Your surprise packet for 2016

Probably one who popped up last year and surprised with his sudden impact was Aaron Vandenberg. With his limited pre season due to his recovery from a shoulder reconstruction I certainly didn't expect him to come and make an impact straight away.

so for me I am going to go for a bit of a Smokey and say Mitch White will be my surprise packet for 2016. I know he is on the rookie list but don't be surprised if a spot opens up for him if he has a good summer on the track.

Didn't look out of place at all in fact he already looked like he had already played 50 games. Big body 188cm 88kg half back who is a fantastic kick of the footy and could potentially push up onto a wing.

Someone like him could really make us a better side off half back with the sling shot from a half back so I am hoping he has a big summer and he shows us what an important player he will be for the future.

    Kent, reckon he is going to be a gun.

    I wouldn't classify him as a surprise packet to be honest. We have already seen what his best footy could be just hasn't had a good run with injury.

    Completely agree about White, I think he will play at least 15 games if fit.

    Olisik. I predict consistent opinions in 2016 from him.

    Funny because he was my other option. With all the scary coincidence career path similar to his brother he will probably play 20 games next year..

    Frost is a man mountain who will stop the gorillas from scoring goals once he it fully fit.

    &

    CP5 will win 2016 rising star and show why we picked him at 2, the injured 2015 has given him time to work on fitness and developing his game.

    Kent,though the as the cliche goes "big preseason" plus the damage he could do with his left foot....no ceiling for a player like this.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
