The Marley Davey Thread

Does anyone have any info on him? Seen the info on Kalani White and that's exciting. Noah Yze seems like a late developer. Dazzle is usually good with this. Any info?

Will be turning 14 in January some time.

Still some water to go under the bridge, bur so far he's had a pretty good start to his small junior career. 

A best and fairest for Cairns under 12s plus a top 3 finish in the league vote.

He's also represented QLD under 12s school boys team which is usually a good indicator that the kid can already play at a young age.

He's certainly a watch this space in years to come.

Listen to the Jason Taylor interview.

Is Marley one of the twins? Or is he older than the twins?

 

[Demonland 72,230]

According to Jason Taylor on the Demonland Podcast Marley Davey, the son of Aaron Davey, is one future father/son that the club has their eye on. He will be moving to Melbourne from Cairns to go to school at Xavier and the Dees will start tracking him harder now. He is available to be drafted the year after Kilani White (2025 AFL Draft) which will be at the end of 2026 for the 2027 season.

[biggestred 5,108]

this is good. the Jiath boys have come through Xavier too, after moving up from gippsland. 

[djr 1,565]

As luck would have it, the father-son rules might be changed in 2025, potentially requiring clubs to forfeit first-round picks in lieu of point accumulation.

I'm ready for another Davey.

[640MD 3,383]

I did listen to the podcast and most promising thing I thought was his little snippet about Marley. That they were watching him and he is coming to school here . Was that correct anyway I was going to ask the question what is he, how is he, I know who is he,  any info really

 

so thanks

To flash before your eyes?

[HarpenDee 249]

The AFL will change the Father/Son points system so Kalani, Noah and Marley cost us 3 first rounders. 

Meanwhile pick 40 and 42 Nick Daicos will be collecting the Brownlow.

First day at school a week or so ago …

[Little Goffy 14,582]

Personally I don't like school blazers but in this case I am sure it is important practice for feeling comfortable in the silly-looking All-Australian ones.

Looks a bit more solidly built than his dad. How old now? Will he be available in time for the famous 2028 premiership?

And take your hands out of your pockets. Not only does it look slovenly, but it will damage your pockets.

(I'm only repeating what was said to me at around the same age more than half a century ago.)

Does he own a comb

Marley probably reads this site. Go easy with the humour... he may think it is representative of MFC supporters.

only boomers wear a belt (for a good reason; to keep my pants up)

I used to tie an onion to my belt.   It was the style at the time.

Of course they will be changed - unless there are some Geelong FS available.

[spirit of norm smith 16,478]

As long as he enjoys his footy.  No pressure on the kid.
