    2015 Western Australian Draft Prospects

    East Perth Colts this year? Was one of the worst years, bad coaching has lead some of the standout boys leaving. Namely Della Franca and Hadden. These country kids didn't get enough support from club or coaches. Della Franca left and played league for Bunbury, had a really good run with them...

    Ye can play ok but have u watched him not a team player kicks to himself in the kick outs and handballs to other players but always wants it back. Good plan if you want stats of 45 per game. To be honest needs to work on attitude seems to get aggressive when things don't go his way.

    Wright is not old enough for draft this year. Don't see too many WA boys getting drafted this year, could only get one WA boy in all Australian team after 18s Championships and that was on the interchange and was an underage player. Looks like only 3 to 4 are getting a look in on the Phantom...

    Do you see any 18 year olds who didn't make state 18s having a chance?

    Any thoughts on which WA guys have a chance of being drafted this year?

    Ok so less kids are playing AFL football so that relates to less talent is that right? Wouldn't the same thing be happening in other states, but they seem to still be able to produce talent. What is WA doing wrong, it can not all be blamed on funding.

    Della Franca is just a prime example of a young guy who has missed an opportunity to show his talent due to bad selection and there are other guys who have missed the same opportunity these more mature guys might have give you your ball muscle.

    I hope your right about the 1998 group but they certainly have not make a difference this year with their football and athletic abilities lets hope that they get the development they need next year so they turn out as good as you reckon. Why would you abandon a under 18s team would you not try...

    OK but playing these underage players has been to the detriment of our current 18 year olds is that really fair. These underage players should be given the chance to train with the 18s squad but not play in championship. Treat it as a development year. Maybe if the academy developed this...

    If you are saying the talent is not there then why isn't it. If the Academy is doing its job then it should have selected 18 year olds that do have the talent like Della Franca. Some talented 18 year olds have missed out so that under age players can play and that certainly hasn't paid off.

    2015 Western Australian Draft Prospects

    I don't know that you can put it all down to funding. I just think the whole set up is wrong. These boys are taken in as 16 year olds and the Academy seem to be able to turn them out OK but the problem is that there is nothing for the gap year (17 year olds) and this is were the system is...

    Yes something is very wrong with the state academy they seem to do ok with the 16s but either their development of talent is not working or their selecting the wrong players. Most of the staff have been with the academy for more than 10 years maybe been their too long. Needs a change.
