can’t we just coach our way out of this problem?  
 

Play with the play book before you play with the personnel 

they’re not elite disposers of the ball, but they’re not awful and they have been  instructed to kick it quickly to a contest.

 

Don't agree. Near impossible to go from average to elite kick

How much better would we look with someone like a Whitfield in our mid mix? Now they aren't a dime a dozen!

Which one is an elite kick going i50?

I'll give you the answer: none

We need a quick, mostly outside or out/in mid with elite vision and disposal going i50

McKercher or Sanders look most likely. Hopefully one is available with our first call out, pretty please

Run and class

Best chance for McKercher is if North go for Sanders early or we trade up.

Sanders isn’t the distributer by foot that you’re describing in your post. He’s neat when in space, but not elite by foot. If had that hurt factor with his kick, he probably would have been sitting in the top 3 or 4 in the pool.

Next generation of KPBs coming through?

Orlando Turner and Riak Andrews are rookie possibilities. More so Orlando than Riak brother of Mac. Orlando is a small and Riak is 190/192.

I love how McKercher tries to make something happen with each of his disposals. And my god he loves to run.

Something we're severely lacking big time.

I've loved him all along but accepted pretty early that we wouldn't have access to him.

He's not far behind Harley Reid imo.

Since the championships I've heard nothing in regards to Olando Turner. There's no vision or barely any write up.

I do know he's been all over the country playing this year but.

I think our only chance of getting Mckercher is if North want Sanders and are happy to trade back to get him. 
I wouldn’t rule it out as he seems a better prospect than Humphrey and we offered 3 first round for him last year. Two of which are currently pick 5&13.

 
Big issue with making a similar move for Mckercher might be the Tassie factor. If we trade up and pay overs to get him we are unlikely to get back what we invested should he return to Tas.

He is a similar type to Moniz-Wakefield who I reckon might even take Chandler's spot in the team going forward.

Have to keep Sanders in our mindset. Elite skills. Elite runner. Loves a goal. Has future star stamped on him. I’d be grabbing him if available   

Imv he plays like Jason Horne-Francis 

AFL Website bio

Another top prospect who sat out the Combine, Sanders did not test due to a hip issue. It will have no impact on his draft placing, having shown throughout the whole year his incredible consistency and production as a midfielder in the group. Sanders capped his season with 25 disposals and four clearances in Sandringham's Grand Final win over the Eastern Ranges, when he had some key moments as he always does. Sanders averaged 31 disposals at that level to go with his Larke Medal in the under-18 carnival in a complete campaign.

Would personally rather him over Curtin or Windsor with pick 6 - has 200+ gamer written all over him 

Would love Windsor to slide to 11 in that scenario but doesn’t seem likely unfortunately

If they're any good the AFL will 100% come up with a package to get them to kick start the Tasmanian team. Special "marketing" salary cap bonus.

It's pretty rare to have such high quality in the draft from Tamania. They'll be in the perfect age range. It's an irresistible prospect for the AFL.


Yeah, can’t remember too many in recent-ish years. Chayce Jones? Jesse Lonergan? Jackson Thurlow? Kade & Jake Kolodjashnij?

Mitch Robinson??

Only 3 years before Mitch Robinson 😉

How about Toby Nankervis, Mihocek, BBB, Jeremy Howe, Jimmy Webster, Liam Jones, Aaron Hall, Lachine Weller, Tarryn Thomas or Alex Pearce?

Sanders. Elite skills. Good pace. Decision making.  He’s got star quality !!  Hope he gets through to the Dees. 


Will have he best career of this draft crop. Not necessarily the highest peak performance, but best overall career. Couldn't be more rounded as a midfielder and leader very impressive youngster and I hope he winds up in red and blue.

  • 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.
