hard to read into that team. Finn emile-brennan made it last year and didn't get a look in and many players have made it or even All aus and not been drafted

The reigning premiers, the Sandringham Dragons, take on the Eastern Ranges in the Coates Talent League grand final at Ikon Park on Sunday at 11.15am. 

Players to look out for in the Dragons lineup are midfielder Ryley Sanders, key defender Ollie Murphy and rebounding halfback Archie Roberts - all are potential draft first rounders. Likewise with Ranges’ small forward Nick Watson and outside midfielder Caleb Windsor.

The Dragons’ midfielder Charlie Edwards is considered a late bolter for draft selection - ONLINE: 10 PLAYERS TO WATCH IN GRAND FINAL

 

The Dragons’ midfielder Charlie Edwards is considered a late bolter for draft selection. 
 

I think he will be a pick around the early 20s !!! I hope he’s in the Dees sights.

The Wizard opened proceedings In the second half with a goal from a free and then the Ranges goaled again and got to within a couple of points. But then the Dragons took over with Sanders and Lord in the midfield and captain Brown up forward and they kicked the last four goals of the term to lead at 3/4 time by 26 points.

Sandy are poised to go back to back and yes, I’m sold on Sanders. He’s cool, talented, can mark and kicks accurately.


For the Dragons:

Sanders showed so much class. How was Ryley Sanders run and carry out of the middle in the last. Two bounces. Handballs to Murphy Reid.  Goal. Sanders would be a great addition.  Top 5-6 draftee for sure. 

Will Brown. The skipper of the Dragons. Not sure of his aerobic ability but definitely a smart player. Goal goal sense. 

Just like Archie Roberts as well. He should be on JTs list. Skills like a lot of left footers.  Lovely goal to finish a very good day.  

Harvey Johnston looked smart and evasive.

Charlie Edwards. Quieter than recent but strong runner and likes to burst clear. Still 25-35 pick for me

EASTERN RANGES T Sruk C Moraes N Watson C Windsor R Weatherill S MacDonald

Dragons captain Will Brown was awarded best on ground for his performance in the game. 

For the Ranges: 

Nick Watson - quieter today but his ability to win the footy around the contest was clear.  Not sure he’s what the Dees need right now but he’s a talented youngster.

Caleb Windsor - pace and run and footy skills.  Another good day.  Love his defensive work as well and was rewarded with two frees from tackles.  Definitely think he’s in our thoughts if we end up keeping our existing 1st round “13” (ends up 16-17) pick. 

Tyson Sruk (rover) was outstanding today as he ran and ran all day against the talented Dragons Mids. 30+ possessions and willed the ranges into attack countless times.  Small mid and perhaps might end up a rookie chance somewhere.

How did Christian Moraes go? Kid looks a star and potential top 5 pick next year.

24 touches and a goal. Was good, agree that he should go high next year.

Agree.

Levi Ashcroft also will be a gift for the Lions. As an underage player, he is seriously good. He’s as good as his brother.

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
