    I don't see much of Pendelbury in Brayshaw at all to be honest. I think he is going to be a great player but I can't see the similarities at all

    Yeah, I love Brayshaw, but I see Tyson as more a Pendlebury clone.

    Brayshaw is like a Fyfe/Pendles/Ablett/Dangerwood/Judd clone but with like heappps more upside and way betterer.

    Frankly I think he's underrated.

    Met him briefly at the Casey Community Camp when I was getting autographs for my daughter - got that touch of Brayshaw smartar$e about him which I like!

    Much taller in person than I thought too he's not that much shorter than Hogan, should be in for a great year.

     

    I really hope not.

    I'm a big fan of confidence but despise arrogant smartar$es - like his uncle.

    Although from I've seen he seems like a nice young man and I guess if he plays great football for us it doesn't matter too much.

    He's seemed a great kid and certainly doesn't lack confidence put it that way! Jesse on the other hand is really shy and quiet...of course I am basing all this on 2 minute conversations and I'm sure they are well versed on being on their best behavior in front of fans.

    And how about his decision making, positioning and kicking to advantage?  I like them even more.

    Yes, and his evasion, measured celebration and onfield thought processes, sick

    I'm a doubter...

    Good player but until he can hit a short kick target under 30m he'll never be a great.

    The amount of times he over / under kicks short passes for a player who is clearly so skilled is infuriating.

    Eliminate those basic mistakes and he'll become a great as he knows where to run and how to get it.

    He only averages around 14 disposals a game, will need to increase this significantly in 2017.

    Again, I don't know what type of player he is because he isn't a inside player and his skills aren't good enough to be an outside player.

    so you have doubts about him too, i take it clint?

    i want him to be great...but i have my doubts...

    I just can't work him out, his best is very good but like I said I can't put my finger on the type of player that he is.

    Gus, first two years (one with concussion) I thinks his trajectory will be far steeper than it has been for 2017-2019  -and  for me,  he reminds me of Darren Jarman with inside/outside game -positioning and penetration  - Post script - DJ's stats wise (K 13.5, HB 5.5 and G 1.6 per game)

    I heart both his 2 sidedness and pumpkin headedness.

    He has a strong frame which is fortunate as it needs to support a bulbous cranium.

    He will be a serious player

    Yeah, he has played a lot on the flank under Roos though...

    He doesn't play a huge amount of midfield minutes and in the games where he has his possession counter rises quite a bit, I think that stuff will come in time but I doubt the coaches would be worried about possession numbers for him at this stage

    As we've seen with Bontempelli, you don't need to get it even 25 times to be best on ground or exert great influence.

    The thing that's always excited me about Gus is his ability to hurt the opposition with almost every touch. Almost all of his long kicks set up goals and his ability to kick on either side of his body is an absolute weapon.

    20 Brayshaw disposals are the equivalent of 35 Viney disposals and that's nothing against Jack. He's just not as dangerous with the ball in hand. Not many players are. But Gus seems to have an acute game sense and importantly an ability to execute. 

    Having said all this, I'd agree he needs to up his possession count. Given his interrupted second year, I'd be happy if he averaged around 20 disposals for 2017. That'll position him nicely for 2018 and the Melbourne explosion, when these guys have played 50+ games together.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
