Just wanted to REINFORCE the credentials of Dominic Sheed, captain of the WA under 18's. Todays game vs. Vic Country, Sheed has 30 possessions again, 4 goals. BOG by a mile. Solid build , long kick, run, creates, takes on the game... is a STAR

you mean "Luke McDonald" - son of Donald McDonald. It comes to qualifying and Josh Kelly's dad didn't play enough games for Kangas to claim him

I was impressed. Give Jimmy a good run and he will show his talent. Good stuff Jimmy

Hopefully next year we can get more "lead time" for this. maybe nominate it at the start of the year ... I already have plans for that weekend. Also maybe consider it outside of school holidays where airfares are more expensive. Good initiative to carry fwd in 2014+

Josh Kennedy (WC Eagles) !!!!!!

23 June 2013 WAFL update - Potential draftee Dayle Garlett continued his superb season with Swan Districts, booting five goals against South Fremantle. Surely we need stars desperately. Bring in Mark "Choco" Williams and watch him develop this kid.

agree... Schwab was a disaster

agree ... nickname is steak knives. Just an add-on to the deal

Stage 1 is complete. The removal of Schwab, McLardy & Neeld. Stage 2 - the appointments ... Roos must be the # 1 target for MFC coach. No more assistants trying to be senior coaches. We demand a proven premiership winning coach.

MFC choice must be Luke Dunstan .... daylight

Retain Craig in 2014 for development role ...

mids, mids, mids, mids, mids, mids ... we need 5-6 more mids as a priority. Sheed, Aish, Dunstan in round 1 (#2)

Jeff has to put up or shut up. He could be VERY VERY GOOD or VERY VERY BAD ...

a definite chance for the Dees

Not a skinny kid ... Sheed and Dunstan are not skinny (Aish is ...)

Sign him up (posted 4th time). Draft 2014 - father son.

Likely we will have pick #2 in 2013 draft. Whilst our player development is poor, I think we again need one of the best young mids coming through. If you get a chance, get to watch some of Dominic Sheed (WA under 18s) against Tassie. He gets it in contests, runs, creates, takes players on, thumping left footer, and well built. Some has compared to Simon Black, but I think he is more like those type Swans mids. A must GET. A leader. Ready to go round 1 2014. footnote: pick #20 ish - Nathan Freeman (Sandringham), will be around this draft pick and is ready to go, tough, a leader and local kid.

Question is "why" come to Melbourne apart from Money or for fringe players to "get a game". Targets as at 8 June: - Dylan Shiel (GWS) 3years $$$ - Taylor Adams (GWS) 3years $$$ Fringe: - Maverick Weller (Suns) - Liam Anthony (Kangas) - Mitch Hallahan (Hawks) - Jarryd Lyons (Crows) - Aiden Riley (Crows) - Matthew Jaensch (Crows)

Yes support bringing back J-Mcd. Huge MISTAKE in retiring the captain off ... OMG Bailey mistake #12.

as per 3 times already, we need kids that want to play for us. He has talent, the desire and is father son eligible. Sign him up. Good sign that he has made SA under 18s a year ahead of schedule.
