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.

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
