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! ❤️💙

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.

  • 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 Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’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 isn’t a standard concept—it’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.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’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 wasn’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  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
