    I wouldn’t bet my life on Jeffo making it but I’ll gladly buy shares in him at a cheap price. His development from nothing at VFL to now being an excellent player at that level suggests he can step up again. Especially with how raw he was physically. Hopefully this toe injury doesn’t interrupt his summer.

    23 and under:

    A grade (future stars): Langford

    B+ (quality players):Bowie, Turner, Windsor, McVee, Lindsay

    B (could be difference makers): Kolt, Kentfield

    C+ (could contribute): JVR, Mentha

    C (role players or possible contributors) Howes, Jeffo, AMW, Adams, Culley

    Ungraded: the rest

    It’s a reasonable list of young players, we’ll know a lot more in 12 months time about where the key forwards are at.

    He said he gets called Luke Kenterfield more than Luker Kentfield. This is because Luker isn’t a common first name. His parents named him Luker which is his mum’s maiden name because she was extremely close to her mother (Luker’s grandmother) so he was gonna be named Luker regardless of gender.

    Interesting, thats 15 to add to established players. We need to nail this trade draft period to get that number to 20 and hope others like Brown, Woey and Culley make it.

    We have some great young potential.

    Unfortunately so do more than a handful of other clubs and we need to add to this crop with another bumper draft hand or two over the next two years.

    Which makes this off-season the most fascinating yet.

    I think you are under-rating:

    Culley : Good size matured body. Seems to have ticker !!

    JVR : Good Size has still a bit of maturity to go (Probably has had more asked of him as a young player)

    Windsor & Herbert : still in "boys" bodies , but lots of potential

    Langford : a quiet "gun"

    Bowey : is a gun (albeit a pocket pistol)

    Chandler: has really had his first year without ANB & Spargo so is a VG small Fwd and has a degree of toughness

    Howes: has improved markedly , but is a little limited

    McVee : Still here ??? (I hope)

    Turner : has a bit of Sicily about him insofar as his ability to intercept. Has arrived as a regular !!!

    Jefferson : Don't give up on him . He needs a few feeds !! I feel he was just starting to get into the tempo required (until VFL duties took prededence ??)

    We need to be patient, especially the taller blokes. . Gawn was a match stick !!

    Kalani WHite could be potentially anything , bbbbbbbuuuuuuuuuutttttttttttttttttttt must be given time and must eat at the same restaurant as WIndsor,Herbert, Jefferson

    All is not lost !!!

    You can mount a case that every club will have a list of young talent that they could reel off as well.

    Still felt we are a bit short on talent to be honest and there is a need to continue to stock pile yet again.

    There are still question marks on some names that are either haven't been exposed at AFL level or have, but haven't shown anything close to being AFL standard.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
