Do you know much about Logan Morris from Vic Metro, he is a friend of one of grandsons and was coached by my son in law in his under16 years and last year at under 18's?

He is a very exciting talent.  A high-leaping key forward with a lot of X-factor and a certainty to be drafted on footballing ability/pertformance.

Samuel Van rooyan? Is he Jacobs brother?

 

Yeah

Younger brother would have copped a fair bit of punishment over the journey from big brother.

Would have to be a competitive beast to survive treatment from JVR.

They have a younger brother Ben, who is the best of the 3

Perhaps by us, we would have a selection around where he could be taken. Thanks for the info.

Jordan Croft looking like a very good key fwd prospect for the Dogs so far for Metro. Kynan Brown busy early.

Our NGA prospect Orlando Turner is an emergency for the Allies. Hopefully he gets a gig in one of the games.

He played in the first one, did a few good things.

Have you seen Ben play?

I’d love for us to pick Sam VR. Imagine the 2 of them shredding the opposition together

Don’t think he’s playing. Did he play earlier?

Yes when he was about 12, he played up a year as a fill in against my youngest boy and was outstanding. Unfortunately he’s out for the entire season this year with stress fractures in the back

Young guns and father-sons fire at U18 Championships

 

Interesting to see how the two young guns from Tassie in the draft. Both Ryley Sanders and Coby Mckercher are first round quality. Both are exactly the type of players we would love to add to our list.  But clubs may have a rethink given the AFL Tassie push means that in 3-4 years they could just walk to the Tassie team with minimal compensation.

There’s only one game on in the national championships - we see Vic Country play their first game on Sunday and it’s against South Australia who were disappointing last week.

Here are two articles worth reading -

2023 Vic Country Under 18 squad announced

PREVIEW | 2023 AFL U18s: Vic Country vs. South Australia

There are some interesting names in that VC squad including Harley Reid, Zane Duursma, Darcy Wilson, Cooper Simpson and Melbourne NGA prospect Riak Andrew.

The game will be televised live on Foxtel.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
