The Big 5... Clayton Oliver - get the obvious one out of the way first Jake Bowey - his output at AFL level hasn't matched the natural ability the guy has, expecting (hoping) for a big year from him. Ticks all boxes besides being big. Disco Turner - impressed me this year up forward, reckon he's got break out year written all over him Matt Jefferson - a make or break year for Jeffo. Completed his apprenticeship and should be playing more AFL games than VFL games in season 2025 if his progress is on the right track. I'm a believer. Christian Salem - one of our best players when fit, will we every see a 20+ game season from him again? We really miss his IQ and ball use when he's in form.

I think if Windsor ever moved into an inside mid role he may have the highest ceiling of the lot

Well you tell him cam mckenzie and Josh ward are duds!

I'd be taking any of these Youtube 'analysts' with a grain of salt.....

Zero is a small sample size for sure

What if the sun doesn't rise tomorrow, Bowser?

Disco Turner 40 goal year, take it to the bank

Disco #10 how good

I agree with most of that Binno just testing out the thumbs down sorry!!!

Straight to half back when Salem pings his first calf of 2025

You're watching the wrong highlights if that's the case

He was probably shattered we weren't visiting a school in Toorak

Saw the Swans draft another bunch of flankers and decided to pull the plug

We draft an outside mid now look at us

Maybe he's retired and become a school teacher

Caruso too much ego to have faith in

Didn't know where to post this, but always interesting to get some more behind the scenes footage of draft discussion, this time from the Giants. A very interesting tid bit towards the end, when Adrian Caruso was asked what they'd do if Berry, Lindsay, Whitlock (not sure which one) & Hotton slide, Caruso suggested the Giants would still select Cody Angrove (their pick 24) ahead of them. https://www.gwsgiants.com.au/video/1696834/inside-the-draft-night-one-strategy-meeting?videoId=1696834&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1732408728001

We've come full circle...some footage of Lindsay matched up on Langford, albeit only a couple minutes worth as this is the game Lindsay did his PCL A minor tragedy occurred in this game. Through one and a bit quarters of football we'd been treated to one of the best head to head battles of the year between Lindsay and Langford, directly matched up on each other in the middle and each at the absolute top of their game. Unfortunately we lost Xavier to a suspected PCL injury, cutting short the spectacle and probably cutting short his season given how few weeks we have remaining. In his one quarter and 4 mins of play Lindsay racked up 11 disposals and 5 clearances showing just how hot a start he'd made.

North didn't have the other picks to give up to give Essendon enough points to match a bid I don't think, only having pick 2 & 60 odd and nothing inbetween

Take the needles out of the eyes of his voodoo doll frappa, do him a favour!

Imagine how good he'd be if he changed again

Agreed, will Travalgia's intensity or will Lindsay's class win out

Any other tid bits provided?
