fwiw, cal twomey believes that kalani white is 'leaning' towards joining the mfc rather than gc17

he also said that he expects him to be - at this very early stage of the year - outside the top 25 prospects in this year's draft crop

obviously very early days

    job security beats winning any day (joking😀 )

    Seriously though I think GCS are set at most positions for the time being based on what I saw on Saturday

    Where in the pecking order, and over the following 2-3 Y, would he be at GC$ vs MFC?

    Don't they also have a busload of academy picks to find room for this year too? Kalani might be low on their priorities.

    Yep. I reckon it would be 50/50 they could even take him at this stage given their key position depth.

    Much smarter that he chooses the Dees at this point given the ages of our key backs and rucks.

    Who will he be playing for this year? Interested to keep some tabs and see how he is tracking along.

    From what I heard a pretty standard game. Nothing flashy just solid.

    four, of which white is one

    at least two of which are regarded as possible top five picks, with the younger uwland brother a likely pick #1

    handy for some...

    The AFL want strong Queensland teams so they will love that.

    Will create opportunities of players potentially moving back to VIC…. Need to be ready

    Fair enough. Is he playing back still or moving to a forward/ruck role?

    Witts 32 , Moyle, Reid and Knobel.

    That I’m not sure about, assuming he played back but obviously it’s been said this year he wants to be put in the ruck and forward. We’ll get a better look come the allies game and if he cracks into the vfl side.

    I'm not as sold on Kalani as others, but if he comes to us I hope I'm completely surprised. Did watch him in last year's championships and was underwhelmed. However, he's a slightly built tall and will definitely take time.

    I hope we get him for cheap RTG. If the potential is there. You would know more than me. I’m going of what is said on DL

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
