Not only did we play him, but we played him in the role he excelled at as a junior which resulted in him getting drafted which also happens to be the position he which he will continue to play at AFL level. And lo and behold he looks comfortable and confident in his role form day 1. As opposed...

Amazing. The same supporter group who complained about the jacked up prices for flights to Brisbane last week and will undoubtedly have similar complaints next week for the prelim if they get through (access to tickets, cost of tickets/ getting to Melbourne etc) cant sell out their home semi...

There was actually footage of JHF coming to the bench and Ken handing the phone to him. Every other coach who is coaching from the bench has headphones on, are constantly communicating with the box, constantly up and talking to the players. Ken is sitting there spectating the game. Port will...

My son was 10 when we went to the 2017 grand final. He bawled from halfway through the third quarter til well after the final siren. Then the following year in the Showdown when we got the lead back only to have Motlop kick the winner for them with seconds to he threw himself on the floor...

Independent assessments are important. On top of that I reckon that if a team takes a player off for an HIA then the sub can come on the ground for the 20 minute assessment time and therefore not disadvantaging the clubs in terms of numbers / rotations etc. Then if the player passes the HIA they...

Having a son who is going through junior footy ranks I find it remarkable how little junior coaches value kids with footy IQ and good skills if they're not getting 25-30 touches a game. They value contested possession, accumulation of possessions (quantity over quality) and the occasional showy...

No he's not related to Kym - or at least he's not Kym's son. He was under 16 last year so would be under 18 now

I would love so much for the “grand final finally back at the MCG where it belongs” to be played between 2 non Victorian teams

Just curious- does anyone know what our NGA / Father son program actually involves?

SA schools State under 15 team won the Gold medal at the Carnival. Some serious talent in that age group. I believe they were undefeated.

Noah is a good player. He is under 15 age so bottom end under 16 and still getting under 16 games at sturt. Much like Jeff Rozenbilds at Norwood and Lachlan Sands at the Eagles. I'm pretty sure they all made the under 15 schools state team playing this week. Might be a chance in next years Under...

Thanks!

Is it better to jump on Massimo as a cash gen rookie even though he’s already gone up in price a fair bit or a first gamer like Bendendo? Going Hobbs to Bont But trying to decide whether to get the cash via Clark to Massimo Or Jeffrey to Bendendo Mass has a low BE and has held his spot for a...

Ned Atkinson is a gun. Seen him play a fair bit if school footy.

I know you watch predominantly first VIII however if you get an opportunity to watch the Sacred Heart 10A's then its worth it - although I dont know how many of their absolute guns will play First VIII. This under 15/16/ year 9/10 cohort across the state is actually incredibly strong in both...

Also - probably more relevant to the NGA thread but also relevant to sanfl/juniors - the sanfl is in the process of doing their talent ID trials to nominate players for the AFL National Diversity Leadership program for Multicultural and Indigenous U15 boys and girls. Through these trials some...

Few things to share. Tyson Roberts - Matt Roberts brother has just started at Saints. Under 16's at South as well I believe. Training with the First 18. The Sacred Heart 10A team is absolutely chock full of talent - their best 22 is a 20 goal better side than any other school - so much so that...

He played district cricket for East Torrens here in SA a few seasons ago

Tom Kelly made 105 off 54 in a T20 against East Torrens yesterday. Batted 3.

There are lots of tickets available for the Melbourne Brisbane game. Just got an email from Ticketek and had a look to see what was available

Just wanted to clarify- would your position / opinion on this incident, including the unconditional support for the player involved and desperate want for both sides of the story as well as the name of the official involved made public for “fairness” - if this exact incident involved Charlie...

oops, my bad. Just a joke anyway!!

My son had a genius idea. After the warm feels of the Mackay, Lynch, Gollant goals we run a couple of extra players on the ground, ask for head count, score wiped to zero. The moral team building "victory" along with pick 2!!

Also probably hasn't played much for WWT this season as he has been in the St Peters First 18 for most of it. (ps I am not related to him in anyway - just seen him play and been very impressed. Strong, reasonable pace, good inside / out game and good skills on both sides. Also a very unselfish...

WWT Sanfl under 16's. Started at Saints this year. Played 3 games in 9A's then in firsts ever since. In his first First 18 game saints got 8 points down against Rostrevor with 7 minutes to go. Slotted 2 in a row to take the lead / win including the second being a very tough shot from the pocket...

Since you appear to have some links to Saints - curious what you think (if you've seen much of him) of young Jett Hasting playing first 18 for St Peters as a Year 9?

Comes from a good family so Hamish will like him ;)

I have a lad going through the junior district system. We heard that SACA's response to the Hussey report was going to be to get rid of the Senior D grade, change from u14/16 comps to u15/u17 comps and to get rid of the junior whites competition's in each grade. Not sure if it is still going...

Jesus, my son's under 13 games had 18 minute quarters (no time on obviously but still!) And I reckon his year 8 school footy games were 20...

Yes. Rehearsal in case they need to at short notice.
