Perhaps live links embedded in the thread to Jeff's x, instagram, tiktok, facebook, whatever?

Should more than satisfy the need 😉

    When can we expect them to be rolling off the draft conveyer belt?

    Have heard one of the twins is an absolute gun, potential even better then Kalani.

    If they are any good, the AFL will probably restrict access to the father sons rule than let us have the next Ascrofts.

    It's fascinating how many different opportunities the AFL has to feed our MFCSS.

    Yeah, agreed, but I think there's actually quite some realisim to my thinking as well.

    We all saw what happened with Jamarra Ugle-Hagan, then us loosing Mac Andrew to GC.

    Already Ross Lyon and others are calling out that the academies and FS are not serving the equalisation measures in the AFL well (which to a certain extent I think is true). I do foresee huge pressure to roll the FS concessions back at some point in the future.

    Oh, I'm inclined to think MFCSS is very soundly based! 😄

    From looking at an old 'potential father son' article on the Melbourne website, the White twins should both be 14 now. If they both want to go down that road, they'll be drafted in 2029.

    I think its Tahj. There was a mention in another thread where someone relayed Kalani's comment of "Watch out for Tahj".

    I remember listening to a podcast a while ago where Jeff said he had kept Tahj and Kai out of the GC academy when they were younger to let them just enjoy their footy. If Tahj is any good, no doubt we'll be fighting GC to get him.

    By the time they're ready, father son rule will be unfortunately scrapped imo.

    Yeah 100%. There will a new twin exclusion clause introduced when the media picks up on their potential to then be reversed one year later.

    I hear it now bypasses GOOnDiWINdi.

    this is fine. this is what it should be. no discount for FS or for academy players. first access yes but no discount.

    27 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

    with the change of rules, it sounds like if they are both highly rated in their draft year we are going to need LOTS of points to secure them

    Are they 3 to 4 years away?

    Trade future picks and senior players.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
