There is obviously an issue there because he is one of the most talented footballers you will see.

He flattened Viney in one of his first few games.

I'd take him with a nothing pick and try and bring him into our culture

I'd take him purely if he deletes his cringe Tik Tok account.

We had a keen interest in medium defenders at the draft last year (ended up with the key fwd in JvR), Stack could fill an absolute need as a speedy defender.

Low cost mitigates risk with potentially high return. I hope we’d still back ourselves in to provide a supportive environment (we clearly feel we can in taking on Hunter).

 

Sydney Stack certainly has a lot of talent.

As can be seen from this highlights video:

I would be open to putting him on the rookie list perhaps? 🤔

What's cringe about it? Genuine question as Tik Tok is out of my age demographic.

Cringe TikTok account is a tautology.

Nice tautology!


Talented player could wrecker work with him,  I’d get him training to prove he wants it and make your decision based on your observations 

He should focus on the footy cos he won't make it as a tiktok influencer. 

I vaguely remember Hardwick saying that one of the reasons Stack wasn’t getting a game was because they could only have so many ‘unstructured’ players in the team (Bolton, Martin, Rioli etc). I wonder how that would go with our highly structured approach?

On paper he seems to fill a hole in our list, talented, hard running quick defender with x-factor. No idea about his personal issues but worth a look? Especially for basically nothing.

I watched him play in the top end and nobody could hold the ball but he just had it on a string.

He is a massive talent

One buyer beware recruit per season.

Is ‘buyer beware recruit’ and ‘DH’ one and the same?

And speaking of ‘DH’ I gather our policy on not recruiting them is now null and void?

Stack is one player who could be very good or a bust but he needs to get his head straight first and foremost

In all seriousness he's one player I'd be happily take a risk on.

Kind of player that could easily become a Tyson Stengle like recruit with fresh environment and good solid father figures in Mark Williams and Matthew Whelan.

One player I've always been impressed with and his 2019 year was very impressive for a first year.

 

If he was a KPF then maybe but we don't need to be taking a punt on defenders with behavioural issues

Trying not to use the DH term but we do need to be wary of taking on too many players with baggage 

Love his talent, but if Richmond have given up on him I wouldn't think we'd bother. These comments from Xavier Clarke just days after the season finished make me a bit suss on Stack's prospects of turning it around.

“I think we’ll give him another chance at this stage from my understanding,” Clarke told SEN Fridays at the Top End.
“Hopefully if we do, he takes it with both hands and we see the Sydney Stack that we love to see.”

“We all know ‘Stacky’ is highly talented and he’s still figuring out what it takes to be an elite AFL player, that’s the reality,” he said.
“His challenge is now, this time of the year, what he is doing away from the football club.

What next for Sydney Stack? Xavier Clarke on the future of young Tigers talent

He’ll goto Geelong and become Stengles partner i crime. You all know it!

Partner in crime indeed. They'll be hitting the town together

If i was Geelong i'd be keeping Stack well away from Stengle

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
