    Why not, you have 4 NGA academy's that have priority access to every player in their respective states.  They actually speed a lot of time developing the kids in an elite environment.

    Because the side last year was elite even without the academy players. The Tassie boys last year were exceptional with two A graders for that level. Jed Walter’s is not the sort of player who comes along often that’s why I said it

    Thanks, I think they will still be strong and continue to be strong on the back of the northern state NGAs.

    Love that White is named, and kind of love that Mentha hasn't been?

    He wasn’t on the field for the first half. St least I couldn’t see him! I didn’t watch the 3rd but seems like he came on.

    He’s a player.  Will debut early next year.  Another GC17 Gift from the AFL.  Suns get yearly ACADEMY PICKS and also NGA Darwin picks.  Huge bonus especially as Academy can be automatically matched by the Duns.

    Spirit, thanks for the info. It just feels so wrong.

    Stat sheets has White with 6 possessions and no hit outs. Isn’t he meant to be ruck? Regardless, and underwhelming result

    Good exposure playing as a bottom ager in the national championships.   Well done to the kid, obviously going to be a hot prospect.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
