I always had a soft spot for Daniel Bell.  Had the worst peripheral vision ever, but I'll never forget his BOG game on Scott Welsh that day at the 'G.  He played a blinder!

Oliver will be the best of them I think. The numbers he's getting with 60% game time in his first year have been crazy at times, and then you add in his height, excellent decision making, calmness, skill (hand and foot) and aggression and you get the complete package for a modern midfielder. I'm surprised he doesn't get any love in the media, he will soon.

All 3 are amazing ball winners for kids. This preseason will be interesting to see which of them is able to do the work on their fitness and kicking and push towards being consistent performers. Brayshaw and Petracca are both very good forwards as well. Clarry isn't as natural forward but he seems to have a nose for a goal like his off the ground effort on the weekend.

He will be our Bont over the next 12-24 months.... The media will fall in love with the way he goes about his footy and he will impact games more and more as his tank grows...

Exciting times... 

My 3 in order on what I've seen...

1. Oliver

2. Petracca

3. Brayshaw

Although on what I saw on Saturday night, Brayshaw looked amazing at times... His tackling was ferocious when it was needed and his 2nd and 3rd efforts were fantastic!

Trac just looks like a beast and with a full pre-season under his belt could be anything...

But Oliver has an X factor about him that sends blood to a region of my body like not many red-headed earthlings have been able to in the past... :cool:

If they all reach their top potential I feel Trac will be the best of them. 

At the moment he seems to flash in and out of games, if he puts in 4 quarter performances he could cause some massive headaches for the opposition.

We're talking about Voss, Black, Ackermanis and Lappin here.  This group have the potential to be that good. 

Oliver is alot like Voss.

Dom Tyson reminds me of simon Black.

Brayshaw has a bit of NigeLappin without the booming kick.

Petracca is like Aka but more powerful.

Oliver = Voss (Michael, not his brother)

So we won't sign him up to coach 2030 then ?

I reckon Trac has the highest ceiling. If he can become a big accumulator, and spend more time in the middle, he can be anything.

 

I'm with you on this Jaded. Trac has the markings of a superstar.

I also think he has a bit of "left field" about him - the ability to do something that appears to be genius but he will make look everyday. Similar to Stevie J at times.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
