Freddy Fuschia 773 Posted February 3 Posted February 3 On 01/02/2025 at 07:54, Whispering_Jack said: The inability to get direct access to Tairon Ah-Mu is annoying but the rules are the rules and, unless changed in the near future (unlikely), we’re going to have to live with it. Moreover, it might have boiled down to a choice at draft time between Ah-Mu and White so it’s not such a significant problem if we think the latter’s our best choice anyway. There's an article in the Herald Sun about Samoan born Richmond (and former Casey Demons) player Mykelti Lefau going back to Samoa to visit his roots and promote the game. If Melbourne were smart, it would immediately start pushing for players of Samoan heritage to be included in NGA qualification rules in the same way as players from other countries that do meet the current qualifications. There's no logical reason this shouldn't happen and it's just a pity that for some reason Melbourne apparently is never proactive in such things. 6 Quote

old55 23,864 Posted February 3 Posted February 3 On 31/01/2025 at 18:47, whatwhat say what said: marcus prasad and toby sinnema both sound genuinely exciting; really encouraging that the latter played more games as a bottom-ager last season than any other player disappointing that we don't have ah-mu eligible as well, but add kalani white and that's three likely prospects for dees in 2025 in a year in which we don't have a first round selection I didn't spot a father / son prospect in these profles @Whispering_Jack - presume you were referring to white? Pretty impressive by Sinnema last year given he's a December birthday he was really bottom age and played all year as a 16yo. 1 Quote
