@Whispering_Jack thanks. I had a look at Eastern V Western last night. Marked down number 28 for the Jets … 16yo Jake Miller. 6ft4in big key forward. Worked up and down with good footy iq. Strong mark. Good left foot. Kicked 3 goals from 7 marks.

Had a look at the league stats. Has now kicked 12 goals from his 5 games and averages 7 marks per game.

A bit more digging and found out he was captain of Vic metro under 16s and all Australian under 16 full forward. Dees might want to keep round 1 pick for 2026. He looks a ripper as a FF/CHF type.

Jake lives down the road from me. Seriously talented.

He’s in the ‘27 draft crop, good chance to be Tassie bound.

The Sandringham Dragons are in the running for their fourth consecutive premiership after beating the Gippsland Power by ten points at Casey Fields.

The Dragons were in front all day and their best players were 184cm midfielder Rory Wright who is a potential first round draft pick from Caulfield Grammar who had 30 touches and a prolific small ball magnet in Jack Dalton.

Sandringham Dragons 4.4.28 6.5.41 9.7.61 11.9.75

Gippsland Power 1.3.9 3.8.26 6.9.45 9.11.65

Goals

Sandringham Dragons Fincher Griffin Tyrer 2 Buck Butler Galbally Lambert Texeria

@Whispering_Jack

️Ollie Greeves. Eastern. 4 goals. 35 possessions. Has future star written all over. Top 10 Draftee

️Lachie Dovaston. The kid will adapt perfectly into AFL. Smart and skilled sml forward. Two goals today.

️Sullivan Robey. 25 possessions and a key goal early in the last qtr sealed the game before the Ranges marched on.

️Willem Duursma. If he’s not pick 1, he’s pick 2. Will play AFL very early in 2026. Eagles likely to get him.

️Rory Wright. Just really hope he lands at the Dees. Great young midfielder. Best on ground v Giopsland today in a tough contest. Has the goods to be an AFL player. I’ve called him out since April and not changing my mind. Get him JT!!!

Rory Wright. Trying to keep him under wraps but he’s too good … perfect player to add to our new young midfield group. Like XL20, he can play as an attacking hbf until he builds up to an AFL midfielder role. He will be one to watch in this weeks GF. Up against the Ranges midfield group.

he looks so much taller than 183cm, seriously tough player i like his closing work as a back, more of a kicker than a run and carrier but i can see why u like his ability to go on the inside as a mid too

These guys are big on Robey - he's really come from the clouds it seems ...

Has been mentioned as having the potential to be the biggest bolter since Oliver. Might go top 10 after not even being in the talent pathway until halfway through the year.

  • 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.
