Great stuff.

Great to see the crowd really get into the spirit. Have seen several instagram stories of the crowd going absolute nuts.

Great turn out and hope that everyone that attended have an enjoyable day, Keep the pics coming.

Feeling I get as well. Some parents like to go about it in a quiet way and enjoy the journey with their kids, and some like Jeff love to let the whole world know about it and live through their kids own glory. I know a few parents like this also.

Would be fitting having another NT boy to don the number 45.

Watching his highlights i can't help but think he reminds me a lot of Corey Enright. He's not a line breaking half back like Hunt or Rivers, but when he has the footy he has so much composure and time that time just slows down around him. Doing a bit more research on him i came across this article that states he started playing senior football at just 15 years of age and even kicked 4 goals on his debut. Seems like he had a pretty impressive under 16's year which resulted in being selected for All Australian. Geraldton teen footballer Judd McVee in top form | The West Australian

Son of Nathan Brown. Should be part of Oakleigh Chargers squad next year as a bottom age prospect and eligible for father son in the 2023 draft.

Likes to crack in and go hard at the contest. Last bloke that came up from NT that showed similar traits was a bloke by the name of Mathew Whelan...

I questioned the Rosman selection last year especially as Jack Carroll was still available. But it made sense why he was recruited and i looked at it as a long term prospect. I think Taylor's last 3 years of recruiting is by far the best we've seen in the AFL probably since Geelong and Hawthorn nailed those picks back in the 2000's. There were some questionable picks that i was negative about when Taylor chose guys like Hulett, King, Dion Johnstone and even Lachie Fillapovic ahead of a Casey ruckman called Oscar Mcinerney. I'll mention Jayden Hunt as another who came in as a completely raw and unknown project, his first two years he just looked completely out of his depth at VFL level but the coaching staff had other things in mind. As I have already mentioned above, I actually think Rosman would be a much better suited to that running 3rd tall forward.

Agree. While some may have him penciled him as a winger, i see him more of a 3rd tall defender in the Jack Gunston role. His high level work rate will enable him to be able to work up and down the ground. He's also a strong contested mark as well. With Blake Howes coming in, I'd really like to see Rosman trial up forward over the pre season.

Wow, fair rave on the young kid.

I watched a lot of Casey this year and this couldn't be more more further to your statement I'm still bemused at people like yourself who are so quick to write off kids straight away after their first year in the system. Not only was Rosman's development this year stifled by Covid but he like many other kids in their first year barely had any continuity. James Jordon is a perfect example why you don't just write off first year players. JJ show much in his first year in the VFL and some were quick to question his worth as a future AFL player. He proved many wrong this year and matched it with the best midfielders in the game. Rosman played exactly how I expect a raw tall athletic player would after missing a whole year of footy due to Covid. He played the first 6 games this year with Casey and he grew confident with each game and was starting to hit some find. After round 6 the season was put on hold until they resumed back again at round 11. He played only 3 games after before it was called off again. How on earth can a kid gain any momentum or form through that? it was a unfair on many young kids starting out in the AFL. Though, i am not surprised that you're once again finding ways to be extremely negative towards the club and how they're handling the list. This is you to the Tee. Here I was thinking a premiership would give many people on here clarification that the club has pretty much gotten it right on field and off.

Am i right to believe that we still have 1 free rookie spot available?

Well said. I have been banging on about this for a while now. The whole narrative that Paul Roos played a significant part in this premiership is becoming a joke now. Not only has their been a lot of personal and staff change over since Roos era, but Simon Goodwin has brought in his own philosophy on coaching and recruiting. Not discounting Roos for what he done for this club, but its been 5 years since he last set foot in this door. I would say 2019 was the ideal wack we needed before we had a full club review and changed the culture complete upside down even from the Roos era.

His highlight package is seriously very impressive. His left foot kicking and poise is what stood out for me. I'm hoping his career pans out the same way as James Harmes. Came through the rookie draft, both Melbourne supporters and every year he's just gotten better to play a big part in our premiership campaign. No reason why little Woey can't nut out 100 games for us and become a great role player in our best 22. All reports suggest he has a high character, and unbelievable work rate for someone his age. Welcome Taj.

Looked at his WAFL profile and saw he's listed at 195cm tall. bit short for a ruck?

Haven't been up to scratch with the whole WA border situation. But is it true that both Woewodin and JVR wont actually be able to enter Victoria until next year?

Its so interesting reading some of the news out of the draft that Melbourne have pretty much had the steal of the draft with Howes. I must admit, and i hope this doesn't come across the wrong way. But when i watch his highlights i get Jayden Laverde pre draft feels about him. Similar athletic players who are both tall and have great speed. Laverde really struggled at AFL level for a few years there and was close to being delisted. His found his niche now as a handy 3rd tall defender. I think that's why a part of me was stoked we picked JVR as our first pick instead of Howes because he was true Jason Taylor type pick, and also he filled an important need for us. I probably didn't warm to Howes instantly? I do know Howe was extremely highly rated in his under 16's year and made the All Australian team when playing for Vic Metro. Of every Phantom Draft i read, majority had him easily a pick inside the top 20. I think Cal Twomey mentioned that GWS had serious considerations to select him at pick 13. Huge endorsement for Howes. Had there been a full season of the NAB there is every chance he could have snuck in around the top 12 pick due to his form playing as a winger. The fact that Jason Taylor who is imo the best recruiter by far in the land has picked him Howes is enough for me! I'm stoked to have him on board now and hopefully this is a pick where clubs will look back and ponder why the hell he lasted to pick 39. Welcome to the premiers Blake!

I see Zac Foote has left Casey for QLD?

Big lad...

Great get for this club. Big physical 195cm 88kg key forward who has also played down back. Had some insane numbers in the back end of the year in the colts level as a noted goal kicker. Welcome Jacob.

Well done Tommy Brown.

In fact I'll quote this myself. Congratulations to Mac Andrew in getting drafted. Obviously clubs saw fit to rate him in the top 10 draft. Who would have thought huh.. All the best to his career and will watch with interest.
