Good fight but I’d like to see her playing footy in the future.

No mention of Jake Bowey who copped a knock in the game vs Adelaide which makes him favourite for the mystery injury for this week.

They just beat bottom three club Hawthorn with a last ditch effort late in the game. Yes, they are still aiming for the finals but I’m not convinced.

There were some gems involved in early Saturday morning viewing during the late 70s.

Some more mixed messaging to throw people off the scent?

Went out to dinner this evening and was told by one of the others in attendance that Melbourne is lucky to be in its current place because it should/could have easily have lost the last two games which it won by narrow margins (leaving aside the fact that previously it had also lost some games by narrow margins). The same person is in awe of Collingwood’s fantastic ability to win the close ones which is what “makes them such a great team”. Remarkable!

Surely it’s time to put Gunston in defence as a spare man?

Hawks doing well - they’re certainly not tanking!

As predicted by me exclusively on Tuesday in the injury thread, … “The scene is perfectly set for a couple of Mystery Injuries of the Week.” Harry Petty was down as a test and hasn’t come up but the real mystery is Blake Howes which is a pity because he was coming close to earning an AFL game.

AFL Draft 2023 Rankings: Gap between Reid and the rest closes as father-son guns boost prospects

The scene is perfectly set for a couple of Mystery Injuries of the Week. As far as Clarrie is concerned, I don’t think the selectors will pick him unless they’re convinced by the medical team that he’s right to go. Given that we play North Melbourne in three weeks time, I can’t see that happening until after that game.

Here's a profile from rookie me central following Kalani White's selection in the 2023 AFL U16 All Australian Team Profile Centre Half Back: Kalani White Suns Academy | 197cm | 05/05/2007 One of six Suns Academy players in the All Australian side, White comes from good pedigree as the son of 1994 number one pick, Jeff White. That means he’s father-son eligible at Melbourne – though, not Fremantle – on top of his Gold Coast ties. White played at either end of the field and was an aerial asset, rising high for plenty of eye-catching marks and moving fluently as a tall and rangy key position prospect.

Wondering if you and the panel could analyse where Fremantle is at in terms of their final position to determine where the Luke Jackson draft picks land? I put the question to Siri and she replied, “I am not in a position to answer that question.” So much for artificial intelligence.

Oli Sestan went to Xavier last year.

Country crushes Metro in nine-goal run VIC COUNTRY 1.3.9 5.8.38 12.9.81 15.16 (106)

 Vic Country: Z. Duursma, H. Reid, D. Wilson, F. O’Sullivan, A. Reid, G. Stevens
 Vic Metro: L. Ashcroft, J. Smith, O. Murphy, W. Green, N. Watson, C. Harrop

Ryley Sanders of the Sandringham Dragons and who played for the Allies is the Larke Medalist (series b & f) - would be a handy draftee, notwithstanding he’s a Tasmanian and would be a candidate for the Tassie Tigers when they enter the AFL. Another Tasmanian, Colby McKercher was runner up.

Zane Duursma has shut up his detractors in this game with three goals all in the third term. Vic Country blitzing Vic Metro after trailing by 2 points at half time. They’re now 41 points up.

It’s something of an anticlimax (because the undefeated Allies have already taken the title) but the finale of the championships takes place in a few hour’s time at IKON Park (game starts at 10:35). Last year’s match up was an exciting game and it showcased many of the eventual top ten draft picks. There will be some good ones on display today as well, including our very own father/son prospect Kynan Brown. The game will be televised live on Foxtel. PREVIEW | 2023 AFL U18s: Vic Country vs. Vic Metro

Melbourne stormed to its twelfth win for the 2022 season after finally putting the Crows away in the final quarter of their clash at Adelaide Oval.

The 29-point victory was by no means an easy one for the Demons who went into the game without a recognised ruck and a forward line with a solitary tall. It was a tough slog but they managed to get away with what was a comfortable win in the end thanks to the efforts of Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Ed Langdon.

“However, he did play in Casey's practice match against St Kilda's reserves on Saturday, July 15 at Casey Fields, kicking one goal, gathering 16 possessions and taking six marks.” That’s not necessarily indicative of him struggling while being tried in a new position.

With the end of the home and away season approaching the first retirements of 2023 have been announced - Richmond’s Robbie Tarrant, followed by Jack Ziebell of North Melbourne. There will be many more to come so here’s this year’s version of the ins and outs at the AFL Clubs ~
