Iโ€™d bank on the FS being dead in the water by then.

Already on its last legs itโ€™ll only take one more top 5 prospect getting to a top 4 club to kill it.

academies yes definitely , fs no

I think he is considered a little bit position-less. Not quite a forward, not quite a back and only recently showing signs as a ruck.

I see that as a blank canvas to work with. But one club that I know of thinks he will take a fair bit of time and has average hands.

Iโ€™d be rapt to get him though. He can kick, elite athlete and apparently has a good head on his shoulders. His old man overcame what I would say, were not elite hands overhead, by jumping over blokes and taking chest marks. Kalani could do the same.

We can also expose him to the work habits and expertise of the greatest ruckman of the last decade.

Thereโ€™s no downside here.

Here, no downside.

I really hope young Kalani nominates the Dees. The red and blue blood is his veins. โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’™ Heโ€™s a quality youngster. But we would need to give him time to develop.

Suns already have Dylan Patterson and Beau Addinsall as more young midfielder stars to add in their academy intake as both are definitely 1st rounders.

Zeke Uwland is the best of them. Expected to be top 5.

Over the past 5 years maybe even decade, Melbourne have been exceptional at drafting our future stars. There's been a slight pattern in the Dees picks leaning towards more mids and even a few pickups for our defence. Kalani White, son of Jeff White, who is playing in the Gold Coast Suns academy does have the farther son opportunity to be taken by the Dees. He's 199 CM tall, agile and can take an amazing mark (shades of rookie Max Gawn). Also helps that Jeff has hinted to us that he'd love to see his kid in the colours he played for on social media.

Also mentions of Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves a wing/forward player has the same skill set to Caleb Windsor who could potentially be a massive pick up.

Just the 5 disposals for Kalani's game with the Allies against South Australia today.

Is Noah linked to us?

A perfect fit for the current match committee - he can start back, go OK, so be thrown forward and ruck until he goes well there then be thrown back again, or dropped.

His career could be ruined in a season or two.

Probably not. Noahโ€™s ship was seaworthy.

White is looking more like late draft pick or picked up in the rookie draft. Not tracking as a top 50 prospect.

Has been named to play for Casey tomorrow night as the 23rd player.

Forgive my ignorance but is there a sub at VFL level?

No sub rule in the VFL. I believe the 23rd spot usually goes to U18s players or players from local leagues. Essendon also have an NGA player named for them this weekend in Adam Sweid.

Sorry, but I have to take exception to that commentโ€ฆ it should read, the greatest ruckman of all time!!

White and Jackson sure would be nice to have on the list.

Be happy with White, Jackson is a day dream.

I have never seen White play but reports don't seem wonderful. We could be the only bidders.

Just the right plan

I wonder what number Kalani will be wearing. KW34 sounds great!

From the team sheets online it looks like he'll be sporting #50

At the pre-Christmas Saturday morning park run and sausage sizzle, he was signing as #34 Kal White> Funnily enough, when I said that's your dad's number, he quickly replied, "It's mine now"

A real athlete and a project player. Needs a fair bit of size which will come in the AFL system. Certainly a lot to work with.

I hope he selects the Dees.

We only have Gawn, TC and Verrall at 199cm plus so room for Kalani.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecastโ€”20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze โ€” expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kateโ€™s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwoodโ€™s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isnโ€™t a standard conceptโ€”itโ€™s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking. ย We filled our boots with percentage โ€” now a whopping 520.7% โ€” and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourneโ€™s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasnโ€™t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's ย six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his teamโ€™s unfulfilled potential rang true โ€ฆ well, almost.ย
