Really surprised Blake Drury was overlooked.

Agree Dazzle. Although short he is strongly built, clean with the ball and makes good decisions. He is also a quality leader that is a highly competitive type. Played as a mid that went forward for Caulfield Grammar. The one that’s got me surprised though is  another Caulfield boy inMitch Szybkowski. I thought we may have a nibble as he trained with us and is a very Melbourne type player and did some training with us pre season. For rookies a developing ruck but we have lost a bit of foot speed over the trade period so if we can find someone that will provide a bit of outside run with x factor then I think we will have a balanced list.

I'm pretty sure Ellison nominated for the National Draft a few years ago and wasn't picked. Therefore, we or any club could have signed him at any time and can do so after this Draft as part of the sp

Calling @ManDee - any local knowledge you can provide re this young man?

Sorry, no info. Didn't get to any footy this year too busy. GVFL is a good standard as is APS. He looks interesting, I like the Jakovich comparison, we should be so lucky!

Talent and needs fulfilled.  Certainly put in place the succession planning across ruck, key forward and key defence with youngsters Verrell, Jefferson and Adams.  I think Sestan was just that wildcard who was too good to pass up.  Raw ability and different pathway than the standard NAB League.  Like to see more Mids with pace next year in the draft with our picks.  Two 1st rounders should get JT a nice bounty once again. JT 🥇

Agree Normie, best available mid next year with Freo's top 5 pick

    WIZARD333'S TRAINING REPORT I went down and it was locked out for first hour but could see through fence then allowed in. Max Gawn ran laps — it looks like a 3 to 4 week injury. Andy Moniz-Wakefield ran laps. Blake Howes was taken off late as was on restricted minutes. Adam Tomlinson loudest on track and a leader - surprised me but won't be in best 25. Jake Lever on bike and walking up n down stairs, yelling out as he does. Melky copped a niggle so ran laps but

    TOUGH KENT'S TRAINING REPORT I journeyed out to Casey today and was fortunate enough to watch two quarters of match simulation. Here is a brief rundown of random occurrences/thoughts. First of all, there was no Jake Lever (ankle) or Joel Smith involved. AMW is still in rehab and was running strongly. It was Blue (Probables) v Red (Possibles) JvR was in blue. Ben Brown, T-Mac, Hibbo and Tom Sparrow were in red. Gus Brayshaw started at half back for blue and stayed there all game.

Williams yelling out to players to get their hands off hips during drills. Gus looks fine to me. Absolutely., first two mins of match sim and his kicking is exquisite on both sides. He’s moving incredibly well.  Some observations from a match sim drill that lasted about 15-20 mins. The purpose se
