Can someone remind me why Moniz-Wakefield is category B? Is he from another sport? Born overseas? Something else?

I assumed he was Indigenous but a search says his eligible as his mother is from East Timor

3Some players simply wont make it but guys like McVee Bowey Rivers take that major step up almost immediately. McVee was one of our big success stories in '23.

Buckle up for a big list clean out this time next year. Ruthless business.

Why next year we have had 7 either delisted or retired this year? 

Are there many out of contract at the end of 2024?

Any one that is on contract now that was about 55/45 on form is already “on a list” held by Poita who demands that guys are only allowed 2 years to find their feet. Such is his over zealous nature we would never had Gawny after about 2 bad knees in!! 

No doubt Spargo Laurie Tmac BBB Schache and Joel Smith ( of late) are in that category and Hunter and Melky are all needing best ever or very good seasons to be considered to survive to 2025. 

 

AMW’s Category B classification?

Can eliminate the first possibility played his junior footy with Nightcliff FC in the NT AFL. Although he may have given rugby league a go for a time as a number of kids do in the top end. 

There is a sizable East Timorese community here in Darwin and Moniz fits the family name profile.

A mate coached him at Nightcliff in a premiership season. Praised him for his determination and football talent.

If he has the appropriate work ethic and opportunity with luck goes his way would love to see him get a guernsey. Has a serious hint of X factor but needs to be more consistent IMO.

Wow, 3 AFL great players on a school football coaching panel.

Unbelievable.

Yes, and there are a lot of schools who cannot afford proper facilities. The amount these blokes earn should be deducted from Govt Grants !!

  • 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.
