Reads happy to go to WC in Perth.  Wonder about Western Sydney?

He is a gun but unless we find a way to trade up to a pick in the top 3, then he will not be available.  I have an inkling once we receive the Jackson picks that we will have a crack at getting WC’s pick 2.  Just an opinion. 

He could fall, I think if picks in the top 3 to 6 don’t change and with West Coast the main ones looking for a taller forward he may just be a surprise who falls

1 Father son Ashcroft

2. North - I think they’ll go the big mid in Tsatas

3. GWS - mids needed for those leaving so I expect Wardlaw (who’s uncle is a Dees fanatic) to go

4. West Coast - IMO they will take Cardman based on what I’m hearing 

5. Essendon- tall defender or mid IMO- Clark

I don’t expect Sheezel to fall any further than this, Crows will give up their first for Rankin so if we want him pick 6 or 7 at worst is needed

I reckon still a good chance North or GWS go Cadman - both with new coaches - this is when you can afford to take a big man that will eventually become a focal point.

Wardlaw was meant to be rated almost as highly as Ashcroft but keeps pinging hamstrings.  So comes down to how much a club believes they can manage the injury.  Potentially a Chris Judd type scenario.

Surely Essendon will take Sheezel if he's still there (I think he'll go in the first 4)

I don’t see the Bombers taking him considering they have Perkins, Stringer on their list and likely to get Davey FS

You’d be mad to make draft decisions due to the presence of Stringer. Perkins and Sheezel both end up as mids as much as forwards, and they move Davey around too. I wouldn’t be worried about that combination

He’d become the first GWS player to live in Western Sydney if he did. Players leave GWS for generic go home factor, cash and opportunity. Sydney (either club) is still the best city to be an AFL player if you have a good career

What's that based on?

Sorry I should’ve said in my personal opinion. Take out factors like team success, crowds, post footy media careers and family and go  by what the cities have to offer - anonymity, climate, activities, beaches - I’ll take Sydney any day. As long as you can afford the $6 lattes.

Essendons midfield lacks a hard at it big bodied player and has for a while. There defence lacks talls. That’s why I have the opinion I do

He is definitely a top 5 talent Harry Sheezel.

Would have to be given the nickname Cheezel too! 😁

North appears to have set their sights on Harry Sheezel - a freak forward who ticks all the boxes. This is why

A fair appraisal of this top prospect but if you knew Harry, you wouldn’t use the word ‘obsessed’. The correct word is ‘focused’ - his head is on his shoulders and for the last 4 or 5 years he’s worked hard to get where he is now. I think he’ll be happy to stay in Melbourne as well. 


Sheezel is definitely the classiest player in the draft pool.  He’s creativity and skill make him effective in the midfield and in the forward50.  He’ll probably to the Bombers at pick 4.

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
