  1. https://www.afl.com.au/aflw/video/987962/future-star-showreel-kristie-lee-weston-turner?videoId=987962&modal=true&type=video&publishFrom=1690574400001 I think in watching the highlights packs, I’m looking at Kristie-Lee Weston-Turner. She’s got the athleticism and raw ability to be a Tayla Harris type, with a thumping kick and good marking. At 6ft and good pace, lots to develop. Double barrel hyphens also a fun feature !!!

  3. Lauren Pearce is a ruck. Like big Maxy Gawn, do not experiment by taking your best ruck and try to make them a forward. Banno is a forward. She is not great defensively and needs her pace to burn opponents. She’s a ripper and will bounce back. Libby to a premiership threat and contender. Ouch. 😭😭 best is behind her?? That’s rubbish. She’s 26. Just. Just turned 26. She’s a loss. Gay and West and Wilson and Sheriff and Birch. That’s a cull. 4 of best 18 out imv. Plenty of opportunities now for some fringe players and youngsters to come through. Refresh. Reset. Go again in ‘24.
  4. Yes I’m really hoping BBB gets back. He’s the forgotten man of 2023. Not even mentioned in the media regarding any absence and he can help our goalscoring and conversion.
  5. Demon Spirit Award goes to Lily Mithen. In third place is Lauren Pearce. Two worthy winners of the inaugural Daisy Pearce Trophy. 🏆 Kate Hore 🏆Tyla Hanks
  6. Libby was a star in season 7 and in the premiership. She didn’t have the greatest season just gone but was serviceable imv. One of our leaders and I think could be excused for a down year. Would be sad to see her go. Others also weren’t at their best this year by the way. It’s not all on Libby that the Dees fell away in straight sets.
  7. To confirm the trade MFC give Eliza West and Casey Sherriff and pick 16 MFC get pick 5 and 26
  8. Have to look at Melanie Staunton. Tough onballer. Lots of physical play to her game. That’s needed to our midfield.
  9. Injury ruined the draft chances for Riak Andrew in 2023. He’s very lightly built (192cm, 72kg) and plays as a tall interceptor role as a defender. Similar but shorter than his brother Mac Andrew (Suns) , he is raw but you can see real talent and he has the athletic qualities to progress to the AFL. Hope he gets into Casey list program and continues developing
  10. Watson does not deserve the medal. There are consequences. What … will Mckernan campaign be next ? Or Chris Grant ? If they were Magpies, Jeff Gleeson🏴‍☠️ and the biomedical experts 🐩 would get their decisions overruled. Grant was attempting to spoil perhaps like Cripps. It was too late to stop his action which was a reasonable act in a contact sport. 🤣🤣🤣ffs. Surely Mckernan was a reasonable act and fell after an attempted spoil. Perhaps Barnes moved into his line!! 🤣🤣🤣
  11. Still a star studded line up. Not sure why Gay is leaving but do believe clubs are throwing higher $$ dollars around. I think Dees can re-challenge. Harris and Banno were cooked by years end. Not sure why but they both underperformed in both finals.
  12. Pre season training. I remember it at our suburban footy club. Tooronga Malvern. Started about now but definitely not this intense. Usually an hour of running then hit the showers and off to the Malvern Vale afterwards for a Parma 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
  13. @Neil Crompton another elite available mid for next year is Zac Johnson from the Knights. He is probably rated just outside the top 10 right now. I rate him as highly as Smith and Ashcroft but has been under the radar. Expect that will change in next years championships. If you watched the futures game on GF day, he showed his power running and skill level. Whilst it’s another compromised year of father sons and academy picks, there is again lots of excellent talent likely throughout the first round.
  14. Absolutely @Nascent Tom Gross was a standout even as an under ager player in 2023. Huge talent. Pace. Decision making. Skills. Top 10 likely. I agree he could be around 9-10 pick at this stage. Dees would already have him on the list to closely watch in 2024.
