Taj getting a good mention on AFL.com DEMONS FATHER-SON PROSPECT EMERGES MELBOURNE father-son talent Taj Woewodin has emerged to firm as a draftee for this year. Woewodin, the son of 2000 Brownlow medallist Shane, is eligible to join the Demons as a father-son selection at the end of this year. Shane played 138 games for the Demons between 1997-2002 before playing three seasons with Collingwood. Taj, 18, is a versatile midfielder who has pushed himself into the West Australian under-19s program after a consistent season with East Fremantle. He's going really well for a player who was probably sitting outside of our calculations early in the year. He's showed some terrific improvement over the last month and is a really strong character who is dedicated, professional and works hard," said WA talent manager Adam Jones. "He's very clean with his ball handling and he’s shown real competitiveness over our trial games. He's also been able to play multiple positions – wing, half-forward, half-back and he’s had an impact in each position. "Taj has really good skills by foot and he has a good all-round game." After averaging 22 disposals at colts level this season, Woewodin has been a solid player in Western Australia’s recent under-19 trial games ahead of the national carnival. The Demons have first access to Woewodin, who is open to moving states to follow his football pathway. Melbourne’s last father-son selection was Billy Stretch in 2014. – Callum Twomey

Turned 24 only few weeks ago....

I'd be genuinely happy if we had a serious crack at Luke Parker.

Goody just doing a cheeky leg raise..

No Weideman? Interesting

Did it on the weekend and it certainly got him involved more.

I don’t think he can put contract talks on hold considering he's still contract until the end of 2022.

Allies squad, not NT.

Interesting on the limited time I've seen him play (2 VFL games) I'm yet to see this lighting speed that he supposedly has. I thought if there was a weakness of his game it would be his speed.

Well he is in our NGA? His numbers that I've seen at NAB level stack pretty well? Pretty sure he made the NT state squad as well.

No appeal. Club has accepted the suspension.

Oh I meant in terms of player movement.

Looking like it'll be a fairly quite trade period for us.

Still have Mitch Duncan and Jeremy Cameron to come back into the side too..

Do you watch much footy? Why on God earth's name would you put Hibbo on Cameron? Cameron would kick a bag on Hibberd. Not only that Hibberd is 186cm in height compared to Jeremy Cameron who is 195cm tall. Match up would just be plain silly.

Well now that Viney is out, who comes in? Vandenberg? Jordon?

Because the club rate Joel extremely highly and he's been named emergency the past few weeks. He's also shown he can play on the smalls and do the job like he did against Papley last year. I'm not a Smith fan myself, but Hibberd hasn't exactly been crash hot the past couple of weeks. Just seems to fumble at the most crucial time.

Fair point

Not surprised by the 2 Weeks.

Interesting no Salem?

Time to let it go Jack.. he ain't coming to us.

I'd be chasing Luke Parker hard.

Is this legit? Bloody hell what a pisser!

I too LOL'd at that... Yep think it'll be 1 or 2 weeks. Who knows honestly though with the tribunal. All over the shop in recent years.

Interestingly I do wonder whether Joel Smith could be a surprise inclusion for Salem?
