The Kalani White Thread

Certainly a chip off the old block! Some of those comparisons are eerily similar. It is early days though.

Although, out of curiosity, when did Demonland start monitoring Jack Viney or Billy Stretch?

I think there was a photo of Billy as a 14 year old playing representative footy in SA.  I'm not sure on Jack, but probably a similar age. 

It would be amazing if this kid came on to be the athlete his Dad was.  He'd be a very handy forward with that height and leap.

Jeff White just posted these pics of his son who is turning 9 this year. 

What do you guys think

Great picks.

That they came from Jeff's wife and he posted this message:  My wife just sent me these of Kalani and I, what do you think Dees fans wtC18q3lcvA.pngwtC18q3lcvA.pngwould suggest that if the kid wants an AFL career they want him to be a Demon!! 

Yes, another F/S on the way!!

I just read the comments below White's pics - some extracts to warm the heart of an ardent Dee's supporter:

JW: I asked him what number he would wear and he said 34 haha

Robbo:  Son of a gun;  JW: Love right there bro

Fan: Sign him up now Dees, can't wait to see Jeff's 3 boys playing for the Dee's.

Fan: Good boy jeffy, he'll have a premiership medal, something you deserve

Great banter!

Let's hope Kalani (and his brothers) choose AFL!

"Kalani"?

Anyone want to forecast other first names in that 2024 premiership team (apart from the Jesse/Jack/Angus/Christian(s)/etc senior leadership)?

How old are the Davey boys?  Come to think of it, didn't Bruce and Green have a couple of lads in the same bracket? 

Just looked this up. 

Aaron has three boys.  Marley (2010) and twins Archie and Isaac (2012)

Green has two.  Oliver (unsure) and Wilba (2012?).

Bruce has one, Ben.  Not sure when he was born. 

Either way, it's going to be a while before we are looking at any of these lads joining the side, but we can hope right?  Sometime around 2028-2030, assuming the rule still exists, we may have access to some pretty good talent.

Wilbur Green is the elder of the two I think - my son and he are in the same AusKick, and my boy is in the year below, and he's six.

Has skills, but not as much as Buckley or Hird's kids, who look natural footballers.

But they pale in comparison to Wanganeen's boy, who will be a star for Port in a couple of years. Freaking amazing talent.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
