He did look ok for someone having his first start at VFL level

He has decent speed, seems to read the game well and neat skills

Is, or will he be a little undersized for AFL - that is probably the main concern (has some time on his side)

He is listed at 180cm (5’11”) in old terms, fast smart and piercing left foot kick.😁

Size won’t be a problem if he can rack em up and hit targets - just look at Errol Gulden

Very good first game. Needs to work on his repeat speed, tackling and the classic left footers issue on what to do when he gets hemmed in.

I saw him kick a couple of right foot kicks that were arguably better than what Viney, Trac and Oliver dish up on their preferred.

He'll be fine cobba.

Fair enough - perhaps that in itself will not be a problem

As I said he does have time on his side and should fill out a bit with an AFL weights program

He reminded me a bit of Kynan Brown who I'd love to think will make it but so far looks a 50/50 proposition

@Sydee sorry Sinnema is not like Kynan Brown.

KB is a tackling machine with good 2nd efforts but has a poor kick that holds him back from playing AFL footy. He is a defensive oriented player.

Sinnema has an elite left foot disposal , moves well as an outside runner but will need time to develop his defensive side with tackling & 2nd efforts.

Is Sinnema eligible this year?

Yep

Likely he will be added as a Cat B NGA rookie selection. Has had a good year and is a classy user of the footy. However imv would be a late draft pick at best or perhaps not drafted if it was in the a free pool.

We don't have B-Rookie spots for next year. Mentha and Berry have them; Berry till 2027

Upgrade Mentha? Or just use a rookie pick for Sinnema.

Had to look up Berry as I had completely forgotten him.

Has anybody heard what he's been doing since we picked him up.

University 3rds or whatever?

I don’t want to question you (I’m pretty sure you are always on the money) but I thought the press release for Menthas extension was he was now a Cat A?

Haven't found any media release on Cat A.

Either would work.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
