spirit of norm smith

It’s McKenzie or Bytel for me at our first pick. Pick 26-28ish then likely Kennerley, Turner, Hamill or Sparrow.

Ben King. Two years on the Gold Coast then it’s goodbye.

Afl and Gill are full of themselves. Great game but absolute tool in charge

Afl and tech is a joke

Crashed again this year

Lukosius after 2020: I’m a young star, get me out of here.

I’m 2 for 2

big night tonight for lots of young men and their families

Real strength and a booming 60 metre kick. Happy days.

Wags junior. You beauty. Shows our Casey pathway and how we can develop and then REWARD youngsters. Tim Smith. Fritsch. Wagner. Lockhart?

I like him. Someone who likes it tough. He will be handy in ruck or forward rotation and will relieve Gawny from being exhausted by August.

Great news. Certainly impressed at Casey Demons. Agree depth player but could prove handy. Brings intensity which is always needed.

Bailey Williams and Fraser Turner. That would be 2 very very good youngsters. Wait and see.

Believe so but given its year 1, should be rare

I think Twomey has got a very very good insight once again. Crows and Eagles next picks. Leaves us with choices around pick #23 Bailey Williams Xavier O’halloran Ed McHenry Ely Smith Then probably look at these guys with pick #28 Tom Mckenzie Fraser Turner Jacob Kennerley Riley Bowman (if we don’t get Bailey Williams).

Valente is the same speed as Salem, Brayshaw & Harmes. Not a jet but not slow. Definitely top 20 rated for me. His efficiency in disposal does remind me of Salem.

Chayce Jones at 10 (too low), Luke Valente at 28 (too high) and Ely Smith at 31 (way too high) were surprising. Bedford at 34 would be too early for a nomination. He’s fast and skilled but needs 2+ years development.

Again mentioned as likely draftee. AFL website article lists Lockhart and Corey Wagner. Both has excellent year at Casey.

Lockhart is probably pick 85-90 or rookie selection.

Fair question. Need to ask every year about bringing Andrew Brayshaw back to Victoria. But the Brayshaw family also has strong family ties in WA so need to prioritise keeping Angus Brayshaw.

Yes not sure Buckenara has been to Specsavers!!

Still amazing he missed Jordan Clark. Maybe he’s hoping the WA Eagles grab him!!

We’re back to our potential 23 and 28. In order of my preferences Ely Smith Bailey Williams Sam Sturt Xavier OHalloran Chayce Jones Xavier Duursma Tom McKenzie Sydney Stack I think these are the likely available and best options. Though might get a Zak Butters and Liam Stocker who could drop. Unlikely but you never know.

7 father sons or academy zone selections here in top 30. I still think Ely Smith and Tom McKenzie are top 30. Jordan Clark, Sydney Stack, Riley Bowman, Jez Mclennan, Sam Sturt and Jarrod Cameron also unlucky to miss this list. Thats top 38.

Yes I think we will go with round 1 (assume Lever out injured) Jetta. May. Hibberd Lewis. Frost. Salem Kolodjashnji. Viney. Brayshaw Petracca. Weideman.
