One or 2 may be available at our pick but it depends how they are ranked. Now that Tracc has committed and Riv is giving mid a shot and pup looks like he will make it Trainor may be a chance. . Luke Trainor did not play round 19 Coates but had a cracker round 18. Just keeps getting better as the season progresses. See rookie me scouting motes below. Beneath i have included the link to COATES STATS FOR THE SEASON TO DATE. Interesting. #23 Luke Trainor Key Defender | 194cm | 10/04/2006 Stats: 33 disposals, 10 marks, 3 inside 50s You’d be forgiven for thinking Trainor was a midfielder given how often he popped up in the front half, getting forward as often as possible early in the piece, and contributed to chain possession plays for his side. Though, he was his typical self with his aerial presence when Geelong attempted to get into its forward half. With some freedom to push forward, Trainor utilised his precision kicking heading forward, often kicking well to the advantage of his teammates on the lead. Trainor looked a little rushed and unclean at times under pressure, but his effort never wavered. Stats Leaders: 2024 Coates Talent League H&A - Aussie Rules Rookie Me Central

Now our number 5 is staying if Trainor is available at our pick we may take him.

GREAT NEWS!!!! We can all get on with it now.

wow, from 1/7/24. Makes the media look like dills. Will not help tracc if he decides to lodge a grievance. In the end Tracc has not requested a trade. Maybe he wont. Maggs and blues fo not have the cap space or picks.

Coates round 19 Rookie me scouting notes. Defender. He seems to have some of the spark and swagger of his vbottom age season. Showed composure and delivered the ball efficiently. Repelling attacks with sharp intercepts. 20 disposals. Likely rookie pick on potential.

Is there a definitive list of Tracc's beefs with the club? I guess there will not be until he makes a statement. The club will not likely go into specifics. In the meantime the media make up stories. also in the meantime the club should play hard ball.

It may be some players think our window is closed and want out. Same thing happenning at the Tigers Player contacts need to give clubs more rights to protect against selfish so and so's.

Sounding like brand $ influencing traccs decisions. The AFL ticked off our doctors processes. Culture. What is culture. Define it. One player suffering ADHD is hard for that player but the fact that player is now on a good space shows how hard the club worked to assist that player. Should boost the list. Big tick. I hope we trade him and get a fair deal. But we have to play the hard ball game in the meantime.

He is only gone only if we get a fair deal. Blues Pick 11,pick 31 and future 1st? Don's pick 8, pick 28 and future 1st? Could be a smokey. They are a pretty big club but no finals- tracc the difference? Blues could trade McKay to Don's. We get the bounty from Blues for Tracc?? May well be if Blues want tracc they have to move on a big money player for cap reasons.

Looking at Twomeys and Rookie me top 30 they are in the main reasonably similar. Most are within 2 or 3 picks of picks. Eg Twomey has Lalor at pick 9, Rookie me at pick 7 The major differences are Twomey - Langford at 3 and Rookie at 10. Twomey has Armstrong (KPF) at 8 , Rookie me has him at 18. Twomey has Shanahan (KPF) at pick 21, Rookie has him at 16 Late in their picks Twomey has Dattol at 29and Sims at 30 - Rookie me not included. Rookie me has Mraz and Jaques at 29 and 30 but no inclusion on Twomeys. So over all fair agreement apart from a few players mentioned above.

He is right no one can nail down the issues. Even Caro who has bagged our handling of many issues cant nail down the issues and questioned whether Tracc could be a bit selfish. I think for us to get a good deal it has to be North. Picks 2 and 20 for starters.

Tracc is on a long term contract. North would be interested in him for sure. Pick 2 and compo pick 20 for starters. Tracc is 28 and hitting his straps. Tracc can get 2 slices of the pie - gets out of the Dees and gets a local club. We only get one slice of the pie - a live with deal. Still overall balanced in Traccs favour but i can live with it. Contacts = 2 way give and take

The Age is talking McKay. We would also want their 1st round.

He is only gone if we get a fair deal.

Plus we will not be effected by saints 1st round compo if it eventuates.

Better not bloody trade it.

I would want Crows 2nd round pick circa 27 and their future 3rd round pick to use for our FS and Academy picks in 2025. ANB is clearly better player than McAdam.

Pick 6 in the bag.

HUN article saying Viney will extend

HUN article just in. Viney to extend.

So far off the list: Smith, Gus, ANB, BB = 4 Talk of Viney going to North. Possibly all up 5. Then others?? Hunter and Schache likely to go?

Pretty well close. Kentfield may be given an extension. We have pick 7 and ANB pick say early 20's, the Swans 2nd rounder and a pick in the 40's. We should go to the draft IMO. We usually trade up and often use a future pick. No doubt we will consider our FS Yze and Academy Mentha. Care will be taken in using futures due to White and Ah - Mu coming in next year.

He has not announced his retirement so cannot be considered for a 'special' game umtil at least then. My view would be no in any case. We are going with, JVR, Petty and Disco.

Round 14 Coates, Oakleigh Chargers , Round 14, 2024 Scouting Notes: 2024 Coates Talent League - Round 14 - Aussie Rules Rookie Me Central Noah has improved as the season has progressed leading to a couple of games at Casey where he did well. We will pick him up for sure. He looks like he will adapt to a strong defensive forward role like ANB. 7 tackles in his 2nd game at Casey. Lets hope he slips through. #15 Noah Yze Defender/Midfielder | 190cm | 12/04/2006 Stats: 23 disposals, 4 tackles, 6 inside 50s A prospect of intrigue to Melbourne fans as a father-son this year, Yze produced arguably his best game to date. The versatile 190cm prospect started in defence and was then thrown into midfield as a good size matchup for the likes of Josh Smillie and Oliver Greeves. His strength was evident when tackling, while also absorbing contact well and looking quite comfortable in the clinches. Overall, he performed solidly in both roles and held his own against handy opposition.

I agree the club have taken a cautious approach and decided to give him a couple of VFL seasons and another pre season. If we were a bottom club he would have played but i support our clubs position to ease him in. Also Goody has made it clear in a few post game pressers that he intends to play JVR, Petty and Turner. That looks like it may well work out well. If we can squeeze Jeffo in next season we may be able to move Petts or Disco back?
