Surprised there wasn't a thread started on him already. Had a really strong finish to his year that has put him well and truly into top 5, if not top 3, calculations. Played a couple games for Casey in the year.

Possibly out of reach for us at pick 5 (perhaps 7 post GC and North FA compo), however we may still be able to make our way up the board for him if the club believes he's our man.

New highlights video up from afl.com

 

 

I’d rather him than Reid. Purely just my opinion based on what I’ve read / seen. 189cm good mark and classy around goals.

You would be pretty much the only person on the planet that thinks this way.  I haven't seen either live and watched limited highlights but Reid gives you his package of elite skills plus kicks goals  to boot. Ready made too to add to our mids list of stars etc. 

Would have to go higher in draft yo get either Thats the issue. I would be happy with 2 out of McKercher, Caddy or Watson. Suit our needs either way but still no Ruck backup. This is more a trade discussion not a draft need. 

 

From the highlights only, He looks like he’d be a few years off having an impact at AFL level. I’m not as big on him as some of the other projected top ten.

Yep, flags for all 3 of the AFL, AFLW, VFL. Then there's the last 3 years finishing H&A in the top 4. $h!thou$e culture if you ask me

@Bombay Airconditioning isn't the only person on the planet who rather take Duursma than Reid. I am another.

Is this young man any relation to the (Jamie?) Duursma who played for the Dees so many years ago?

Jamie is his uncle. I believe Zane’s dad, Dean, played under 19’s for the Dees.

I reckon that's who we want more than Reid.

That's my gut feel as well.

Targeting roos pick 3 with 6 and 11.

Dogs want Duursma i would say, how bout Whoreforn?

Edited by YesitwasaWin4theAges

I dunno. I don’t see him as top 10 let alone top 5 highlights there. I’m no expert and only go by what I see, but I wouldn’t be moving up the draft for 190cm 3rd tall. Its a brutal industry but its not what we need right now. Has he played midfield? Wing ? Any outside role?

I guess I just look at his older brother and think of the colossal [censored] show in 5 years time id he was to turn out the same. 

If the experts say next Nat Fyfe, then by all means go for it. It is such a different game at the next level. I would hate to be a scout.

Hawthorn keen on Duursma allegedly.

Twomey has mentioned both Watson and Sanders for the dogs.

Haven't come acroos a solid link for McKercher yet but he isn't expected to make it out of the top 5.

He is a beast, and is a Midfield/Forward.

Much like Petracca was in his early years, and he reminds me a lot of those type of players.

Have watched a few of his games now, very different to his brother, who I also like.

He will be the future of our midfield.

Disclaimer - I was filthy when we selected Oliver over Parrish, so my opinion means nothing 😀

Twomey reckons he has Nate Fyfe qualities. Big call! 

He'll fit it well at the Dees then. Fyfe is a shocking kick for goal.

Looks lively. Based on this footage he doesn't miss a single goal as well!!

I don’t think the behinds make the highlight reel 😂

 

I’ve been on Zane dursma all year 

so much going for him

fast, elite skills, great mark and big leap 

when he was playing at Casey there was a few highlights of him linking up down the wing with harmes and few others and he already looked better than them. Makes good and fast decisions. Reminds me a lot of Conor rozee

Agree with you mate. I think he'll be a miss.

  • 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.
