List Mgmt. MSD 2025 Prospects and Discussion Thread.

[Better Loosen Up]

I've only done a couple of MSD prospects so far but will be adding more now that we're getting closer to that happening:

Like Tom Evans. Uses the ball well and could be a Caleb Daniel replacement down the track. Not sold on Floyd.

 

[The Nostradamus]

We do have a couple of KPF who we are trying atm, namely W.Dawson and Maley . While bringing in Archer May sounds like a good option were does he sit in getting a game amongst the other 2? Surely they need more game time to see if they can hold down that position. We are desperatley in need of a small crumbing forward atm and Frank Szekely , to me, would be a good fit. We have a small defensive forward now in Konstanky and Paul Curtis is also very good defensively also. If the club do pick May then it says to me the they dont think they currently have a player who can fill that spot.

l'm sure Brady will make the right choice....

think Archie May would put immediate pressure on darling and maley

and be a long term option also

 

[Sphynx]

Don’t see what the bedwetting is about really. His movement looks much improved and very promising.

Darling will be gone in 18 months.

Teakle will be gone.

Dawson is a defender.

Maley has played 2 games.

I’d argue we need another throw at the stumps for a KPF than we do a defender with Whitlock/Dawson both young investments down back. They are both problem positions for the club (and have been for about 6 years) no doubt.

We aren’t getting Matthew Scarlett

in the MSD this year anyway.

The comparisons to Jacob Edwards are unfair. We might recruit this kid out of state league footy as a 20 year old. Edwards was recruited from 10-12 games for Sandy Dragons and Mentone Grammar. He’d never played anything close to WAFL.

 

[giantroo]

Very impressive
Agile, competitive and a big build

Good set shot too

I’m all aboard the Archie May bandwagon

His disposal, marks and tackle numbers look decent for a young KPF.

 

[ohh_v]

Is this Archer May media hype recruiters from other clubs trying to get us to pick up another dud ala Edwards?

They are some incredibly impressive stats for a young key forward prospect. I like his habit of kicking multiple goals. What is really impressive is his ability to kick goals from zero possessions.

If he's that good then we should definately get him...

Did it back to back as well to prove it wasn't a fluke.

 

[giantroo]

Must be the tips he's getting from Dermie.

 

[DocSholl]

As soon as he started getting possessions he started kicking points. Red flag

 

[King Corey]

What is really impressive is his ability to kick goals from zero popossessions.

Basically the inverse of everyone in our forward line not named Paul Curtis.

 

[Passmore]

[Shinboner1]

another small sized key forward?
Surely we've learnt our lesson.

Nah, he has been there abouts as a potential draftee since 2023. in 2023 he played as an overager for Sandy and kicked plenty of goals while also getting a few games exposure in Richmond's VFL side. Played some decent enough games in the VFL last year, but after a big pre-season he has improved his athleticism, and physique and there has been a notable shift in his consistency of performance in the WAFL this year.

I guess I've just been conditioned to us being duped and/or not taking any advantage good opportunities to shore up our list in the MSD when we've pretty much always had first crack at it.

 

[scottywiper]

Wraps on Archie May from WAFL are very good. Huge upside supposedly.

OK - so he's off the shopping list for us.

I'm going to start to worry if he changes his name to May-Brereton in the next few weeks.

 

[King Corey]

Has Archie May got a skinny younger brother who isn't sure if he wants to be in the AFL?

Asking for Brady Rawlings a friend.

WAFL SANFL State game this weekend

While breaking a five-year losing run against the Croweaters and representing the State with pride were the main focus points, Read said the match would also be a fantastic opportunity for several players looking to put their name forward for the AFL Mid-Season Draft later this month.

“We’ve picked a team to win but there’s definitely an opportunity there for the guys in the team,” Read said.

“We saw it with Blighty (Peel Thunder product Jacob Blight) who was picked by Richmond in last year’s mid-season draft.

“(Peel defender) Michael Sellwood stands out as I’ve seen him week in, week out and know what he’s capable of. He’s still only 21.

“Then plenty of others like (Subiaco pair) Taj Schofield and Archer May, (East Fremantle midfielder) Milan Murdock and (Claremont small forward) Zac Mainwaring.

 

[chubbspeterson]

Yeah Burmeister looks a bit more Jacob Edwards ruck/fwd type.

 

[HugeJohnson1]

Cooper Trembath from our VFL squad is an interesting one.

 

[Mr north man]

Looking at who we could or should go after

Small/Fwd : Frank Szekely

KPF : Archer May

Defense : Michael Sellwood

And North / Brady select with pick #2 ..........................................?

Mario Turco

 

[LB2Snake]

God damn that is disappointing.

we should be looking at all avenues to improve this part of our club, especially at the moment with the soft cap restrictions.

Not surprising. I hate the way our football club has been run.
It’s been pretty pathetic for years and years and why we are in the mess we are in.
