Sinnema in this year's draft and then Prasad next year. I've heard good things about Prasad. Small in stature but playing style similar to Isaac Kako. There is still a lot of water to go under the bridge, but the fact he made his Coates League debut as a 15 year is amazing in itself. All Australian at under 16s level so well worth keeping an eye on him this year.- Welcome to Demonland Matthew Jefferson
Please provide evidence and quotes where i have "demanded" for Jefferson to be Calsher Dear this year? I'll wait.- The Go Home Factor
About as boring as you missing the whole point I'm making. You then tried to use one example that happened 35 odd years ago as a gauge for its success. Your argument is flawed.- Welcome to Demonland Matthew Jefferson
Well said. A good comparison would be Calsher Dear from Hawthorn. Skinny tall forward who was pick 56 from the 2023 draft and came in with little fanfare off the back of limited exposure at Coates League level. Plays 17 games in his first year last year for 25 goals and tore the Bulldogs apart in last year's final. Lucky not to kick 6 that night. I wasn't a fan on draft night when we selected Jefferson and was hoping for Ed Allan instead. I then actually became a staunch supporter of Jefferson when others have questioned him over the last couple of year and thought maybe he was stiff not to be given games last year perhaps. My biggest worry is his intensity is of Josh Schache like.- The Go Home Factor
Yeah 35 plus years ago. How's that worked out since huh? The best ruckman i have ever seen since being a Melbourne supporter was plucked straight from our very own backyard.- Just wondering...
Agree with coaching contracts. I immediately think of the Brett Ratten situation at St Kilda where he signed a new deal and then was sacked within months. The AFL should have should have intervened before it was announced. Shocking treatment.- Just wondering...
Or the the fact that he also gets paid outside of his salary through his five sponsorship deals he's currently locked in twith Monster Energy Drink, Cotton On, McDonald's, deodorant company in Stuff That Matters and Barry's Drink.. No different to Gawn, Lever and Melksham who own property down Mornington Peninsula.- Just wondering...
Saved up his pocket money and brought a bit of land.. What's the issue again?- PRESEASON TRAINING: Friday 31st January 2025

Interesting that there's no info on Spargo..- PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 29th January 2025
Yeah you'd think so.. So now that the club has officially announced the reason why he's been missing its a good lesson why we shouldn't jump to conclusions and think of the worst the proper facts come out. Poor kid alright.. pneumonia is a pretty serious illness and I hope he takes all the time in the world.- PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 29th January 2025
I'm pretty sure that if it comes out that Kentfield has decided not to pursue a career any further, then the club places him on the inactive list which means this opens up a list spot for us. He can't be off the list completely until he is officially delisted and paperwork is lodged through to the AFL which doesn't happen until the first list lodgement at the end of the year. I could be completely wrong.- Kozzy Homesick & Wants to Leave?
He ain't leaving Freo. His brother Hamish is fairly confident of this.- PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 29th January 2025
Correct. Signed a contract extension alongside Kynan Brown and AMW back in September last year. I'm not going to jump to conclusions and say he's been delisted as of yet like some have already. Clearly something has happened where perhaps the club has given him some sort of personal leave to deal with whatever is going on in his life. I hope he is okay.- PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 29th January 2025
Are we lead to believe Spargo is still a few months off potentially from resuming full time contact training? Whats the go with Kentfield also? Seems like he's been missing for a while?- Kozzy Homesick & Wants to Leave?
Because it rarely happens in today's AFL trade landscape that there is a player trade between two clubs, especially gun players as well. Give me examples of when this has happened the last 5 years? If Kozzie leaves at the end of the year and Melbourne use the same ANB home/family treatment then two early first round draft picks is the starting point. Freo then need to get creative.- Where to play Caleb Windsor?
Saw nothing in the the last few games in Judd McVee that suggest he'll do well as a midfielder. Not everyone needs to be turned into a midfielder. He's a gun half back flanker that's shut down some of the best small forwards in the game in his short career so far. Leave him there.- PRESEASON TRAINING: Wednesday 22nd January 2025
Well clearly not according to the coaches. Didn't even finish top 10 in the best and fairest.- PRESEASON TRAINING: Monday 20th January 2025

Really disappointing to hear about Brown. Out of all the young first and 2nd year players, i had him down for a break out season. Big big fan of young Kynan..- PRESEASON 2025: Training Times
