Tom Morris reporting he will nominate the dees. Is more opportunity with us, the Suns have a bunch of young high pick tall key position players.

I think the club needs to be commended on the way they have supported Kalani and make him feel comfortable.

Dees or Suns? Father-son prospect closing in on huge draf...

“He's seen as a great prospect.”

Morris also said that most judges think he’ll fall somewhere between 20-40

So he’s not going to be ‘free’ per se, but will need some points matching

I rate White in the late 40s in this draft. He has upside but there is still plenty of talent in this draft that should get picked before White. Let’s hope he lasts through to at least the 3rd round or after.

This year the points system for matching father/son and academy picks has been changed and the relevant discount of points to be used has dropped from 20% to 10%. Whilst that makes it more expensive for us to use points to match a Kalani bid - those changes apply in spades to the Gold Coast, so perhaps they could not have fitted Kalani into their plans, given their other targets.


KW is interesting. I'm very hopeful we get him and it seems like a fait accompli at this point, but in a lot of the Power Rankings products across various bodies, he doesn't seem to even fall within the Top 50; so to see him mooted as falling potentially in the 20 - 40 band is surprising. I haven't watched really anything from the state leagues nor the various talent leagues, so this is potentially somewhat of a naïve view and I'm happy to take the advice of more seasoned posters on this though. Also, given my interpretation is that if he is falling in the 20 - 40 range includes the dearth of current Academy picks and F/S selections (outside of KW), it really seems his value would inflated.

Clever by dees, getting Kalani to tank this year so we get him for cheap 😉

reckon at 3/4 time of his first vfl he got given permission to go hard?

that quarter alone was super, super encouraging for his future

just enough to make sure we knew what we were getting.

Pick 20 is effectively first round. Even 40 is bottom second

I'd be amazed if a "project player" goes higher than third round unless some club wants to push us away from our second round choice so that they can get that player in the third round.

My worry is that we dilute our second round choice with swaps to lesser picks in fear that someone will take him second round.

We always seem to overpay one way or the other

Nah, don't rate him at all. Depth for Casey

😉

Just saw the youtube short with Tim lamb, Kalani and his dad.

I reckon he's gonna be a serious player and to learn from the greatest ruckman the game has ever seen will only propel him to greater heights.

Excellent News!!

Excellent, just excellent. For all concerned


Well I love it! ❤️💙

Typo

I said bookmark it multiple times. Was surely never in doubt.

Welcome, Kalani. 🎉🙏👏

Is Kalani the right guy? just getting in early

Well...

He's definitely the White guy.....

You're doing it all wrong.

How about:

Just one more bit of evidence that i was right all along - Goodwin was never the right guy.

No chance White jnr signs with us if Goodwin was still coach.

    It's Game Day or has everyone given up. Maybe it is because a prime time Friday game is so rare ... double checks today is Friday ... Come on DL'ers support the team one last time for the year!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.
