Ellison is interesting.  Only 20, probably a little undersized to play as a KPF at AFL level, but could develop into a utility type maybe.  I suspect he'd need to work on his speed to make that fly.

Interesting watching this.  Casey is dominating, but I don't see anyone really knocking down the door to get into the senior side.  Probably VandenBerg and Melksham the closest. 

If Baker could kick he could be anything. Vandenberg, Melksham and Jetta all look like AFL players but this game doesn't put them in the picture for a recall. Weid looks good, but struggles to transfer it to the AFL.

Bowey and Declase look like a couple to keep our eye on.

Sparrow, Chandler, Bedford all look ok but nothing outstanding.

My eldest son almost played for the Boort 2nds - for a bit of kick and giggle. Your observation is astonishgly accurate.

Hard to see those two getting another contract sadly.  I think they've been well and truly left behind.

Kicked 6 !!! Probably needs more pace and agility but had a great game.

Didn't see the first 3/4 but commentators saying Bradtke beat Buzza a former AFL player. Bradtke playing in defence last few weeks.

Just got to that on the stream.  Awesome play from Baker.  If only he could do that more often we'd see him in the seniors every week.

I'd be very surprised if Bedford didn't get a contract.

Yes I’d keep Baker and try to build his confidence to use his pace more.  Certainly impressed when uses his pace to break into space and kick long.

Bradtke surprised me - thought he did a pretty good job for most of the game, including some nice grabs. The backline in general was very solid. Bowey excellent first half, bit quieter in the second half. Joel Smith also very pleasing with his marking, defensive work and his kicking (!!!).

Didn’t I hear one of the commentators last week say that Bedford is probably the number one small forward in the VFL? If that’s true, then I would expect them to persevere with him for a bit longer.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 19th February 2025

    Demonlander The Analyser was the sole Trackwatcher out at Casey Fields today to bring you the following observations from this mornings preseason training session. Training  was at Casey today. It consisted of a match simulation for one half  and then a free choice activity time. Activities included kicking for goal,  aerial , contest work etc. I noticed the following players not in match simulation Jack Viney  running laps and looks fine for round one . I think Kolt looks like he’s im

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
