I will be keeping a close eye on Kielty, Petty, Spargo, Maynard, Chandler and Jordan.

The biggest attraction of this game will be finding Goodwin in the crowd and giving him a spray up close.

Can you keep a close eye on Oskar Baker too please - more likely to crack a game before any of the last 3 you mention IMO

 

thx

Kielty-might make it

Petty-too skinny and too raw

Spargo-no pace and can't find the goals

Maynard-vanilla with no pace

Chandler-likely prospect

Jordan-dud

You noticed it too, WWSW? I really like the line of attack and that backline is the best selection of the year.

Petty I think can make it in time - but probably needs exactly that - time. It's a bit weird though that some people are happy to let Weideman learn to be a footballer taking space up in the ones but not Petty who in my mind would most likely contribute just as much

Bit harsh on Spargo - he does need to build an engine and play midfield rather than undersized small forward  

Chandler I have not seen so can't comment

Concur on the others

For a pick in the 30s he is very underwhelming so far

Can the mods get rid of these school kids like Elegt who continue to berate and spew negative [censored] on every single thread about the same [censored] topic. It is tiresome reading through every thread and seeing that [censored] constant negative drivel.

Go for it, but make sure your standing right next to him when you do so he can see the fear in your eyes as you mumble away

There's a thing called freedom of speech. I expressed my opinion on lack of depth, if you don't like it scroll past

He's next on my ignore list.  Happy for people to have differing views when they take a few minutes to present it in a constructive manner.  This bloke just badgers you like a five year old.  Not worth your time.

So Master* Elegt 

You have seen a lot of Jordan up close over a long period to come to this opinion I presume 

* presuming you are male but perhaps you are from Tasmania so haven’t yet had an opportunity to decide

Watched tac cup gf, JLT 1 and vfl game vs AIS and he was underwhelming in all 3. Seems to lack the defensive nous I'd expect from a second round pick. I hope I'm proven wrong and it may be a premature decsion to write him off after three games but he just does not seem like the type of player we needed in last year's draft.

So he is a dud ( offensive term at the worst of times) but for a bottom aged first year player I just cannot respect anyone using such terminology 

PS I too hope you are very wrong

@KC from Casey where is Mykelti Lefau at? I thought with our lack of tall forward options he would be a regular this year. Is he a chance to get a look by AFL clubs this year?

Petty. Jordan. Sparrow are the ones to watch.  They should become good players. 

Chandler is a boy but cheeky smart fwd pocket. Unlikely to make it but fun to watch. 

Bedford is the wildcard. Could be the answer as the elusive magical forward pocket type  I like his pace.

Maynard should be given a go.  I like him above ANB. We need to see if he’s up to the AFL tempo.  If not, then he must be delisted  

Spargo should be traded. He has nothing special.  At 173 cms, he needs much more pace and strength over the footy.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
