    List Mgmt. Back2Back Rorts Baby (aka 2026 draft thread)

    for the record, not sure this commentary is fair. I was critical of the academy when my young fella was playing u9's and I had zero idea if he was any good. 80% of my criticism and concerns have primarily been around player welfare and communications and respect for the club competition, not...

    Player Watch Welcome to Collingwood Tyan Prindable

    His parents are also outstanding footy volunteers at community footy level. Just good people and a talented kid prepared to work. Very exciting to see a local kid I've watched for many years head to the Pies!

    they 100% do tell players they will take them at certain points. The crows told Curtain they would take him, the Lions were aware, and got in just before them and overlooked their own academy tall (Waller) in the process.

    Player Watch Welcome to Collingwood Tyan Prindable

    The Lions definitely wanted him, and they had a staff member sitting outside his draft party with a polo and playing jumper ready to go. He's a great story, I've seen quite a bit of him over the years and he just didn't ever give up despite many doors being closed on him for no apparent reason...

    QAFL 2025

    Bridport and its mainly about playing with his best mate. We were told 12 months ago they wanted another GC team, so its no surprise. At least this time the Premiers are being elevated and will be competitive with their own existing talent. We have 2 struggling QAFLW clubs less than 10 mins...

    QAFL 2025

    Reville & Arnold - who else?? I don't think anyone is looking at what their origin state is, 20+ have been rookied out of VFL - that's the only number that matters. My view is that you'd want to dominate QAFL first before you head south for the SANFL or VFL, otherwise you're in for a shock....

    Toast A very Special Bruce - Reville bandwagon

    I didn't get my 251-1 Norm Smith odds, but never been happier to see a bloke win a flag! Pies till I die, but go Lions!

    Draft Expert Davo-27's 2025 Draft Thread

    My young bloke is in and around this age group up here, so I've seen them all since they were 11-12. I always felt Patterson in this years draft and Murray in next year's have been the standout players in QLD for their age groups respectively. Not sure either will be the earliest picks, but...

    Preview 2026 AFL Draft General Discussion

    I see alot of chat around about how Owen and Murray are so far ahead in QLD of everyone else in this age group, and I've often tended to agree. But gee that Archie Hill from the Suns was good yesterday. Good runner, clean skills, willing to take the game on and oozes leadership. Great to see...

    Preview 2026 AFL Draft General Discussion

    Can only assume Owen not available for some reason. He played in a QAFL Senior premiership last Saturday and appeared to complete the game uninjured, so its a mystery why he wouldn't be there. He's comfortably 1 or 2 in Queensland in this age group, with a decent gap to 3rd.
