The Kalani White Thread

[Ethan Tremblay 30,966]

I’m still not over Kalani’s death at the end of Game of Thrones. Could ride a dragon.

My understanding is it's limited to 2 only if they make finals. Otherwise they can match all 3.

I believe I heard that on the Gettable podcast.

You are right.  I forgot the finals part.

Thanks

Idle fantasy I know, but imagine Jeff in today's team, he was such a gun, and this isn't a knock on Brodie, but he could kick a goal or two. If Kalani has the heart of his old man we'll be going very well.

Kalani White is now 197cm and taller than Jeff. He achieved All Australian hours at Under 16 level at this year’s national carnival and now apparently, a premiership with his local team.

Wonderful stuff!

Congratulations to Kalani.

Jeff looks an extremely proud Father! 😊

it will be nice when he starts growing "outwards" instead of up.

Let's retire number 34 asap and keep it for Kalani. Deakyn Smith has it now but he could be delisted/offered another number.

And people think he won't nominate under F/S. Laughable!

We can change this thread to "Welcome to Demonland Kalani White"

197cm at 16yo. Probably stops growing now but we might get lucky and see him get to 200cm.

Kalani, Kolstryn & Kysiah will be a formidable force.

The KKK have always been a force of sorts.

Hey Jaded, couldn’t you find a better giff than this?That is one face I’d just love to belt.

[Melonmonster 124]

Is he purely ruck or does he play forward too?

According to Jason Taylor on the Demonland Podcast he was tried up Forward and in Defence (in addition to the Ruck) during the Under 16 National comp.

I hate him too. But when you want a stupid smug face his always nails the vibe

Not to mention Kyah Faris-White, the four K's.

Well we previously had a heap of jacks on the list ($cully, watts, trengove, grimes, Fitzpatrick) so its about time we moved onto the next letter of the alphabet

Kalani jumping all over Luke Jackson in the future would be nice thank you. Just another reminder of Freo losing Jeff White

So I just wounder how important the seemingly good state of the keeping the past players engauged has been to this?

From what I understand Rod Ginter and Paul Hopgood? have been very active and really revitalized that group.  Also woundering if family are invited to the events and if not, would that be a good idea?

JT obviously keeping a keen eye on the lad.  Does the quality and potential of Kalani partly explain why we haven't recruited more developing ruck depth at the recent draft and trade period?

If he's anywhere near as good as his old man, he could be a genuine ruck replacement for Max not too long after I'd expect Max to be in a 'retirement window'

I do fret a bit though and just hope we don't get dudded like we did with Mac Andrew, with a change to accademey and father son rules that makes it difficult or impossible for us to recruit Kalani.

The first bloke you named has the same first name as Fullarton and Hawkins and isn’t a Jack, while there is a Jack who played with them, called Viney.
