Small forward standing at 177cm, kicked a bag of 7.2 in the TAC Cup Grand Final. Kicked over 50 in the TAC cup season. Realistically, looking to go somewhere between 30-50. Jason Taylor has said we are looking for small forwards in the draft. Could be the small forward we need?

    I watched the TAC Cup grand final and he was unbelievable. Did some seriously freakish things.

    Would not be disappointed to see him in the red and blue next year and beyond.

    I think in this draft kicking 7 in the TAC grand final and having good athletic ability won't get passed pick 30. Maybe even top 20.

    Not sure about the name but the guy can play.

    Anyone have info on what his defensive pressure is like? If that's up to scratch he'd be a super pick up. If we have a high enough pick....

    Not sure regarding defensive pressure. He has freakish talent however.

    I was listening to trade radio and a few brought up his name saying he might slide. If we can hold a pick somewhere between 25-35 I think that’d be enough.

    Interesting player. 

    A pure footballer.   I don't  think he possesses great speed or endurance but gets it and uses it. 

    Slippery and agile but I don't see him as the new breed of small forward.  Clubs will be wondering about what role he will play moving forward.

    I wonder if he makes the transition into the midfield like a Sidebottom or Rockliff?

    There's a bit of boom or bust about him.  You could get a Maric you could get a Rockliff

    Due to the limitations of this bloke in terms of his testing, huge chances he will slide. And if he does, expect us to nominate him with our first pick.

    Watch this space.

    U can't be impressed with kids kicking goals at TAC games, they have zone ing rule the forward line is more open,  Blake Hardwick kicked 56 goals in a TAC Cup, he does not even play in the forward 50 for the hawks, so u can't even compare it at AFL level.

    Bump. Slid to pick 57 as I predicted. Would kill for a small forward like Miers right now. ?

    I was an advocate for drafting him. He looks decent. Solid role player, no fuss. Has the right attributes to make a decent career as a small forward. He’s just what we need and unfortunately we missed him. Now we move on and hope Bedford etc come on and fill that role.

    Sadly your prediction is only half right.

    Another one missed. Add Charlie Constable. 

    Miers was predicted as a 20-30 draftee. Went # 57

    Constable was predicted as a 15-20 draftee. Went # 36. 

    Hardly a surprise that both are very good players.

    The way we've been playing the first 2 games the kid would have been lucky to get a touch with us.

    He's no superstar yet, may end up a handy player but he's on the end of some pretty good work at the moment with the Cats flying....

    Would kill for a Miers type in our fwd 50 right now - Although I do blv Jeffy will be I’m for a cracker year from next week onward

    Yet we take Spargo with a top 30 pick, a slow midget with no tricks. Not saying Miers is the answer to all our problems, but there have been some bizarre selections over the past couple of drafts.

    Lucky he kicked a few because he burnt his teammates a couple of times who were in a better position than himself. Seems like a selfish turd who could do with a good haircut and a bath.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
