Vineytime

Marcus played for the Dandenong Stingrays this weekend, had 20 possessions, 3 tackles and kicked 2 goals. One to track.

Windsor Kolt Sharp Roo Culley All showed improvement on last year, some great signs. Sharp great in contest and Windsors kicking much better. A great day at the G!

First look at Heath, Miocek & Steele in Dees colours, couldn’t be more impressed. Kolt - pass, X Taylor is a better option in defence, play him. Fritta, Sparrow, Riv, Lever all impressed too. Pickett x 2 - Just WOW. Game plan looked great and clearly above Noths, felt watching the game Kingy was out coaching Clarko.

Just reported on CH9 news, “Viney's Achilles injury could keep him out for the whole season “

Family WAS mad Richmond supporters, now Demons. A proud East Ringwood family, one of the best junior and senior clubs in the land. Plays with aggression, has some swagger, hates to lose, he posses a great leap with agility to play on talls and smalls Will base his game on Weddle from Hawthorn. He has worked hard on his kicking over the last few years. Slots in Rd 1.

Greeves not mentioned either.

A potential for MFC. Excellent citizen, has seen what it takes training with a draftee from 2 years ago that is excelling and was blown away by the level required, is willing to do the work.

I spoke to a top 10 draftee lock today who I have coached, some insights: Dovaston - Hawthorn or Adelaide likely. Farrow - Yeah he is alright. Dursma - Very laid back, lots of talent , similar to his 2 brothers. Cumming - Richmond have serious interest. X Taylor - Richmond or Melbourne. Nairn - Never heard of him, yeah apparently Melb have told him they are going to take him. Cal Twomey - he is a ripper fella, might be hard to get the top 10 right this year.

He has played in defence the last few years

Xavier Taylor, if he is not taken by Richmond with one of their 2 picks, he is a chance to slide to Melbourne, Essendon looking to draft to strengthen their midfield and may pass on him. Quality young man, has a great leap and can lock down small and tall forwards, is also an intercept defender. Reminds me of Miles Bergman.

How does this bloke have a job? Paying $700k of Oliver’s salary for the next 5 years, plus all the non AFL standard players he has traded in. SACK HIM NOW. HE WOULD HAVE TO BE THE WORST LIST MANGER IN THE COMP!

Trac underperformed this year, blind Freddy knows that…. He should aspire to take his game to Dangerfield levels from last nights prelim. Aim high as he has the talent to achieve that Unless you think otherwise of course?

He will go a lot earlier than that, he is a first round pick and will be the first or second Eastern boy picked.

Dangerfield - WOW. What a ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Petracca, model your game on Danger and how he attacks the ball , Trac is capable if he wants to…..
