Like most big men, Verrall is taking time to develop as a ruckman but has shown some encouraging signs. Finished ninth in the Casey Demons best & fairest this year.

Date of Birth: 11 March 2004
Height: 199cm

Goals CDFC 2024: 6

Something about this picture (lower leg strapping n all)...

Any comparisons yet makeable with (195cm) J.White? Albeit that JW had 3 seasons and 32 games at Freo under his belt by the time he first played for us, having just turned 21, which WV will do at the start of the 2025 season.

If there are any comparisons to be made, they'll be on 3 years' delay (at least). And he'll only be a 200-gamer, not a 250.

I remember reading Will’s coaches report in his draft year where he stated that he was as good as Harry Barnett, he had an exceptional U17 year, but but suffered from groin and hip issues during U18 preseason which hampered him during that year. He also had an issue with his pelvis during his first preseason with the Dees.

Will was injury free this year so I, like all Dee supporters will be hoping that he has a huge preseason and starts to live up to those high expectations voiced by his former coach. 2025 would be a great time for Will Verrall to break into the team and provide that ruck/ fwd relief that we have lacked since Jackson departed. Good luck Will we are all hoping that you have a great year in ‘25.

 

The beauty about Max signing on for another 2 years, and Tom Campbell hopping on board is that it allows Verrall all the time in the world to develop


Is 199cm tall enough for a ruckman these days.?

Might he have grown since last year's measurement?

Is 199cm his true height?

His skills are good...and improving.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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.
