Random Task

Soligo would be ideal but can't see the Crows parting with him. Fairly certain he's contracted long term as well.

Probably Sparrow unless a club makes a play for Oliver

Can someone with photoshop (or ms paint) skills please put together the grim reaper meme with Bailey Laurie knocking on consecutive doors which has the blood trails of Spargo and Petracca on it. Can't be left out of the team if there's no players left to play 😅

There are some individual threads for some of our NGA prospects but thought perhaps we could use a centralised thread to track information on future academy players. For now, it appears academy's will stay although access and cost may change in the future. Marcus Prasad 167cm small forward playing for the stingrays. Has represented Vic Country at u16 levels and u18 this year as a bottom ager. Draft year 2026 Corey Ah-Mu Younger brother of Tairon, Corey is 196cm at 16yrs of age and has played a few games for Dandenong as a bottom ager as well as representing Vic Country in u16s. While his brother is not eligible this year for the dees there is suggestion that Corey will become available to us as the AFL expand the eligibility criteria (TBC). Draft year 2027. 3 & 4. James Goerlitz and Zye Bergles-Brown. Small bit of research led to these 2 names as part of the dees academy. Both named in the 2025 Dandenong stingrays u16 team which would probably see them draft eligible in 2027 or 2028. I believe James Goerlitz played representarive footy for Vic Country. I otherwise know nothing else of these players.

Where's 37 coming from? Spargo compo. I know the points calculator isn't a great way of working out deals but our outs and ins would equate McVee to be worth pick 36. Think we can do better.

Doesn't surprise me. What did surprise me is that we continued to select him. Did the kid and the team no favours. I'm looking forward to seeing him in 2026. With the right attitude I reckon he'll lock himself into the 22 on merit and become a weapon across the half-forward line with midfield bursts. From the outside looking in, I sense he has the ability to become a brayshaw-like figure for team culture and camaraderie.

Looks to be a natural forward with nice leading patterns. I'm curious to see how he goes in a team with quicker ball movement. Dropped marks and missed kicks I'm putting down as a confidence/nerves issue for a player adjusting to AFL level. Entering year 4 so time is still on his side, needs to show more though.

Judd was eager to promote himself to the #4 jumper. Can we still blame Jack Watts for this?

CJ from hawthorn was touted as potential player up for trade. Contracted though.

Well Judd leaving has indirectly lead me to discovering a new band, cheers Gorgoroth. FYI Be'lakor also playing at the croxton next week.

Thanks, forgot about the shoulder injury. Doesn't necessarily have to be a separate trade but both Simpson and Freo have to green light it which makes it very unlikely.

If I'm not mistake you've been saying Judd was leaving for a while. Any chance you can rename yourself to optimistic dee and start telling us who's coming to the club? If you could start with Butters that would be great. Many thanks.

I quite liked the look of Simpson in the small bits I've seen of him. Only played the 3 games this year though so obviously has some limitations or flaws to his game. Perhaps @Pennant St Dee might have a better idea on if he's an ideal target and how he's looked at wafl level?

#4, 9, 14, 27, 28, 33, 34, 38, 41, ? #1, 5

It's been >2hrs since the news broke... Where is @WERRIDEE with a best 23 sans Judd?
