    I wouldn’t get my hopes up too high with Noah. Didn’t stand out at school level with Caulfield Grammar, would be a romantic story to have him as a father / son but I think he will be another Kobe Farmer that is not quite good enough for AFL level. 

    Not to mention Brad Flower! We actually have not had anywhere near the success that other clubs have in this regard!

    & from what you’ve seen previously, is that the position he’s earmarked to play?

    Well, that's six more than Petty had in the VFL before coming in!

    No, but seriously, the kid is just doing the right thing by the club and staying under the radar.

    Or maybe it is loading?

    At the moment, young Yze is of a size just a little bit too short for a key position and probably not quite fast enough for a midfielder. He’s still young enough to grow and develop his skills and running ability so it’s fantastic that he’s in the elite system at a strong Coates Talent League club along with the benefit of being under the eye of both the Melbourne Football Club and his father which means he has a good chance of getting onto our club’s list if he puts in the work.

    Hopefully, he will get the opportunity once or twice this year to show his wares at Casey as Kynan Brown did last year.

    My memory is BP left the club early 2012 and went to Carlton. Todd came in and was calling the shots at trade time late 2012. He has to wear the Wines non selection. He knew how good Wines was and knew Toumpas as well. I thought the reason given as to why we went for Toumpas was that we didn’t need 2 in and under bulls. To be fair all the experts were a big wrap for Toumpas but we never saw why that was. 

    Touumpas was playing senior footy in SANFL, winning a premiership before he was drafted, I believe it was the media and the fans, constantly reminding him he's not as good as wines, the pressure got to the kid

    I believe he also had both hips operated on around the time he was drafted and that resulted in him losing a bit of speed.

    interesting that yze is relief rucking as quite an undersized option

    If he's doing similar work to JVR it might indicate competitiveness and a good leap, good traits to have coming into his draft year

    Listed at 190cm and turns 18 tomorrow. 

    I wonder if he’s gone one more growth spurt in him… 4 or 5 more cm would be perfect.

    haha I thought the same thing. Yze was more of a winger who could go forward.

    Our Adem was primarily a half-forward, rarely ever a wingman. 234 goals from 271 games

    Give him time to grow into his body and develop in the 2’s. Just look at Taj, he didn’t leap out as a contested beast in his draft year either, but he is developing very nicely at Casey and will be a player before too long imo.

    Taj has also added some 'in-close' skills with both hand and foot, and does move to receive these days around more central play. Developing nicely, a very strong prospect in the not-too-distant-future ...

    Started forward.
     

    Daniher moved him to half back.

    Then opposition coaches decided that he was too dangerous and he was moved up the ground again and rotated from deep forward to mid. 


    I think half forward would’ve been an ok description.

    Re Noah. I think he is a bit of a late developer. He wasn’t focused solely on footy for a while there. 
    The knock on him I heard was about athleticism and hardness. But that was 2 years ago. He may have matured since then. 
    Like all father-son prospects. I want him to come to us and be successful. But also not cost us much in terms of draft considerations.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
