Fair enough. But given we drafted Woewodin who was not performing at anywhere near the level Kynan is, I would be shocked if we don’t draft him. 
I guess it’s good the club isn’t letting him rest on his laurels thinking he’s got a spot on the list sewn up. 

Taj in WAFL Colts: 22.7 disposals, 5.1 marks, 4.7 tackles

Smith in Coates league: 20.6 disposals, 3.6 marks, 4.6 tackles

Not sure about the output difference.

I’d expect Kynan to be on our list from what I saw in preseason but I wouldn’t be committing to what at this stage is an inconsistent smaller mid.

Another great performance by Kynan yesterday against Northern Knights.

Kynan had another 30 disposals and 4 tackles for the day being one of their best players on the ground.

 

Again mentioned in the best players (HS) on 3 June in their loss to Calder Cannons

Being a left hander and footer probably help differentiate him a bit.

Not named in Shifter Sheehan’s “Top 30 draft prospects of 2023” column…

Shifter isn't the doyen of drafting that he's made out to be in my view.

Even still, if he's truly a late 2nd/3rd round + prospect then it's a win for us as less draft capital is required. Provided JT is happy he has AFL qualities.

Wonder how Riak is tracking now that he's back playing?

A shifter is a tool isn't it?

For the last time, Jaded; yes, you’re old!

Jeez, I dunno. I don’t think he is that good. And the rumours around him are pretty out there. I wouldn’t touch him, no sir. Not in this universe. Nup.

What rumours or are you talking siht

What's his club again? Something in the South Yarra area?

Old Geelong Sporting Club which plays in South Yarra and is coached by Nathan Brown.

Junior clubs were Greythorn and then Blackburn which is one of the big clubs where lots of serious juniors gravitate.

Not sure what you mean?? Jack Darling never became much of a player and then turned up in South America running a drug fueled junta. Now he is doing 15-20 in a Florida super max.

I am so glad we went with LUCAS COOK WITH THAT PICK INSTEAD.

Very glad.

  • NON-MFC: Round 12

    Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
