mind almost daily this draft...as it seems did many.

    I don't see you bagging him and comparing him to Spud Scully though. After wanting him 5 minutes ago.

    Round 2 vs Essenscum at the G

    Oliver the Bull to crush little Darcy like an ant

    I actually feel bad for Parish and Francis and the other Essendon draftees. Do your 2 years and get out boys before they start trying to inject you with garbage

    That's exactly why we picked Oliver ahead of Parish.

    Roos wants a top 10 mid to play round 1 and match it with the best. i.e Brayshaw

    At 74 kg Parish will be bowled over next year

    That's true, but the trade off even if they are average they usually get a second chance.

    Along with longer contracts the AFLPA should push for a greater pay scale for the early round picks.

    If they are good they get it though, play 22 games and you go close to earning 200k due to all the match payments. Play no games and you get 70k or whatever it is.

    He plays for someone else. Move on

    Couldn't agree more but I am sure, depending on how things pan out, there will be quite a few here just waiting for an opportunity to say "told you so".

    Parish could be an A+ player, but I know Oliver will be an A grade player.

    I was all for Parish....he might become anything...who knows..

    Oliver WILL become a very good player...AM happy enough.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
