Preview 2025 AFL Draft General Discussion

[Lach72]

No idea. If they're not a Lions academy kid in the next 3 drafts, I've little interest in watching vids of every kid in this years draft class.

Thanks for this riveting interaction

Archie Daffy looks like a steal for the father son, has some very exciting assets to his game.

He's not this draft. He's bottom age.

interesting...3 Rucks.

One or two will play forward you'd think. McCarthy maybe more forward than ruck, we'll see. I'd like to see him more forward.

Any sign of the mysterious Tom.Phillips (EF) who has a scholarship at Scotch and is tied to Oakleigh?

He's in the WA state 18's squad and nobody, it seems, knows anything about him - including me.

Has been injured, plays wing and midfield he looked alright in the pre-season.

A post from baseline and a video from Footy Stuff. Things are really looking up for Thomas Burton.

Anyone who watched Oakleigh vs Brisbane academy able to give any notes on how Jack Ison went? Cursed APS not streaming their games has meant I've only seen a couple of highlights off baseline footy of him this year.

I was there. Went to support Doug Kerr's return to football from his ACL.
Jack did well I thought. Some mid and some forward time. Kicked a goal, was from a high free, but you take them. Seems to be a nice size.

Thanks Jen.

Looks a very nice size and appears a very nice athlete. Keen to see him play some more though the year.

Yeah, moves well from what I saw.
It was a good win by the chargers against the lions academy.

 

[Keystone agony]

Jesse Mellors 20 disp and 5 goal game put him on the map now?
